WATER RESOURCE BALANCE AND PROPOSED MEASURES FOR SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT IN THE FOUR SECTIONS OF CHAPULTEPEC FOREST | WATER RESOURCE BALANCE AND PROPOSED MEASURES FOR SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT IN THE FOUR SECTIONS OF CHAPULTEPEC FOREST

英语. This study examined the water resources in four sections of Chapultepec Forest (CF) to assess their current state and propose strategies for proper management. The forest is significant for Mexico City due to its historical and cultural value, ecological relevance, and contribution to the quality of life of its residents. For diagnosis, a water balance was carried out under current conditions, and water supply and demand were projected to the year 2050. The results show that there is currently a water deficit in sections 1, 2, and 3, mainly due to the demand for irrigation water. Towards 2050, and considering the trend of climatological variables, an increase in the deficit is expected for the entire CF due to increased evaporation and water demand in its various uses.
