Abstract
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo realizar la caracterización de la componente ambiental del recurso hídrico para la zona de influencia del proyecto embalse Quilmo. Como pie de inicio de la caracterización, se realizó una campaña de recolección de información disponible, permitiendo así obtener una descripción detallada de las características del área de influencia del proyecto, abarcando los antecedentes climáticos, ambientales e hidrológicos. Para complementar el estudio y estimar de mejor manera los posibles impactos en la componente hídrica frente a escenarios de cambio climático se realizó un análisis de proyección de amenazas y vulnerabilidades ante los efectos adversos del cambio climático y el proyecto en estudio. Finalmente, frente a un escenario de cambio climático y escasez hídrica, se puede considerar que el proyecto llevado a estudio presenta ciertas tipologías idóneas como herramienta de adaptación al cambio climático.
The present study aims to characterise the environmental component of water resources in the area of influence of the Quilmo reservoir project. As a starting point for the characterisation, a campaign was carried out to collect available information, allowing a detailed description of the characteristics of the area of influence of the project to be obtained, including climatic, environmental and hydrological background. To complement the study and better estimate the possible impacts on the water component in the event of climate change scenarios, an analysis was made of projected threats and vulnerabilities to the adverse effects of climate change and the project under study. Finally, in a scenario of climate change and water scarcity, it can be considered that the project under study presents certain suitable typologies as a tool for adaptation to climate change.
