Segura Basin & Mar Menor Watershed, Spain - Integrated Ecological-Economic application

Using the EcoLandMod framework, we are collaborating with researchers from the Universidad de Alcala, Universidad de Murcia, and others, to integrate social drivers (of land use change & irrigation practices) into the modeling framework. Our goals are to develop an application to evaluate the ecological sustainability associated with varying scenarios of changes in water and land use, principally in the watershed of the Mar Menor Lagoon, which is in within the Segura region of southeast Spain.

Initial (ca. 2010) efforts involved landscape analyses of land use changes in the broader Segura basin, which was part of a much larger effort described in Biodiversity in Spain, for which we contributed analyses of habitat fragmentation (in that Chapter 3) that had occurred in recent years, associated with changing land use from 1987 through 2006.

The focus has become that of the eutrophication....
