| Abstract | Ecological status of the Oja River (Ebro Basin, La Rioja, Spain) based on macroinvertebrate indexes This work provides results about the water quality of the Oja or Glera River (Oja-Tirbasin) during the years 2003-2007, as well as information from the historical data taken from previous basin reports (2004 report, that includes data from 1994 to 2004 and 2007 report). Seven sampling points have been selected, distributed between the three typologies dened in the Oja River: in ecotype 11, Siliceous Mediterranean mountain river, 3 points; in ecotype 26, Humid calcareous mountain river ,1 point and in ecotype 12, Mediterranean calcareous mountain rivers, 3 points. Several macro invertebrate indexes (IBMWP, IASPT, NFAM, NFPLE and EPT) and their ecological quality ratios (EQR) were calculated for each point. As a whole, 75.86 % of the IBMWP measurements show Very good or Good quality, with a 13.79 % of Moderate quality, meanwhile 10.35 % of them appear as Decient . Regarding its historic evolution, in those stretches of the river which present permanent water a progressive improvement of water quality was observed from therst available data (years 1994-95) until the most recent ones (2007), according to the most recent values of water quality classication for IBMWP (BOE, 2008). |
