Abstract
After propounding a renewed characterisation, the author gives a census and a cartographical analysis of all impoundments of water in the department of Indre-et-Loire, from artificial lakes to farm ponds, distinguishing between ancient, recent and present creations. The inquest bears on all hydrological, biotic and socio-economic aspects. The impacts of reservoir multiplication are more precisely studied through intensive observation of a small drainage basin. Some consequences are drawn bearing upon water transit, sediment transport, humid ecosystems and associated human activities (fishing, irrigation, leisure).
