Comprende la gestión de recursos hídricos en la Cuenca Amazónica, en este contexto, revisa instrumentos normativos tales como el plan nacional de recursos hídricos centrándose en los planes de gestión a nivel de cuenca amazónica así como la normatividad y los comités que allí se conforman.

Trata aspectos en torno al agua (distribución, importancia, consumo, acceso y uso y escasez) y la energía (potencial hidroeléctrico, políticas y planes de su relación con el agua) en el mundo y en el Perú.

This study evaluates the uncertainty in the estimation of annual and monthly sediment flows in four mountain basins of the Pacific Ocean in Peru. For this end, samples at different time scales (hourly, daily, and monthly) were recorded. The database was broken down into a numerical base to simulate several sampling frequencies. From these timing frequencies, the annual and monthly flow was computed. Likewise, we compare the observed and simulated data, calculating the degree of uncertainty using statistical tests. The results for the 25 and 75 percentiles show that there is a high temporal variability in these Andean watersheds, whose strategy of measurement of solid flows can vary from six to 12 days, thus underestimating ~ 20% annually. While for estimating suspended sediment yield (SY) to a monthly time step in the rainy season (December to May), a sampling frequency between 1-5 days,...
