Own resources

 

The inventory of natural water resources is made up of its quantitative estimation, qualitative description and temporal distribution. It includes the contributions of the rivers and those that feed the natural water, surface and underground storage.

Natural surface water resources

The General Study of the Demarcation 2015-2021, indicates that the natural surface water resources considered are those corresponding to the Segura river at its mouth in Guardamar, and are constituted by the total runoff in natural regime evaluated from the SIMPA Model (Integrated System for Modeling Precipitation-Contribution) developed at the Center for Hydrographic Studies of CEDEX , for the period 1980 / 81-2011 / 12, with an average annual contribution of 740 hm³ / year.

Natural groundwater resources

 

According to the latest available characterization studies, the available groundwater resources are estimated at 540.7 hm³ / year on a year-on-year average value. The sum of the average infiltration of rain, the irrigation returns and the lateral inflows / outflows from other basins minus the environmental reserves have been considered as available resources of the groundwater bodies.

The table below shows the estimated available resources for each of the 63 water bodies considered in the demarcation.
