Guadiana River Estuary. Investigating the past, present and future
, 2017 Estuaries are some of the most dynamic and complex environments in the world. The places where rivers meet the sea are subject to cycles of constant change – from the waves and currents that move particles of sand and mud every second, to the daily ebb and flow of the tides and the more dramatic effects of periodic floods, droughts and storms.

Mud entrapment evolution on the inner shelf off the Guadiana River
, 2018 Simposio sobre el Margen Ibérico Atlántico (9º. 2018. Coimbra, Portugal) The evolution of a mud entrapment confined to the paleo-Guadiana incised valley was investigated and interpreted in terms of environmental changes. High-resolution seismic data and a gravity core were analyzed. Two distinct intervals were identified. The lower part of the sediment

Water footprint analysis (hydrologic and economic) of the Guadiana river basin
, 2009 In most arid and semiarid countries, water resources management is an issue as important as controversial. Today most water resources experts admit that water conflicts are often not caused by physical water scarcity but poor water management or governance. The virtual-water concept, defined as the volume of water used in the production of a commodity,
