Local climate change projections
We design tools to simulate expected changes in future climate and assess how they may affect us through risk and vulnerability analysis.
About the project
Impacts of climate change on wetlands affected by groundwater or IMAGUA is a study funded by the call for research projects for non-profit foundations granted by the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge during the year 2021.
Objectives
IMAGUA aims to:
- Analysis of the most important impacts of climate change on groundwater and associated wetlands, taking into account the climate change models of the sixth IPCC report. A proprietary methodology of statistical regionalization has been used to obtain climate scenarios at a local scale. Likewise, the relationships between meteorological conditions and groundwater behavior have been established, applying them to climate projections to obtain the impact of future climate on groundwater bodies and on the wetlands they affect.
Funded by
Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge through grants to third-sector entities or non-governmental organizations that carry out activities of general interest considered to be of social interest in the field of scientific and technical research and environmental protection under state jurisdiction. This research has been funded by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge but does not express its opinion.
