Resumen
ABSTRACT: The nictemeral variation of abiotic factors in a key factor for tropical organisms. We evalu-
ated some climatic, physical and chemical variables during four surveys of the hydrologic cycle in the Paticos
wetland (8o21’08.2” N, 75o08’45.7” W). Of climatic variables, pluviosity presented the highest variation (C.V. =
1 022 %) followed by air temperature (C.V. = 19.7%). There was a high relation in the coefficients of variation
for these variables (84:1). This relation may be associated with altitude. Throughout the day-night cycle, most
variables presented significant differences; except for pluviosity, air and water temperature (because of their
high variability). Variables most related with nictemeral variation were pluviosity, wind speed and direction, air
temperature and dissolved oxygen. COL0009832
