Activities and Results OUTCOME 1 1.1 Description of climatology, climate trends and projections for the region of the basins. After publishing the two documents “Understanding the climate of the Chinchina river basin" and "Understanding the climate of the Mantaro river basin” based on the climate analysis for both basins, the project began their dissemination and delivery to the different institutions and local stakeholders of the basins. The goal was to make known the results obtained and ensure that they will be considered for decision making in local and regional planning, especially regarding risk management. In Chinchina, the document was delivered to institutions such as Corpocaldas, Governorship of Caldas, municipalities of Villamaria, Manizales, Neira, Palestina and Chinchina, the Directorates of Climate Change and Water Resources of the Ministry of Environment and IDEAM, among others. Some copies were also delivered to Vivo Cuenca and have been widely disseminated among its visitors as well as in interviews with media attended by the Director of Vivo Cuenca. Regarding transfering climate information to communities, the Local Actiona Coordinator for Chinchina agreed with the Secretariat of Planning of the municipality of Villamaria and with CHEC socio-environmental management area to hold meetings with community groups with whom they work to carry out the socialization, both in climate and vulnerability issues. 1.4 Participatory process for the integration of formal knowledge and local knowledge. MANTARO 5 In this quarter, the terms of reference (ToR) for the hiring of a consultant for the rescue of ancestral knowledge on water harvesting, as well as traditional knowledge and practices for the prediction of extreme hydroclimate events in the Ichu River sub-basin and the Palca River micro-basin (two very important tributaries of the Mantaro river) were elaborated. The ToRs of the contract were drawn up; the terms of the contract and the products to be obtained from the consultancy were included. Due to the specific nature of the topic, a direct contract was made with the prior approval of the CIIFEN International Directorate. The Local Activities Coordinator of Mantaro basin suggested to contract Prof. Silvano Guerrero, who has a vast experience in similar works in the region. He has successful experiences in recovery of high Andean grasslands and wetlands ecosystems, and water harvesting. The contract was signed and the consultant sent the preliminary work plan that was reviewed by the Regional Coordinator; later, the consultant acquitted her observations, solved them and prepared a new work plan. The work plan adjusted to the requirements of the project was approved. This work will be articulated with the exchange of experiences between delegations of the Mantaro basin in Peru and Chinchina basin in Colombia. A final product of this consultancy will be a document that details the main knowledge and traditional practices of predictability of the occurrence of extreme hydrometeorological events and technologies of water harvesting, as well as two fora for transferring this knowledge to young people from the regions of Ayacucho and Junin. 1.5. Analysis of climate variability, hydrometeorological and extreme hydroclimate events and their impacts on basin territories. MANTARO 1.5.1. Master’s degree theses on the impacts of climate variability and climate change in basin territories. The thesis advisor Victoria Calle, M.Sc., is permanently monitoring the activities carried out by the two Master´s thesis, Gerardo Jacome and Weidi Flores. According to the 11th report sent by the consultant, the advances in the Master´s thesis work are the following: Gerardo Jacome: Thesis: "INDEXES OF CLIMATE EXTREMES OF RAIN AND TEMPERATURE IN THE BASIN OF MANTARO - PERU USING THE MODEL WRF (1981-2065)" In this quarter, Mr. Jacome took and passed his graduate exam prior to obtaining his master's degree. At the moment Mr. Jacome is waiting for the date for the thesis defense which will be in October. 6 Weidi Flores: Thesis: "ATMOSPHERIC ELECTRIC DISCHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH HEAVY RAINS, BETWEEN 2008 AND 2017 ON MANTARO RIVER BASIN " On September 3rd, the graduate school of La Molina National Agrarian University, approved the thesis project for Early Warning System (SAT, for its acronym in Spanish) for Atmospheric Electric Discharge for the Mantaro River Basin presented by Weidy Flores. The certificate EPG-CE- 001/09/2018 of approval by this instance is attached. The application for the degree exam has already been submitted, the date is still pending. The thesis draft is advancing and it is expected to be presented to the members of the qualifying Jury in the next weeks. In coordination with the project local team, the first two workshops for the peasant communities of Marcapomacocha and Huayao were held on August 17th and 18th. It is important to mention that both workshops served to explain to the local communities, the scope of the thesis project and the activities that will be carried out with the participation of the population and its authorities, as well as to know the residents' concerns regarding this topic. During the workshops in Marcapomacocha and Huayao, population´s great interest in the implementation of the SAT was confirmed and they committed themselves to support the initiative. The exercise for the simulation of the early warning system in the Marcapomacocha community is pending and was scheduled for mid-October. 7 CHINCHINA 1.5.5. Climate Agendas for the Municipalities of the Chinchina River Basin CORPOCALDAS had planned to have climate agendas for all the municipalities of the department. They hired the Catholic University in Manizales to carry out this work. Considering CIIFEN’s previous work in the 5 municipalities of the Chinchina river basin (Neira, Manizales, Villamaria, Chinchina and Palestina), CORPOCALDAS requested the project to carry out the agendas of these municipalities. This activity had not been considered in the planning of the project, but, the project had generated most of the necessary information for these documents. However, the Catholic University defined a content of the agendas that went beyond the issues addressed by the project: the agendas had to include mitigation issues, among other aspects, that were not part of the scope of the project. This led the project to reconsider the support in the development of the climate agendas of the 5 municipalities of the Chinchina basin. In this quarter,

