Resumen
En este trabajo se describe el comportamiento de la onda térmica de los sedimentos de la playa del estuario del arroyo Claromecó, como así también el balance energético del mencionado ecosistema. Las mediciones fueron realizadas en forma continua y simultánea durante siete días de marzo de 1999 con condiciones meteorológicas de buen tiempo. Se analizaron datos de temperatura obtenidos a través de termistores localizados en la arena, a diferentes niveles de profundidad, 0.05, 0,15 y 0,30 m; en el agua a 0,40 m de profundidad y en el aire a 1,9 m sobre la superficie. Las temperaturas observadas en el sedimento fueron empleadas para calcular el coeficiente de difusividad térmica que resultó con un valor de 0.60 x 10 –6 m-2 s-1 para los niveles superiores. La radiación neta resultó la componente más importante con un valor promedio de 345 W m-2, le sigue en importancia el flujo de calor latente con un valor promedio de 212 W m-2,y el flujo del suelo con un valor promedio de 83 W m-2. Los componentes del balance de energía de las playas del estuario de Claromecó muestran una importante transferencia energética desde la atmósfera hacia los sedimentos.
The thermal variation of the sediments and the energy balance components are computed for a sandy beach in the Claromeco estuary located in the south – east of the Buenos Aires province Argentina. The study covers a seven days period in March 1999. Soil, air and water temperatures were measured continuously employing thermistors at different heights and depth. An air sensor was installed in a shady, ventiled location 1.9 m above the sand. Soil temperature sensors were buried at three levels below the sediment surface at a depth of 0.05m, 0.15m and 0.30m. The water sensor was located 0.40m depth in the water column. The measurement time interval was 10 minutes. Meteorological observation were also obtained from a meteorological station located in the study area. The calculated mean value of thermal diffusivity was 0.60 x 10 -6 m 2 , the thermal conductivity was 1.83 W m -1 K -1 . The ground heat flux averaged is 83 W m -2 . The latent heat flux is 212 W m -2 . The mean net radiation with 345 W m -2 .The net radiation and the latent heat flux resulted the more important components of the balance. The components of the energy balance of the Claromeco estuary show a greater energic transference from the atmosphere to the sediments.
