Restauración y estabilización del talud del humedal Arrieros, mediante la implementación de un diseño florístico mixto con especies nativas

Abstract

In the present work a mixed floristic design with native species is presented for the restoration of the natural wetland Arrieros in the municipality of Tocancipá. To do this, the characterization of Cerro Tibitó is analyzed, as well as its diametric and altimetric distribution. In order to create a reference ecosystem that allows orienting the conformation of floristic design. Plant formations are a response to climatic factors and as a whole, to the quality of the site. From their convergence, plant species share biological characteristics that allow identifying, recognizing and classifying a type of forest. These characteristics are manifested in the similar patterns that species acquire in terms of their demands for light, capacity for regeneration and growth, and methods of distribution and propagation. The analysis of the climatic behavior of the area made it possible to establish that Cerro Tibitó and the Arrieros Wetland, correspond to a place with a monomodal rainfall regime, isothermal temperature and a life zone called dry forest-Montano Bajo. The stratified preferential sampling carried out, allowed to establish a total of six circular plots with area of ​​0.1 ha, where individuals with d1,3> 3cm were identified and registered. Of whom, in addition, his total height, commercial and projection of glasses in the X and Y axes was obtained. The data allowed to construct the altimetric distribution with intervals of 1m and a diameter distribution with class intervals every 10 cm. The analysis of these data allowed us to identify that the state of the lake belongs to an early secondary succession, where the species Myrcianthes leucoxyla, Myrsine guianensis, Daphnopsis caracasana and Symplocos theiformis stand out.
