Climate change is likely to have an impact on runoff and fluvial sediments in watersheds. These factors are among those used characterize water bodies relation the European Water Framework Directive (WFD). Hence, it important investigate extent which climate may hinder achievement of objectives WFD. We explored potential sediment yield for Aixola watershed using Soil Assessment Tool (SWAT). The model calibration (2007–2010) validation (2005–2006) results were rated as satisfactory....
An excessive use of nitrogen in agricultural regions leads to nitrate pollution surface and groundwater systems. The Alegria River watershed (Basque Country, northern Spain) is an area dominated by a Quaternary shallow aquifer that has suffered nitrate-related problems since the 1990s. Our objective was SWAT hydrological water quality model for long-term backward simulation (1990–2011) considering main changes management practices determine their impact on quality. Hydrology, crop yield,...
The study area (Alegria watershed, Basque Country, Northern Spain) considered here is influenced by an important alluvial aquifer that plays a significant role in nitrate pollution from agricultural land use and management practices. Nitrates are transported primarily the soil to river through aquifer. activity covers 75% of watershed located nitrate-vulnerable zone. main objective was find options for water abatement using model systems. In first step, SWAT applied simulate discharge load...
The temporal variability of suspended sediment, nitrates (NO3) and dissolved (DOC) particulate organic carbon concentrations was analysed in the Alegria agricultural watershed over a 2-year period. Nine storm events were studied, including an exhaustive analysis hydrometeorological conditions, quantification fluxes, concentration-discharge hysteresis loop characterization. overall aim to study these components during determine mechanisms (flow paths) affecting trajectories, from source...
The conservation of constructions, and especially built heritage, requires complex studies concerning their Global Vulnerability. These have to consider the current state building, i.e. degradation degree, factors that mostly affect building and, therefore, generate alterations. are not limited structure location environmental also involved. Hence, assessment heritage vulnerability should itself be extended site environment. This work presents a systematic reproducible methodology for...
This paper examines the beliefs and environmental attitudes of university individuals towards bottled tap water use availability sales volumes at University Basque Country. The research employed a mixed methods approach including (i) an exploratory survey to document behaviors water; (ii) written questionnaires addressed faculty administrators inquire about accessibility and, (iii) personal interviews with restaurant managers water. Respondents our predominately drink no health or taste...
