Its strategic location as the gateway to Europe and the Mediterranean via Inland Catalonia place it on one of the main national and international road and transport corridors. BY ROAD Lleida stands at a major junction of roadways where the key express links to Europe converge. The AP-2 Northeastern Motorway connects Lleida to Zaragoza and Barcelona in just over an hour, with the A-2 expressway providing an alternative. For travellers arriving via Girona, the recently ex- panded C-25 Transversal Corridor is an excellent option, while the C-12 Ebro Corridor provides a link from Valencia. Rapid access is also available from Huesca along the A-22 expressway linking up with the routes to Fran- ce, Navarre and the Basque Country. Connections with the Pyrenees: Vall d’Aran (N- 230), Seu d’Urgell (C-14 / N-145) and Los Pallars (C-13).

  • University of Lleida (ES) – Summary
    Continuing Education at the University of Lleida (ES) – Summary 1. History The university was created in 1300 by the king Jaume II with the idea to increase Catalonia’s power in the Mediterranean area. Students from other parts of Spain went to Lleida and the commerce and manufacture (paper and books in particular) increased considerably. Lleida became a center of exchange and diffusion of ideas and scientific innovation. Wars with other countries and internal issues put the university in a period of decline. The Spanish reform created a new model of university and in 1717 a new university was formed in Cervera which implied the closing down of the University of Lleida as such. In 1991 the Catalan Parliament approved the opening of the University of Lleida again. Lleida is the most important city in the interior of Catalonia with 120000 inhabitants and about 10000 students. The university has 5 campuses. 2. Continuing Education at the University of Lleida The Statutes of the university establish the improvement of teaching and the contribution to lifelong learning in order to develop social cohesion, equality of opportunities and quality of life. One of the university’s objectives is the development of continuing education programmes under very strict quality parameters. Continuing education is understood as all those courses that have as main objective to upgrade knowledge in any form as well as the development of personal and professional competences. The main characteristic of the continuing education at the university is its thematic diversity, that implies a complementary education in the basic education of Bachelor degree and it has been thought in a global way for those interested to improve their professional and cultural qualifications.

  • (Bossost, Val D'aran, Spain) and Reconstruction of Historical Flood

The Upper Garonne flood series from discharge gauging data (Bossost, Val d’Aran, Spain) and reconstruction of historical floods (Saint-Béat, France) Josep Carles Balasch Solanes (1), Jordi Tuset (2), Gloria Furdada (3), Leonel Porras (3), Xavier Castelltort (1), Mariano Barriendos (4), David Pino (5,6) (1) Department of Environment and Soil Sciences, ETSEA, University of Lleida Lleida, Spain ([email protected]), (2) RIUS Dynamic Fluvial Research Group, University of Lleida, Lleida, Spain , (3) Department of Earth and Ocean Dynamics, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain, (4) Department of History and Archaeology, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain, (5) Department of Physics, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain, (6) Institut d’Estudis Espacials de Catalunya (IEEC-UPC), Barcelona, Spain Traditionally, the Val d’Aran in Spain has been considered the headwaters of the Garonne River, an international river that, after a short journey through Spain, goes into France and heads towards its mouth in the Atlantic Ocean after a journey of more than 647 km. Systematic gauging of the Garonne River are recorded in Bossost near the outlet of the Aran Valley (647 km2 of the basin), but the series cover a relatively short period (from 1965 to the present) and prudence must be exercised when extrapolating the flows corresponding to high return periods. One possibility to reduce the uncertainty when carrying out the frequency analysis is to complement the systematic series with the data of maximum flows from the hydraulic reconstruction of historical floods.
