| Sumario: | Integration between mountain and plain basins had strong environmental consequences in the last century. This paper analyses morphohydrological evolution of Las Lajas stream (processes-cause-tendency) by using morphological and morphometric indicators for channel and valley obtained from old cartography and present surveys. In early XX century, the stream began in the mountains, was semipermanent, and ended in a depressed area. In 50 ́s decade, it joined Santa Catalina stream, by backward erosion and coalescence of multiple headcuts of ephemeral and discontinuous courses. The stream evolved from semipermanent and endoreic regime with flooding-sedimentation processes to permanent-exoreic regime with transport processes. Headcuts migrations are related to humid periods (1953-1968, 1972-present time) and channelizations. Channel length, valley depth, flooding, and backward headcuts were most sensitive indicators. Control structures control adjustment process by stabilizing the stream and reducing erosion hazard. |
