Abstract
GONZALEZ, Oscar Daniel Rivera. Collapse of the drainage network and urban repercussions in the coastal area of Acapulco, Mexico, derived from tropical storm Manuel, 2013-2020. Estudios Socioterritoriales [online]. 2020, vol.28, pp.62-62. ISSN 1853-4392. http://dx.doi.org/10.37838/unicen/est.28-062.
The reason for carrying out the following research article, starts from the objective of evidencing and criticizing the lack of strategies in urban public management processes carried out by the Municipality of Acapulco, related to urban infrastructure and focused on network saturation drainage after the passage of Hydrometeorological Phenomena, such as what happened after Tropical Storm Manuel, the same that impacted the Acapulco Coastal Zone in 2013. For this, environmental-urban problems were analyzed, which are related to the affectations to the population, particularly with the collapse of the drainage network, a problem that is still present in this coastal area, which is the one that must be resolved immediately, because the population is vulnerable due to the low socioeconomic level, directly affecting their scale of recovery.
