Caracterización hidrológica de la cuenca media y baja del rió Magdalena.

Abstract

The Dique channel has a great ecological, economic, and social influence, with fishing and the habitat of various ecosystems standing out. The middle and lower Magdalena area has suffered the overflows of the Magdalena River where irreversible damages were caused. The aim is to carry out research work to identify areas at risk of floods, based on the precipitation of previous years provided by IDEAM. The soil has specific characteristics that will allow us to measure humidity levels, capillarity, porosity and hydraulic conductivity, associating it with the amount of precipitation that will be projected in periods of 25, 50 and 100 years, analyzing the rainy seasons and being able to reduce the risk of floods in the area preserving the environment, and living things that benefit from the tributaries of said territory. The parameters that will be used for this hydrological and hydrodynamic modeling are fundamental and of limited access, with which it will be a fairly extensive analysis and will help conserve our water resources that are important and abundant in our country.
