Frenar la erosión del piedemonte con mantas de ramas / Slow piedemonte erosion with brush matting: Cauce aluvional del Zanjón Frías, piedemonte de Godoy Cruz.

El piedemonte es donde nace la crecida que después baja a la ciudad. Cada verano una tormenta corta se lleva el suelo suelto por las cárcavas nuevas. Acomodar ramas y mantas vegetales sobre la ladera frena el agua, deja el sedimento arriba y da lugar a que vuelva la vegetación. Lugar: Cauce aluvional del Zanjón Frías, piedemonte de Godoy Cruz, Provincia de Mendoza. The piedemonte is where the flood that later reaches the city begins. Every summer a short storm takes the loose soil down the new gullies. Laying brush and vegetal matting across the slope slows the water, keeps the sediment high on the hill and gives vegetation room to come back.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

before/after photos of the gully + metres of matting laid + cross-section measurements + GPS

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Fotografiar la cárcava y medir su ancho y profundidad en tres secciones. / Photograph the gully and measure its width and depth at three cross sections.
2. Juntar ramas secas caídas del lugar, sin cortar vegetación viva. / Gather dead fallen brush from the site, cutting no living vegetation.
3. Acomodar las ramas en fajas transversales a la pendiente, bien apoyadas y solapadas, empezando por la parte alta. / Lay the brush in bands across the slope, well seated and overlapped, starting at the top.
4. Anclar cada faja con piedra del lugar apoyada en superficie, sin remover suelo. / Anchor each band with local stone laid on the surface, moving no soil.
5. Fotografiar cada faja terminada, contar los metros tratados y marcar el punto GPS. / Photograph each finished band, count the metres treated and GPS-pin the site.

What counts as done

• Fotos de la cárcava antes / Before photos of the gully
• Medidas de ancho y profundidad en tres secciones / Width and depth at three cross sections
• Fotos de las fajas terminadas / After photos of the finished bands
• Metros de faja colocados y punto GPS / Metres of matting laid and GPS pin

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
