RT Journal Article T1 Análisis de la estructura del talik de un lago profundo en la Isla Vega, Península Antártica T1 Analysis of the talik structure in a deep lake on Vega Island, Antarctic Peninsula A1 Silva Busso, Adrian A1 Moreno, Luis A1 Durán Valsero, Juan José A1 Ermolin, Eugeni A1 López Martínez, Jerónimo A1 Cuchí Oterino, José Antonio A1 Martínez Navarrete, Carlos AB The current glacial retreat in the northern Antarctic Peninsula region is activating the hydrologicalsystem. The study of the dynamics of such system is important considering the impact of water and matterflows on ecosystems. In the case of lakes it is important to know their connection to the surface andunderground flow. Analytical models, as the proposed by Redozubov (1966), predict for large lakes thepresence of taliks with a direct connection to the aquifers below the permafrost, estimating positivetemperatures (1.49ºC) in the talik coldest part. However, hydrochemical analysis (SO42-/Cl- relationships)of one of the deepest lakes in the studied region - Esmeralda Lake in Cape Lamb, Vega Island - and of thegroundwater around it seems indicate that doesn’t exist such connection. This has been confirmedconsidering the temperatures of the water and sediments of the lake, recommending that the predictionsof such analytical model must be checked in the field PB Universidad de Huelva YR 2010 FD 2010 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/7456 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/7456 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 30 may 2026
