About:
My interests are related to the Integrated Water Resources Management. We must bear in mind the different types of benefits that water resources provide as well as the impacts generated by the multiple actors in terms of the efficiency in their allocation over a given territory. For this reason, the management of sustainability is a key topic whose final objective is the reproduction of the vital cycles of both population and ecosystems My research is currently focused on irrigation systems in mountain basins and their influence on the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals through the modeling and sustainable planning of resources. Here, interdisciplinary participation is essential to fully address the problem and as a result generate a solution according to the specificities of the territories.
