Abstract
Los cambios en el régimen hidrológico de los ríos como consecuencia de las actividades humanas, se consideran una de las principales amenazas para el mantenimiento de la integridad de los ecosistemas fluviales. Como respuesta a esta problemática, surgió a mediados del siglo XX el concepto de caudal ecológico. Aunque con diversas formas y definiciones, los caudales ecológicos se consideran una herramienta de gestión capaz de mitigar los impactos derivados de las alteraciones hidrológicas y cumplir así determinados objetivos ambientales. En Europa, la entrada en vigor de la Directiva Marco del Agua (DMA) en el año 2000 supuso un cambio en el paradigma de la gestión de los recursos hídricos. Desde entonces, la gestión pasó a estar orientada al objetivo de alcanzar el buen estado de las masas de agua continentales. Reconociendo los caudales ecológicos como una medida orientada a la consecución de este objetivo, numerosos países regularon e incluyeron en su legislación diferentes aspectos relativos al diseño, establecimiento y seguimiento de los caudales ecológicos...
The alteration of the hydrological regime of rivers caused by human activities is considered as one of the main threats to maintain the integrity of river ecosystems. In response to this problem, the concept of environmental flows emerged in the mid-20th century. With different forms and definitions, environmental flows are considered a management tool able to reduce the impacts derived from hydrological alterations and thus achieve specific environmental objectives.In the European Union, the entry into force of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) in 2000 meant a change in the paradigm of water resources management. Since then, water management decisions have been oriented towards the objective of achieving the good status of inland and coastal water bodies. Recognizing that environmental flows may contribute significantly to this goal, many countries included in their legislation different aspects related to the design, implementation and monitoring of environmental flows...
