Estimación de la recarga en lechos fluviales mediante sondas TDR flexibles durante eventos de avenida (Río Andarax, Almería)

Abstract

[ES] En este trabajo se describe la metodología y la instrumentación instalada en el cauce fluvial para la medida de la infiltración directa en la zona no saturada asociada a las crecidas en el río Andarax (Almería), y se presentan los datos preliminares registrados en el primer año de funcionamiento de la estación. El objetivo final de este seguimiento es cuantificar la recarga a largo plazo de los acuíferos aluviales someros, asociada a eventos de crecida. La estación de medida se localiza en las proximidades de la localidad de Gádor, y permite el registro de los contenidos de humedad en la zona no saturada mediante sondas TDR flexibles (15 en total) hasta los 10 m de profundidad. Igualmente, se dispone de sondas para el registro del niveles del agua superficial durante la crecida y de las variaciones del nivel piezométrico. Los resultados preliminares muestran claramente que la metodología utilizada permite obtener datos de infiltración en la zona no saturada del suelo de manera continua y en tiempo real con mínimas perturbaciones de suelo. El registro de un evento ocurrido el 7 de Enero de 2006, de duración estimada de 7 días y cuyo calado máximo se ha registrado en 7 cm, permite demostrar que el hidrograma de crecida tiene una respuesta clara en el contenido de humedad del suelo en el perfil estudiado, con aumentos de hasta el 5% de humedad en sondas a profundidades superiores a 9 m. Analizando los cambios ocurridos en el nivel freático podemos comprobar que los datos obtenidos en el perfil estudiado son extrapolables al conjunto de la zona no saturada y con ello elaborar una estimación de la recarga.

[EN] This work describes the methodological procedure and the instrumentation installed to monitor the infiltration through the vadose zone associated with flood events of the Andarax River (Almeria). First, the preliminary data recorded in the station’s first functional year are presented and discussed. The final objective of this monitoring was to quantify the long-term shallow alluvial aquifer recharge related to flooding. The monitoring station is located near Gador, and records the moisture contents through the vadose profile using 15 flexible TDR probes (FTDR) reaching depths of 10 m. In addition, water surface and groundwater piezometric levels are recorded. The preliminary results clearly show that the methodology chosen permits the collection of real time and continuous infiltration data in the vadose zone with minimum soil disturbances. The 7 January 2006 event recorded, 7 days in length and whose maximum flood height recorded was 7 centimeters, demonstrated that the flood hydrograph gave a clear response in the soil moisture content of the profile studied, with increases in soil water content of up to 5% for soil depths below 9 meters. Analyzing the changes in the ground water level it is obvious that the infiltration data can be applied to the whole vadose zone and therefore the aquifer recharge can be estimated.

Este trabajo se ha realizado con la financiación del Proyecto Europeo WADE (FloodWater recharge of alluvial Aquifers in Dryland Environments, contrato no. GOCE-CT-2003-506680), y del proyecto CICYT PALEOREC “Infiltración en lechos fluviales y recarga de acuíferos relacionadas con avenidas y paleocrecidas en ríos efímeros” (Proyecto CGL2005-01977/HID).
