The importance of riparian buffers in the integrity of the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems that surround a river is critical, then determining their ecological and environmental quality is becoming increasingly important. The riparian forest quality (QBR) index was studied in order to use it in the basin of an inter-andean tropical river. Since the QBR was developed to assess the riparian forest quality of Mediterranean rivers, it was necessary to adapt it for this application. Fifty sections in each riverside were evaluated along 20 km of the lower basin of the La Miel River, Caldas, Colombia. It was found that 86% of the study area had a non-optimal quality, where the land cover is mainly grass. Only 14% of the area had natural forest ...
