WATER RESOURCES, ASSOCIATED ECOSYSTEMS, AND CLIMATE AND GLOBAL CHANGE (REACT)


It is a multidisciplinary group whose main target is to study the status, vulnerability and resilience of water resources and associated ecosystems, and the analysis of sustainable management strategies. It includes works on monitoring, modeling and analyzing water resource systems at different scales, with special emphasis on groundwater. Historical periods and possible future scenarios are studied to evaluate adaptation strategies aimed at reducing the possible impacts of climate and/or global change. Multidisciplinary work is carried out integrating existing information into models to improve knowledge of the system and assess management strategies. Participatory processes are incorporated that allow mutual learning and the transfer of results to the interested sectors.
