Water management systems in general and urban drainage systems (UDS) in particular should be designed to ensure not only the provision of public service but also their sustainability and resilience. This paper performed an analysis and assessment to identify the factors, variables and indicators of resilience for sustainable UDS management by using an information management tool for scientific subjects. As a result of this analysis, four water resource resilience factors were identified: i. Flexibility; ii. Resourcefulness; iii. Redundancy; and iv. Robustness. In addition, six UDS resilience variables were identified: i. Recovery capacity; ii. Response capacity; iii. Amplitude; iv. Absorption capacity; v. Resistance capacity; and vi. Response curve. Corresponding indicators were proposed to quantify these variables. The identified elements contribute to the development of integrated frameworks to assess UDS resilience.
La gestión del agua en general y de los sistemas de drenaje urbano (SDU) en particular, debe ser concebida no solo para asegurar la prestación de un servicio público, sino también para garantizar su sostenibilidad y resiliencia. En el presente artículo se presenta un análisis y reflexión que permitió identificar los factores, variables e indicadores de resiliencia para la gestión sostenible de SDU, usando herramientas de gestión de información de temas científicos. Como resultado de este análisis, se identificaron cuatro factores de resiliencia de recursos hídricos: i. Flexibilidad; ii. Recursividad; iii. Redundancia; y iv. Robustez y seis variables de resiliencia de SDU: i. Capacidad de recuperación; ii. Capacidad de respuesta; iii. Amplitud; iv. Capacidad de absorción; v. Capacidad de resistencia; y vi. Curva de respuesta. Para cuantificar estas variables, se proponen sus correspondientes indicadores. Los elementos identificados contribuyen al desarrollo de modelos integrales de evaluación de la resiliencia en SDU.
