Spanish term or phrase: efecto mesa
"Por ejemplo, en las zonas inundables se usarán periodos de retorno estandarizados, como 25, 50, 100 Y 500 años; en la batimetría isobatas de O m (o equivalente al límite seco-mojado); 0,4; 0,8 m (/////'efecto mesa' ///; Figura 66), 1,0; 1,2 m (comienzo del comportamiento asintótico) y 1,5 m; y en las isovelas o isotacas, valores de 0,5; 1 Y 2 m/s (Figuras 66 y 67)."

This is referring to the section of a growth curve that 'plateaus' or levels off. Is this the 'table effect' in English, too?

plateau effect


Explanation:
"Plateau effect" is a term used when describing curves on a graph, for example, that begin by rising sharply and then gradually flatten off to a horizontal line (like bacterial growth curves in the log and stationary phases).