    1 region, culture, and identities The Mantaro Valley: History and Regional Development Some colonial sources suggest that when the first Spanish troops arrived in the Mantaro Valley (see map) in 1533 they expected war. Instead,they were surprised to be hailed by thousands of natives who celebrated their coming with songs and feasts (Arguedas 1975:81). It was later that the invaders would realize that the native inhabitants of the valley—the Wan- kas—had been subdued by the imperial Incas long ago and since then had been their fierce adversaries.1 Thus,they saw in the arrival of the con- querors an opportunity for revenge and liberation from Inca rule. An al- liance,which was considered mutually beneficial,soon followed. The Wanka leaders saw in their collaboration a way of recovering the regional autonomy they had lost when the Incas arrived in the valley around 1460 (Espinoza Soriano 1973:68). The Inca state,while allowing the regional chieftains to maintain many of their privileges,had undermined their po- litical power to a great extent. They were closely supervised and severely punished if they did not comply with the policies of the empire. However, the Spaniards needed the local support to compensate for the greater forces of the Inca army. They were coming from Cajamarca in the north and were on their way to Cuzco,the capital of the Inca empire. For the journey they were in need of provisions and servicemen,which the caciques,the native 13 14 debating the past Map of the Mantaro Valley leaders,promptly provided.

Its source has therefore intrigued scholars and explorers for centuries. A river’s source is often defined as the most distant upstream point in the drainage basin. For the past several decades, the longest upstream extension of the Amazon River has been held to be the Nevado Mismi area of the Río Apurímac drainage. We overturn this longstanding view by employing topographic maps, satellite imagery, digital hydrographic datasets and GPS tracking data to show that the Cordillera Rumi Cruz (10.7320°S, 76.6480°W; elevation ∼5220 m) in the Río Mantaro drainage lies 75–92 km further upstream than Nevado Mismi.

  • Tectono-Stratigraphic History of the Huancayo Intermontane Basin, Central Peru
    Bol. Soc. geol. Perú 102: 63-78 (2007) © Sociedad Geológica del Perú SGP ISSN 0079-109163 TECTONO-STRATIGRAPHIC HISTORY OF THE HUANCAYO INTERMONTANE BASIN, CENTRAL PERU HISTORIA TECTÓNICA DE LA CUENCA INTERMONTAÑOSA DE HUANCAYO, PERÚ CENTRAL James M. Wise ABSTRACT Sedimentary sequences of the Huancayo intermontane basin in central Peru provide age constraints on the late Miocene regional Quechua III contractional deformation event, contribute evidence for younger contraction, and record major changes in the canyon and stream network during ongoing uplift of the Cordillera Oriental. A new 40Ar/39Ar date of 5.39±0.05 Ma on the Mataula Formation of the Jauja Group combined with a review of regional data indicates the Quechua III contractional event occurred between 4.8 and 5.4 Ma. The Huancayo basin was previously interpreted as a synformal trough, however basin depth and geometry remain unknown. Significantly, basement rock along the western basin margin was thrust over the Jauja Group, defining recent asymmetric basin closure development. Several major facies changes in the Pliocene to Recent basin deposition happened during the exhumation of the Precambrian crystalline rock of the Huaytapallana Massif of the Cordillera Oriental. These include abandonment of the Upper Pliocene (?) Torre Torre conglomerate, widespread deposition of the uppermost Pliocene-Pleistocene (?) Chupaca gravels from integration of the ancestral río Mantaro into the Huancayo basin, and arrival of Precambrian clasts into the Pleistocene to Recent Huancayo alluvial fans. Recent depositional patterns and Pleistocene folding of the gravels illustrate contraction in the basin, distinguishing it from other intermontane basins of Peru. Incisement of the Chupaca gravels and development of at least three stages of river terraces along río Mantaro may represent climate change.

