Influence of extreme hydrological events in the quality of water reservoirs in the semi-arid tropical region
2018
Inland water environments, such as natural and artificial lakes, are increasingly vulnerable to extreme events (heavy rains, severe drought).
This study aims to evaluate if this events affect the water quality of tropical semi-arid springs. The results showed that the reservoirs
presented significant changes in the limnological variables between the rainy season and severe drought periods. However, different
behaviors were observed among reservoirs in the period of severe drought, which indicate that the responses of these environments
to extreme events should take into account other factors such as the climate of the region, the size and depth of the reservoir
