Cuantificación y evolución durante el siglo XX de los aportes de sedimento transportado como carga de fondo por el río Ebro al medio marino

Abstract

[ES] Las medidas directas del transporte como carga de fondo en el curso bajo del río Ebro y los cálculos efectuados a partir de ecuaciones empíricas son muy diferentes entre sí, como consecuencia de la presencia de fangos y de la poca disponibilidad de sedimentos tamaño arena en el lecho. Las relaciones entre el material transportado como carga de fondo y el material transportado en suspensión, así como los datos obtenidos a partir de las ecuaciones empíricas, coinciden en señalar una importante disminución del transporte como carga de fondo durante el siglo actual. Los resultados de las ecuaciones empíricas muestran unos aportes de 1.000.000 de Tm/año durante el primer tercio del siglo (1914-1935), de 730.000 Tm/año durante el período 1950-70, e inferior a 300.000 Tm/año en los 'últimos veinte años. Durante la última década los aportes calculados son inferiores a las 100.000 Tm/año. Estos datos reflejan sólo la reducción de la capacidad de transporte máxima del río, producida por la disminución del caudal a lo largo del siglo y no tienen en cuenta los efectos de retención de sedimentos en los embalses y la no disponibilidad de sedimento tamaño arena en el curso bajo del río. Las medidas directas del transporte por carga de fondo son inferiores a las calculadas empíricamente en cerca de dos órdenes de magnitud. Comparando estos resultados con la capacidad de transporte (320.000 Tm/año) en la zona litoral del delta del Ebro, se pone de manifiesto la existencia de un déficit sedimentario importante desde los años 70 hasta la actualidad, que se ha acentuado durante la última década

[EN] Estimations of the bedload transport in the lowest Ebro River were carried out by direct measurements and by empírica! equations. Results are very different due to the effect of the cohesive sediment deposited in the river bed and the shortage of sand availability in this part of the river. Relationships between the bedloa:d and the suspended load transport along with data from empírica! equations indicate a very important decrease of the bedload sediment transport in this river during the XX century. Results from equations show, a bedload supply of about 1.000.000 T/year during 1914-35; 730.000 T/year during 1950-70 and lower than 300.000 T/year in the last twenty years. During 1980-90 supplies are lower than 100.000 T/year. These data indicate the decrease of the maximu:tfi transport capacity produced by the water discharge decrease of the Ebro river during this century, but they do not consider the sediment retention and shortage of sand availability caused by the dams. Direct measurements of the bedload transport are one or two orders of magnitud lower th~m the empírical. Considerihg that the longitudinal transport capacity in the littoral zone of the Ebro delta is abqut 320.000 T/year there is a deficit in the sedimentary balance of the Ebro littoral system which has been increasing from the 70's up to now
