Abstract:

The interplay of the geochemistry of the lower stretch of the Luján River is analyzed with its natural geomorphology (basin features), local hydrometeorology (tidal regime and "sudestada" events) and the impact of polluted tributaries. Major ions, dissolved heavy metals and limnological variables were analyzed using multivariate techniques. The water quality of the mainstream of the Luján River, flowing through urbanized and industrialized areas is strongly and positively influenced by the input of the Paraná River through deltaic watercourses and is negatively impacted after receiving the discharge from polluted watercourses. The longitudinal spatial variations evidenced major discontinuities in the Lower Luján Basin, showing clearly the riverine and the deltaic water influenced zones. Seasonal variations were also marked and were either temperature driven or associated with the estuarine cycle and the "sudestada". © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
