Resumen
Las inundaciones como fenómenos naturales se presentan anualmente en cada verano y extraordinariamente cada cierto tiempo en Huancané, afectando enormes áreas de planicies contiguas al lago. Son el resultado de la transgresión lacustre y desbordamientos de los ríos Ramis y Huancané; y causan cuantiosas pérdidas patrimoniales de los campesinos: cultivos, ganado, viviendas, etcétera. Como es de esperarse, esto pone en acción el apoyo de instituciones privadas y públicas para asegurar la sobrevivencia de la población damnificada.Las dos inundaciones más graves fueron en 1984-1986 y 2003 que interrumpieron las carreteras de conexión a la ciudad de Huancané. Los esfuerzos del gobierno incidieron en respuestas momentáneas, sin comprender que la verdadera causa de estos fenómenos se encuentra en la colmatación de los lechos fluviales y del fondo del lago Titicaca, en la desembocadura del río Ramis que recibe las aguas pluviales desde las cordilleras de la parte N y NO del altiplano peruano.
Floods are a natural phenomenona that normally occur during Summer of every year and sometimes extraordinarily at any time in Huancané, damaging enormous areas near the lake due to lake transgressions and the overflowing of de Ramis and Huancané rivers. This origins uncountable losses to peasants’ patrimony, such as cultigens, cattle, housing, etcétera. As it is expected, this brings the assistance of both public and private institutions, to assure the surviving of the people damnified.The most serious floods took place in 1986 and 2003 that interrupted all means of comunication to the city of Huancané. As usual, the government attention to these terrible problems, consisted in short time actions to cap the moment, without any understanding of the real causes of these phenomenona, which are the filled beds of the fluvial beds and the shallowness of Lake Titicaca in the outflet of the Ramis river that collects the water from the chain of mountains at the N and NW of the Peruvian Altiplano.
