Abstract

The sources of pollution both direct and dispersed are directly influenced the water quality in the planet’s reservoirs. Higher concentration of chlorophyll-a are indicators of eutrophication, this is the reason why low cost techniques to monitoring it become a fundamental tools to achieve the goal and even more when the RAMSAR WETLANDS start to manifested symptoms of meso-trophic conditions in specific zones and periods. The actual methodology presented is based on the establishment of the correlation between chlorophyll-a (Cl-a), taken In-situ, and the reflection levels, taken from the optical satellite images analysis. A correlation was founded with the combination of bands as followed: b2, b3, b4, b5 and b7 in which spatial variations of chlorophyll-a was evident. The higher values were founded in the years 2018 and 2020 in the following zones Mojondinoy, El Naranjal, Santa Teresita and Santa Lucía.
