MAR MAR CHIQUITA or Ansenuza - CORDOBA PROVINCE
ARGENTINA REPUBLIC
HOW LONG?
Our Laguna Mar Chiquita , Ramsar site Argentino, is being highly impacted by its tributaries. Scientists of the stature of Dr. Enrique Bucher and others in the National Academy of Sciences of the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba and CONICET investigations have been invaluable. have also left messages on concern the future of the Sea or Salt Lake endorheic . As an example of the problems that can cause the man to the mismanagement of these systems, not just bring pictures of the Laguna de Mar Chiquita, which can be observed, "feathers" or "Salt and Dust Clouds", as wind blows from the South or North. Satellites have taken photos, a warning to those who from the governments should address this issue.
Otherwise this mismanagement followed by the states, because it is a river shared by the provinces of Córdoba (with its two rivers: Xanaes and Suquía ) Santiago del Estero and Tucumán (through the Sali-Dulce system ); not know that can happen in the future.
As an example of the high human impacts have "The Aral Sea disaster." Below we have established two links so the reader can see that can happen when we "dominate" and "not caring" nature.

SECOND LINK: AL CLUB DEL MAR AND THE ARAL SEA DISASTER
Results
The Aral Sea now occupies half its original size and volume accounts for a quarter, 95% of nearby swamps and wetlands have become deserts and over fifty delta lakes have dried up, with an area of \u200b\u200b60,000 hectares.
This lake served as a buffer against extreme weather in the area, so its huge decline has made it harder winters and summers. Nor must we forget the tremendous drought in the last few years, countries in the region.
The drying has exposed more than 30,000 kms. square salinized sand that the wind brings in millions of tons over distances of over 200 kms.
This also resulted in a lowering of water table level dropped from 53 to 36 meters. Commercial fishing, after disappearing for 28 of the thirty species of fish that inhabit these waters and get many fishing villages 60 kms. of the lake disappeared.
