Importancia de las infraestructuras de riego tradicionales en la conservación de la avifauna en el entorno de humedales protegidos: el caso de Carrizales de Elche

Abstract: Resumen. Las infraestructuras de riego como acequias, azarbes o embalses conforman un complejo sistema de abastecimiento de agua de gran extensión en los ecosistemas semiáridos Mediterráneos. En este sentido, el caso de Carrizales es paradigmático. Entorno rural situado entre los Parques Naturales de El Hondo de Elche-Crevillente y Las Salinas de Santa Pola, surcado por una extensa red de canalizaciones y balsas que han acabado por estructurar y conectar el territorio en torno a la necesaria presencia del agua… Show more

“…In these areas, in past centuries, the wetlands had a high percentage of endorheic and poor drainage, but geographically they constituted the ideal space for the development of agriculture (Box 2004). Colonization and the need to cultivate vast tracts of unused land in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as well as illness associated with wetland fauna (Box 2004;López Pomares et al 2014) justified the drying and transformation of the land uses of these spaces until the complete disappearance of most of them (Casado et al 1993).…”

“…The existence of traditional water systems in inland wetlands, both for irrigation and drainage, have historically contributed to the maintenance of a unique culture and identity, but at the same time to the biodiversity of the landscape, which however has not been sufficiently studied despite its importance and its similarity to other natural river environments (López Pomares et al 2014). Traditional irrigation systems although similar to other fluvial ecosystems, cannot be considered proper natural habitats.…”
