[ES] En el presente TFM se ha tomado como caso de estudio la problemática existente en la laguna del Mar Menor (España), la cual ha experimentado un detrimento de la calidad de sus aguas debido a la contaminación difusa ...
[EN] The aim of this study was to implement an eco-hydrological distributed model using only remotely sensed information (soil moisture and leaf area index) during the calibration phase. Four soil moisture-based metrics ...
[EN] Agriculture is a major source of diffuse pollution, where nitrogen and sediment pollution of water bodies are its main associated environmental impacts. Best management practices are effective tools for preventing and ...
