Abstract Impacts on water resources produced by climate change can be exacerbated when occurring in regions already presenting low levels and frequent droughts, subject to imbalances between demands available resources. Within Europe, according existing scenarios, will severely affected Spain. However, the detection of those effects is not simple, because natural variability cycle abstractions flow discharges complicate establishment clear trends. Therefore, there a need improve assessment...
Abstract Simulations of water fluxes at high spatial resolution that consistently cover historical observations, seasonal forecasts, and future climate projections are key to providing services aimed supporting operational strategic planning, developing mitigation adaptation policies. The End-to-end Demonstrator for improved decision-making in the sector Europe (EDgE) is a proof-of-concept project funded by Copernicus Climate Change Service program addresses these requirements combining...
Droughts are current challenges to the economic, social and environmental development of a region, as reflected in European Union (EU) water policies. In addition, impacts droughts can be aggravated by climate change effects, adding pressure already stressed areas EU. This paper presents general overview drought management policies EU Spain. The studies specific case Spain, where have evolved from traditional emergency actions Drought Management Plans (DMPs). Historical main episodes...
Nitrate pollution in aquifers is a global concern. Spain has developed national strategy to recover nitrate polluted aligned with the European Union (EU) policies, specifically through water planning under EU Water Framework Directive. River basin management plans use PATRICAL model results define maximum nitrogen surplus each aquifer for first time. The allows reach good status and provides number of years required. Around 30% currently heavily by nitrates. Model show that 90% these can be...
<p>Se repasa, en el marco del contexto mundial, la evolución de desalación España. Una historia más medio siglo que arrancó donde agua escasea, las Islas Canarias. Lo comenzó siendo una solución puntual para resolver problemas concretos ha ido, al compás los avances tecnológicos, reducción costes y control su impacto, ganando relevancia. Pero hace quince años, ritmo implantación, se aceleró notablemente. En aquel tomaron rápidas decisiones, adoptadas sin amplio consenso requieren este...
The biomonitoring methods implemented by water authorities are mostly developed for perennial rivers, and do not apply to temporary rivers (TRs). We propose a new classification TRs better assess their ecological status. It arises from the LIFE+ TRivers project, which was conducted in Catalan Júcar Mediterranean river basin districts (RBD). European Water Framework Directive (WFD) provided two systems set types (systems A or B Annex II), have been officially used across Europe “national...
En el presente artículo se describe brevemente modelo hidrológico distribuido utilizado en Libro Blanco del Agua España para la evaluación de los recursos hídricos régimen natural. Se tiene intención presentar sucesivos números esta Revista otros instrumentos o procedimientos específicamente desarrollados que estima pueden interés técnico científico. El objetivo este artículo, y posibles artículos posteriores, es describir estos trabajos con un nivel detalle propio una revista especializada,...
Abstract A linear response model based on daily spring discharges has been applied in simulating the of karstic aquifer feeding Arteta Navarra (Spain), which is used for water supply city Pamplona. The derived from eigenvalue solution ground‐water flow partial differential equation, a method that provides continuously time this equation finite‐difference or finite‐element space discretization. modeling approach explains recession curves composed by several decreasing exponentials observed...
Water scarcity will increase in the world coming decades due to climate change, especially areas that currently already have water scarcity, such as Mediterranean area. In these areas, guarantee resources, systems’ sustainability is necessary improve demand management and development of non-conventional treated wastewater reuse or seawater desalination. These resources are highly energy-consuming; so, reducing energy costs a key element developing their use different sectors, including...
The European Water Framework Directive (WFD) mandates to incorporate the participation of stakeholders and general public in development updating river basin management plans. So far, WFD implementation has been mainly focused on perennial rivers without considering temporary properly, neither biomonitoring programs nor participatory processes. This paper aims at adapting processes enhance inclusion ecosystems with poor or no social recognition such as rivers. To do so, we examined previous...
