Hello!! My name is Lucio Martinez, I love music, go for a walk, go camping and enjoy nature.
Tell us what the water concern in your country is!In the north of our country there are many floods and in the opposite south there is more and more drought, so there would be less and less drinking water and nothing is being done to mitigate this effect.
Characterization of the larval habitat of mosquitoes in Northern Patagonia, Argentina
Patagonia has a cold climate with a dry season during the mosquito breeding period. Little is known about the reproductive habitats in Patagonia and Aedes aegypti was found in Neuquén. Climate change could encourage mosquito migration to cold areas. Objective: to characterize the reproductive habitats of mosquitoes and identify the genera in Junín de los Andes. Methodology: hydrosphere and biosphere protocols of the GLOBE Program were applied. Results: Only the genus Culex sp. was found. The puddles are protected by trees and herbs, the water quality between the puddles is similar, with little oxygen, high turbidity and alkalinity. The diversity of macroinvertebrates is low compared to the river. Knowing the breeding habitats allows to design prevention and control systems.
