Objective: To determine the potential water recharge areas in six Cartago micro-basins. Methods: We determined hydrogeological units through gauges, and physical and hydraulic properties on the field. We used topographic curves to generate a digital elevation model and longitudinal profiles. Additionally, we produced a land-use change map and determined soil water balance. Results: The area presents good hydrogeological conditions in terms of springs, pinpointing the hydraulic connection of the units, and the soil favors water recharge in the upper parts. Above, where the springs are located, half of the land hasforest cover, facilitating infiltration. The rest sustains agricultural activities (39% in the middle and lower parts of the basins). Forest areas present lower potential recharge values (approx. <611,4mm) than areas of crops and pasture (792,32- 796,29mm). Conclusion: The site presents good hydrogeological conditions and areas of crops and pasture have higher potential recharge values than forests. 2021 artículo científico 1659-4266 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=515679454008 es http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5156 UNED Research Journal / Cuadernos de Investigación UNED application/pdf Universidad Estatal a Distancia UNED Research Journal / Cuadernos de Investigación UNED (Costa Rica) Num.2 Vol.13 |
