Resumen

Las cárcavas son formas de relieve desarrolladas por tasas aceleradas de erosión del suelo. Las cárcavas pueden identificar los impactos humanos sobre los procesos geomorfológicos y los sistemas hidrológicos y erosivos. En España, las trincheras pertenecientes a la Guerra Civil (1936-1939) se consideran de interés arqueológico por varias razones. En el Cerro de las Trincheras de Bailén (Jaén, España) se construyó una trinchera durante la Guerra Civil Española y en 2020 se llevó a cabo una excavación arqueológica para restaurar las ruinas, lo que desencadenó el desarrollo de cárcavas y regueros, y un empeoramiento del estado de la cubierta vegetal próxima. Presentamos una aproximación de las posibles variaciones de la cubierta vegetal y su disminución de calidad (mediante el NDVI, índice de vegetación de diferencia normalizada) debido a la presencia de la trinchera actuando como cárcava (1956, 2005-2020) y al aumento de surcos y cárcavas tras la excavación alrededor. Reclamamos firmemente que futuras excavaciones arqueológicas deben incluir un protocolo (cartografía de suelos, estudio de vegetación y el uso de índices de conectividad hidrológica) para reducir la degradación del suelo y evitar el daño a la vegetación y a los ecosistemas asociados que provocan el aumento de las tasas de erosión del suelo.
