SMICHOWSKI, Humberto y CONTRERAS, Félix Ignacio. Morphometric analysis of the Santa Lucía river basin (Corrientes, Argentina). Rev. Geog. Amer. Central [online]. 2023, n.70, pp.297-320. ISSN 2215-2563. http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/rgac.70-1.11.
In this work, a morphometric study of the Santa Lucia River basin in the province of Corrientes-Argentina was carried out to determine its hydrological response, and to indicate the influence of morphometric factors on the intensification or attenuation of floods, which generates useful data for territorial planning. The results obtained from the quantification and measurement of the parameters show a basin with an elongated shape, relief with high erosive potential, very low slope, and a not very efficient drainage network; from which it is concluded that the basin will have gradual floods but extended in time.
