Plan for the conservation, recovery and enhancement of springs and sites of hydrogeological interest in Andalusia, 2011
Description
The project has involved a cataloguing and classification of springs and places of hydrogeological interest, and a detailed hydrogeological characterization of numerous sectors associated with a selection of springs and winning areas of Andalusia. The pressures that these sectors suffer in quantity and quality have been identified, and a proposal has been made for the zoning of the associated water bodies, in order to allow their conservation. In addition, it has been proposed the conditioning of numerous springs and / or winning sectors that will allow their control and monitoring as indicators of climate change or human action. This content shows the information considered to be of a public nature.
This project is part of the collaboration carried out between the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain (IGME) and the General Secretariat of Water of the Ministry of the Environment, within the "Technical assistance on groundwater in Andalusia" with the intermediation of the Environment and Water Agency. This Technical Assistance is included in the "Strategy for the Conservation of Aquatic Ecosystems Related to Groundwater Masses".
