The main objective of this research project is to co-develop digital twins for predicting water quantity and quality in the Ter and Tordera basins, including catchments, reservoirs and coastal areas, contributing to efficient water resource management, protecting ecosystems and maximising water security in a climate change context.
It focuses on detailed taxonomic analysis and trophic-functional assessment of soft-bottom macrobenthos in various regions worldwide, with the aim of providing rigorous scientific advice to support the completion of environmental monitoring and impact management studies for projects.
The project aims to design nature-based wastewater treatment solutions specifically adapted to high-mountain conditions.
The project provides tools to guide the management and restoration of P. oceanica, a key species that stabilises sediments, sequesters CO₂ and provides habitat for numerous species, but which is currently declining due to human impacts.
This project is being developed within the framework of an ICOOP grant (a CSIC Scientific Cooperation Program for Development), which aims to stimulate collaboration between CSIC research groups and international research groups in countries receiving Official Development Assistance through training, work, and specialization stays for research groups from participating entities.
