Groundwater quality and quantity in the current context of climate change

IDAEA is an environmental science institute in the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) devoted to the study of the human footprint on the biosphere. Much of our research is centred on two of the great environmental challenges of our time: the cleanliness and availability of water and the quality of air, guided by the principle that our scientific understanding of current threats to global ecosystems is best approached from a holistic, systems-based viewpoint.

We have expertise in groundwater quality and quantity issues, hydrogeological modelling at different scales and emerging organic contaminants in groundwater, among others.
