The Ebro is a typical Mediterranean river characterized by
seasonal low flows and extreme flush effects, with important
agricultural and industrial activity that has caused heavy
contamination problems. This volume deals with
soil-sediment-groundwater related issues in the Ebro river basin
and summarizes the results generated within the European
Union-funded project "AquaTerra." The following topics are
highlighted: Hydrology and sediment transport and their alterations
due to climate change, aquatic and riparian biodiversity in the
Ebro watershed, occurrence and distribution of a wide range of
priority and emerging contaminants, effects of chemical pollution
on biota and integration of climate change scenarios with several
aspects of the Ebro s hydrology and potential impacts of climate
change on pollution.
The primary objective of the book is to lay the foundation for a
better understanding of the behavior of environmental pollutants
and their fluxes with respect to climate and land use changes."
