After meeting the Agrio, the Neuquén river has not natural lakes that could regulate its flow, what results in sharp raises of level during thawing and rainy periods

This line (3rd para, first line) is too vague. It should be removed or clarified. --soUmyaSch 10:10, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure what is it that is not clear. Perhaps I'm 'thinking' it in Spanish. The rivers is born, say in a lake area, then it meets the Agrio and moves further southwest, where there are no more lakes. Lakes are big masses of water that are not very sensible to small changes in volume, so they work as 'softeners' of level movements (a lot of volume produce a small change in level). Since there are not such lakes at the south of the Agrio river, the Neuquén river is sensitive to changes in his flow, for a small volume can produce a big difference in the river water's level, and thus occasional flooding.

Please, tell me what is it that you think is not clear, or fix it yourself if you understood what I mean in this message. Thank you and good wiking, Mariano(t/c) 11:16, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
