Tiivistelmä: | The term body of groundwater represents a new administrative tool established by the water framework directive (WFD) in order to manage European groundwaters. In this article, a methodology is proposed to carry out the delineation of bodies of groundwater according to the requirements of the WFD. Based on the proposed methodology is applied in a pilot Mediterranean river basin located in southern Spain. It is suggests that previous knowledge of the hydrogeological conditions is necessary to enable a correct delineation of groundwater bodies. Finally, alternative procedures are proposed for low permeability and small aquifers in order to reduce the number of groundwater bodies identified and simplify their overall management. |
