En el presente proyecto se propone el estudio de las concentraciones de pesticidas en las áreas coralinas de Santa Marta y Parque Nacional Natural (PNN) Tayrona para determinar los posibles impactos ambientales causados y el riesgo al cual están siendo expuestos estas áreas bases de la sostenibilidad ecosistémica, la seguridad alimentaria y económica de la región caribe, y fundamentales para hacer frente al cambio climático. Este estudio permitirá trazar una línea base del grado de toxicidad expuesto en las zonas coralinas y permitirá plantear propuestas de sistemas de tratamiento adecuados en vertimientos puntuales y diseñar estrategias y procesos de degradación de pesticidas in-situ que permitan la recuperación de las fuentes hídricas disminuyendo la llegada de pesticidas y posibles impactos en las zonas costeras. Description: This project proposes a study of pesticide concentrations in the coral reefs of Santa Marta and Tayrona National Natural Park (PNN) to determine the potential environmental impacts and the risks to which these areas are being exposed, which are key to ecosystem sustainability, food, and economic security in the Caribbean region and essential for addressing climate change, are being exposed. This study will establish a baseline of the level of toxicity exposed in coral reefs and will allow for the development of appropriate treatment systems for specific discharges and the design of in situ pesticide degradation strategies and processes that will allow for the recovery of water sources, reducing the influx of pesticides and their potential impacts on coastal areas.
