| Zusammenfassung: | Currently, the La Copa reservoir, located in the municipality of Toca, Boyacá, built in 1990 for the regulation of salts from the Chicamocha River and the buffering of current systems during rainy seasons, was characterized in exploratory studies in 1993 by Ruiz and Camacho, and, in the same year, by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO); for the purpose of agro-food potential in developing countries. Currently, the system has an important role not only ecologically for its water buffering but also as the main irrigation supplier for the middle basin of the Chicamocha River.
Consequently, this study highlights the importance of conducting follow-up and monitoring in these types of water systems and relates behavioral information regarding physicochemical, biological, and bacteriological variables. This report includes the results of an annual monitoring plan during the different periods of hydrological regime changes and the main sampling points defined during the reconnaissance of the study area. The analysis of the trophic state is also included, based on the estimation of the NH4 ion; the range proposed for lake classification by Vollenweider, and the application of the ICOTRO index based on the values obtained for the PO4 ion, baseline information, to identify preventive management strategies for anthropogenic activities carried out in the direct and indirect influence area of this important water resource, defining the importance of conducting periodic studies that provide knowledge to avoid alteration and increase the lifespan of this system. The knowledge of the physical-chemical, biological, and bacteriological behavior of the reservoir allows for the establishment of analytical elements regarding possible ecological alterations and to avoid or limit environmental degradation in case of negative impacts from the socioeconomic activities currently carried out in the area of influence of the water resource. |
