Abstract:
The BINGO Project is a Horizon 2020 project, with the goal of evaluating climate change and its impacts on the water cycle in the short range (2015 to 2024). Such evaluation is the basis for risk analysis and this analysis supports the creation of an actionable adaptation actions’ portfolio, able to be replicated in other areas beyond those of the 6 case studies belonging to this project. The whole hydrological cycle was analysed for climate change impacts and, in the Portuguese case study issues as floods, surface waters, reservoirs, estuarine water bodies and groundwater were analysed. This report presents the development of a mathematical model to assess the impacts of climate change on Lower Tagus aquifers and the ensuing results.
