Description

The document reports the Deliverable D2.4, which summarizes the current monitoring strategies and networks of case studies countries (Spain, Greece, Portugal, Tunisia and Turkey) and gives insightful recommendations for implementing science-driven management based on in-situ data. Data needed for detailed groundwater assessment and management are listed. Then, a brief description of the groundwater monitoring systems by function and their assessment levels are presented.  Also, the current groundwater monitoring networks of the five case study countries are reviewed. The newly monitored or gathered high-resolution data during InTheMED project from the five case studies were presented. The gained insights from these newly collected data compared to traditional monitoring strategies were discussed. Finally, recommendations towards systematic monitoring and data sharing in the case studies and beyond for the whole MED region are listed.
