Impacto ambiental del turismo de buceo en arrecifes de coral

Abstract

El presente trabajo, tiene como objetivo general valorar el saber sobre los impactos del turismo de buceo en arrecifes de coral. En la primera parte, se presentan los antecedentes del buceo SCUBA, del turismo de buceo se argumenta su importancia económica y se caracterizan los operadores y los turistas de este nicho de mercado. A continuación, se presenta un análisis de los arrecifes de coral, su distribución geográfica, su relevancia económica y ambiental, su fragilidad y las causas y estado de su deterioro. Posteriormente, se describe la naturaleza, las causas y la importancia de los impactos directos del turismo de buceo. Asimismo, se revisan las líneas de análisis y autores que han tenido como objeto de estudio los impactos ambientales del turismo de buceo. Finalmente, se señala la importancia de evitar la homologación de las medidas para el manejo de los impactos directos del turismo de buceo. El objetivo específico del trabajo, es precisar que los parámetros físicos y bióticos, las modalidades de uso y el comportamiento de los buzos, son elementos a través de los cuales se reconoce la especificidad, que para la ocurrencia y naturaleza de los impactos directos, tiene cada sitio de buceo.

ABSTRACT: The general aim of this work is to assess the knowledge about diving tourism impacts on coral reefs. In the first section the background of SCUBA diving is looked at. The economic importance and critiques made of social issues of diving tourism are pointed out, and so are the main characteristics of those who offer diving services and of diving tourists. Next, a presentation of coral reefs is made including their geographical distribution, their economic and environmental significance, their fragility and the causes and status of their degradation. Later in the work a description of the nature, causes and importance of the direct environmental impacts of diving tourism in coral reefs is presented. Reference to authors and topics concerned with direct impacts of diving tourism on coral reefs is made. Finally, the importance of avoiding diving tourism impacts management with standard or universal tools is argumented. The specific aim of the work is to point out that, when it comes to impacts, the uniqueness of each diving site has to be recognized through its physical and biological characteristics and by the diversʼ behavior and patterns of use.
