Hydrodynamics and Environmental Impacts of a Coastal Lake in Chile

This case study focuses on the hydrodynamics of a coastal lake in Southern Chile and its impact on the water environment and human needs. It explores aspects of transport and mixing in stratified flows, discussing theoretical concepts and practical applications through experiments and numerical modeling. The study also addresses social and environmental issues related to the lake, including the decline of fishing and forced land-use changes for agriculture.

  1. Ingeniería Civil THE WATER ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN NEEDS: A CASE STUDY INVOLVING THE HYDRODYNAMICS OF A COASTAL LAKE IN SOUTHERN CHILE Yarko Niño Department of Civil Engineering, Universidad de Chile

  2. THE WATER ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN NEEDS … THIS WIDER SCOPE OF APPROACHING FUTURE PROBLEMS OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT … WHEN ALL THE COMPLEX ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL FACTORS MUST BE CONSIDERED IN A GIVEN SYSTEM TO MEET THEM WITH CREATIVE IDEAS AND TECHNOLOGY AT PRESENT STILL LARGELY UNKNOWN … (A.T. IPPEN, 1970)

  3. THE PLAN EXPLORE A SYSTEM WHOSE HYDRODYNAMICS HAS A STRONG IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND WELL-BEING OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES IN THE PROCESS DISCUSS ASPECTS OF TRANSPORT AND MIXING IN STRATIFIED FLOWS GO FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE (THROUGH EXPERIMENTS AND NUMERICAL MODELING)

  43. FINAL REMARKS PRESENT MOUTH BAR MANAGEMENT WOULD NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH FISH ECOLOGICAL DYNAMICS BETTER PRACTICE MUST COMPATIBILIZE FLOODING PROTECTION, WATER QUALITY, LAKE ECOLOGY, AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES WELFARE RESEARCH IS FUN BUT IS MORE FUN WHEN IT IS PUT AT THE SERVICE OF PROTECTING AND IMPROVING SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
