This document was designed as a tool for assessing and guiding water management in Spain. Although Spain’s future water policy is outlined in the conclusions, the points mentioned refer only to quantitative aspects of water resources without considering the issue of quality. Nonetheless, the issue of river, reservoir, lake and groundwater pollution is taken into account in the assessment section. Amongst the problems related to water quality, the White Paper notes, among others, problems related with Directives 91/271/EEC and 91/676/EEC. A brief summary of the main issues addressed is provided below. Surface water and diffuse pollution. In general, diffuse pollution produced by agricultural and livestock raising activities (e.g.

Quantifying suspended sediment loads from lands to watercourses is essential in controlling soil erosion and in implementing appropriate mitigation practices to reduce stream sediment and associated pollutant loads, and hence improve surface water quality downstream.The main objective of this study is to evaluate the temporal variability of hydrology, sediment and nickel loads using Soil and Water Assessment Tool in Oka watershed located in north Spain. Model simulation was completed using 11 years historical records (2001–2009 for validation and 2009–2012 for calibration) of streamflow and suspended sediment con- centration (SSC).

  • Wind Farms and Mires in the Basque Country and North-West Navarra, Spain
    Wind farms and mires in the Basque Country and north-west Navarra, Spain P. Heras and M. Infante Álava Museum of Natural Sciences, Vitoria, Spain _______________________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY Mires occur in the Basque Country and north-west Navarra (northern Spain) due to the Atlantic influence on climate. They are most frequent in the north and become rarer to the south. True peatland is found at only six locations, but there are also some para-peaty habitats associated with springs and flushes which have very thin discontinuous peat layers. Although small, this mire territory straddles the boundary between two separate autonomous communities where different regulations and management guidelines apply. Both communities have developed extensive plans to exploit wind energy, and the summit ridges of many of the mountain ranges now carry long strings of turbines. Consequences for the Basque and Navarran mire ecosystems are reviewed. Because little is known about these habitats, they went largely unnoticed during the process of wind farm planning and were thus exposed to enormous risk. Nonetheless, the impacts of development so far have been limited by careful practice combined with the fact that the locations of most of the mires do not coincide exactly with the favoured locations for wind turbines. The only blanket bog is situated in the Zalama area, where plans to build a wind farm have been abandoned for a combination of reasons. Paradoxically, the wind farm planning process was instrumental in raising social and political awareness of this important peatland, leading to a very promising level of interest in its conservation and restoration amongst local institutions.

  • Biodiversity Basque Country
    BIODIVERSITY BASQUE COUNTRY "ASIATIC WASP 1A" The asiatic wasp it is a problem for biodiversity because they kill bees. You will think that if the bees are killed nothing happens, but it isn't like this. If the bees don't pick up the pollen,they wouldn’t have babies, which leads to the decline of the population, being able to manage to eliminate the hive. If we keep in mind that the bees pollinate the 80% of the plants, the dangers that this new specie could cause, the consequences would be terrible,affecting to all biodiversity. Here in Durangaldea, the local specie is disappearing and the production of honey is decreasing, due to the fact that the invasion of this specie. In a long period of time could affect terribly. Moreover,if the plants are not pollinated, plants could not be reproduced. This would affect to the food chain of some other species. Nowadays, experts say that the eradication of this specie is practically impossible because it is very expensive and there is not a specific treatment to eliminate this specie respecting the other ones. “ASIAN WASP 3D” The Asian wasp is an invasive species characterized by his black thorax and abdomen with some yellow segments and brown legs. It's easy to difference it because of his measure of 3'5cm. It came from Eastern Asia to Europe through the port of Burdeaux (France) in 2004. It quickly spread and, in 2010, it arrived to Gipuzkoa. In these 6 years it has been constantly expanding around the Basque Country.

And what is even more important to me, they help me going through this year abroad, making me feeling like home. Celia and Ewa: home, sweet home. Finally I would like to give my deepest thanks to my family and especially to my boyfriend Joseba.
