Sustainable drinking water production from low quality ground water enabling flexible ground water management (SUSDRIGROW)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2003, Date de fin: 30 juin 2006,
Background
Around 15 percent of the water used for domestic, industrial and agricultural consumption in Europe comes from ground water resources. However, this can result in the desiccation of elevated areas where there are sand-rich soils. Areas which are prone to desiccation can be found in the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, Belgium, France, ...
