Multiparametric buoy for limnological monitoring of Laguna de Fuente de Piedra. Andalusia (Spain)

Located in the north of the province of Malaga, this lagoon is located in the municipality of Fuente de Piedra, where the involvement of its inhabitants in the historical conservation of the wetland must be highlighted.


The Fuente de Piedra Lagoon, with a protected area of ​​8,911.71 ha, is an important nesting, wintering and migratory place for waterfowl. It houses one of the most important colonies of flamingos in the Iberian Peninsula and even in Europe, which can be observed during the nesting period (March-July). Flamingo ringing has broad social participation, which allows for extensive scientific monitoring of the species.


For limnological monitoring of wetlands, multiparametric probes have been installed on watertight buoys that are energy autonomous and connected to the Internet. Every 2 hours, 5 environmental and aerial measurements are taken (temperature, barometric pressure, wind direction and intensity and GPS position) in addition to 10 submerged variables (Temperature at 4 depths, pH, Dissolved oxygen, Turbidity, conductivity, salinity, nitrates, chlorophyll, ultrasound depth).


Within the framework of the INDALO project, the probes will provide information as laboratories to assess the effects generated by Climate Change.

Purpose

Monitoring and alert system in real time to control the physicochemical characteristics of the water mass on a continuous basis to complement the monitoring of birds in wetlands.


The need arises when it is identified that the monitoring of sensitive wetlands in Andalusia was left incomplete by analyzing only the bird community, and not integrating the physicochemical characteristics of the water mass on a continuous basis. It was necessary to have knowledge of specific incidents in real time that would allow space managers to act (dumps, sudden changes in temperature, etc...).