  • Una Breve Aproximación Al Rol Del Qhapaq Ñan En El Proceso Conducente a La Formación Del Pueblo De Tambo, Sausa, Junín
    UNA BREVE APROXIMACIÓN AL ROL DEL QHAPAQ ÑAN Manuel F. Perales Munguía EN EL PROCESO Proyecto Qhapaq Ñan – Sede Nacional CONDUCENTE A LA Autor FORMACIÓN DEL PUEBLO DE TAMBO, 21 de febrero SAUSA, JUNÍN, PERÚ de 2020 El 24 de febrero de 1965 se creó el distrito de Sausa mediante Ley N° 15437, fijándose su capital en la villa homónima, categoría y denominación que le fueron otorgadas al antiguo pueblo de Tambo a través de la Ley N° 10155 del 30 de diciembre de 1944 (Aranda 2009: 25). No obstante, este último nombre –Tambo– posee una singular connotación histórica, pese a que en la actualidad está cayendo en desuso frente al de Sausa, el cual ha ido ganando terreno a partir de la adquisición del estatus distrital de la localidad.1 Considerando lo expuesto, el presente trabajo desarrolla un conjunto de planteamientos en torno al proceso que condujo a la formación inicial del pueblo de Tambo, que en la actualidad constituye el núcleo urbano del moderno distrito de Sausa, localizado sobre los 3371 msnm y dentro de la jurisdicción de la provincia de Jauja, en el departamento de Junín (figura 01). Dicho proceso tuvo hitos importantes, como el establecimiento del extenso complejo inca de Hatun Xauxa en la segunda mitad del siglo XV y la fundación de la ciudad hispana de Xauxa por par de Francisco Pizarro entre 1533 y 1534, consolidándose durante las décadas de 1560 y 1570, cuando alcanzó funcionamiento pleno el tambo colonial del mismo nombre.

Mariscal Castilla N° 3909-4089, Huancayo, Perú 2Universidad Nacional Intercultural “Fabiola Salazar Leguía” de Bagua, Jr. Comercio N° 128, Bagua, Perú Received: 5 August 2020 Accepted: 28 November 2020 Abstract In late December 2019, the emerging disease COVID-19 was identified as a global pandemic. Countries around the world have implemented various types of blockades to stop this infection. These health measures have led to a significant reduction in air pollution. However, the impact of these measures on aquatic environments has been little analyzed. In this context, the water quality of rivers in the Mantaro River basin was evaluated using multivariate statistical methods and heavy metal contamination indices during the health crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. Surface water samples were collected in triplicate from 15 sampling sectors at the end of the rainy season, between March and April. Concentrations of Cu, Fe, Pb, Zn and As were determined by the method of atomic absorption flame spectrophotometry. The average concentrations of heavy metals and arsenic in the rivers evaluated did not exceed the environmental quality standards for drinking water of the Peruvian, WHO and US EPA regulations, except for Pb, Fe and As in the Mantaro River and As in the Chia River.

Abstract (Limit: 200 words) This report is the result of an investigation of a massive landslide on the Mantaro River in Peru on April 25, 1974 which killed 450 people. It describes the landslide and events immediately following, which affected inhabitants and structures for a great distance downstream from the event. Vibrations caused by the mQving earth were equiva- lent to a magnitude 4.5 earthquak~.< The slide dammed the river and formed a lake which reached a depth of about 170 m and a length of about 31 km before overtopping the dam. Severe flooding caused the evacuation of 1000 people and destroyed roads, farms, and bridges. A description of the nature of the inspection trip is followed by detailed geographical and background data, nature of the slide material and mechanism of sliding, secondary effects, hydraulic model studies, seismological aspects, and disaster relief.
