The Foundation of Ciudad del
Saber and the Nicaraguan Research Center
for Aquatic Resources (CIRA/UNAN) initiated a project in April of 2006 with the
objective to evaluate the relationship between anthropogenic activities in the
watershed and the actual state of contamination in the water of Lake Cocibolca.
The project activities have
integrated biological, physical and chemical data of the water of the lake with
results of satellite imagery and information collected from the watershed of Lake Cocibolca
to accomplish the following 9 results. This report is aimed to summarize the
activities completed to attain the given result. The technical results and
their interpretation are presented in the appendix and all figures and tables
