“…EC in most measured shallow wells remained high after the drought period, even after the important rains of early 2017, indicating that groundwater quality in the coastal zone did not fully recover (Table 2, supplementary material). This behaviour is in agreement with many other well-studied areas (Custodio, 2002;SASMIE, 2017), which show that salinity takes much longer than groundwater level to change and to recover once the aquifer is salinized.…”

“…EC in most measured shallow wells remained high after the drought period, even after the important rains of early 2017, indicating that groundwater quality in the coastal zone did not fully recover. This behaviour is in agreement with the well-studied Llobregat Delta aquifers, near Barcelona (Custodio, 2002;SASMIE, 2017), which show that salinity takes much longer than groundwater level to change and to recover once the aquifer is salinized.…”

“…Groundwater Users' Associations to protect their water resources are scarce in the Iberian Peninsula, even more in coastal aquifers. However, a successful groundwater users' association was launched in 1975 in the Llobregat delta, Barcelona, to join efforts with the water authority to reduce and control the conspicuous sea water intrusion in the aquifers (Custodio, 2012;Niñerola et al, 2009). This has been a successful enterprise that has converted the coastal aquifer in one of the key pieces of the integrated water resources management in the Barcelona Metropolitan Area.…”
