Adapting to drought and salinisation in the coupled groundwater-surface water system
Supervisors and collaborators:
Duration: 2010-2014
Funding: Knowledge for Climate programme 'Climate proof fresh water supply'
Research questions
- How does the functioning of the hydrological system change in dry summers?
- What causes the spatial and temporal variation in salt load?
- How will climate change affect the hydrological system? What is the future water demand?
- How can we adequately describe this system quantitatively?
