The river basins of Bogotá D.C. are environmentaly complex systems which have suffered serious alterations by urbanization, agricultural, livestock and industrial activities. The purpose of this study was to compare the status of two urban river basins in Bogotá D.C. for the Córdoba - Juan Amarillo system, through soil health and quality index, the enzymatic activities (dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, and o-diphenoloxidase) and active carbon fractions. The use of such activities as evaluation parameters for the environmental management program for the system is recommended.

Keywords : wetland; pollution; acid phosphatase; alkaline phosphatase; dehydrogenase; o-diphenoloxidase; active carbon.
