Abstract

GALICIA HERNANDEZ, Esther. A historical approximation to the "original" conditions of functioning of the groundwater system and his superficial response in the microbasin of the city of Puebla. Invest. Geog [online]. 2015, n.86, pp.38-52. ISSN 2448-7279.  https://doi.org/10.14350/rig.41358.

In Mexico, specifically in Puebla, it has been very common that when action-plans about the management of the water or governmental interventions for the "territorial classification" are realized, they are done without the suitable knowledge of the ecosystems and natural affected spaces - environments. This has been more evident when it is about spaces associated with the functioning of the water system and particularly with the flows of groundwater. Due to the previously established it is necessary to lead towards new forms of water and territory management; for this it is proposed as aim of this work the construction of an historical-water frame of reference that allows a major comprehension of the functionality and evolution of the water system (conceived as the interaction between underground and superficial water) and specially of the recognition of his spaces-supports in the territory. This historical frame was understood and constructed as a platform of structured information from the system theory of Flows of Groundwater, whereby an approximation was made to the knowledge of the "original" conditions of functioning of the groundwater system and his environmental superficial manifestations in the microbasin of the San Francisco river, territory where Colonial Puebla was established. In order to possess the major quantity of historical precedents, the study included in general from the XVIth to the beginning of XXth century.

Keywords : Water system; flow systems; underground water; unload zones; territory; support material - nature.
