“…The setup of the Mascognaz weather station, alongside common atmospheric monitoring sensors, includes the monitoring set for the snowpack analysis. This allows a more in-depth analysis of the hydrogeological balance, as a large water contribution could derive from the melting of the snow mantle [ 35 , 36 ]. Besides, the potential of the proposed Snowpack-Weather Station (SWS) will be shown by describing the hydrometric set-up applied to the case study to close the hydro-meteorological circuit.…”

Groundwater resource assessment and forecasting in mountain areas requires the monitoring of two conditions, local meteorological conditions, and springs’ groundwater parameters. The reliability of the monitoring data and conditions are linked to the technical instrumentation, multiparametric probes, and sensors. This paper presents a set of attractive tools and sensors for springs’ groundwater resource monitoring and assessment in mountain basins. Data from the combination of weather station sensors with spring flow-rate instruments, installed in the alpine Mascognaz basin, can guarantee an entire understanding of how one set of parameters can affect other results, defining consequential cause-and-effect relationships. Since a large part of the Alpine groundwater bodies are exploited for drinking purposes, understanding the evolution of their rechange processes requires making the right economic and instrumental investments aimed at using them according to forecast predictions and sustainable development goals.
