Abstract
To determine the index of quality of estuarine and marine waters for the preservation is Flora and fauna (ICAMPPFF) in delta of the Rancher river is performed valuation of the chemical nature, physical and biological and relates to its quality in natural state, the effects related to the anthropic activities as provided for in the Colombian legislation. Using computer tools is frequent the interpretation of data for monitoring an aquatic ecosystem and determine the quality of the water. The indexes reduce a large number of parameters monitored to a simple expression, which is represented by a number, a range, a verbal description, a symbol or even a colour. The Software ECAME v.01 calculates the quality index of estuarine and marine waters and processes information getting the results of the monitoring activities in the field. In addition, generates reports and histories. The ICAME v 1.0 is designed to process the information obtained in the research project "Evaluation of molluscs and crustaceans associated with roots submerged Rhizophora mangle Linnaeus, 1753 (Rizophoracea), physicochemical variables as indicators of the quality of the water and the impacts caused by anthropic activities in the estuary of the Rancher river, La Guajira (Colombia). In addition to the analysis of data obtained in research developed in the research line Biodiversity of estuarine ecosystems in the Guajira, Colombia.
