Contribution of rainfall vs. water management to Mediterranean wetland hydrology: Development of an interactive simulation tool to foster adaptation to climate variability
Bimonthly monitoring of water levels (37 adjacent marshes, 10 yrs) used to develop a generic hydrological model for Mediterranean marshes fed by surface water. Model validation provided a high predictive accuracy for 12 tested independent marshes. A web interface developed to orient water management, allowing users to visualise impacts on the marsh flora and fauna.
