However, in urban areas, these springs have been intensely modified by human action. One of the main consequences of urban interventions on the dynamics of springs is changes in water quality. One of the main consequences of urban interventions on the dynamics of springs is changes in water quality. In addition, periods of greater precipitation can interfere with this dynamic. Therefore, th… Show more
