| Abstract | The intensive exploitation of the “Mancha occidental” aquifer has caused that groundwater discharge in the Tablas de Daimiel area has been decreasing since the 1980’s decade until they completely stopped. This fact has favoured the progressive development of an unsaturated zone which had not existed before and a full inversion in the water flux direction as drainage zones of the aquifer became recharge areas. To assess the impact of this process on groundwater quality, a first approximation to the problem has been made through the quantification of the spatial distribution and concentrations of mobile nutrients stored in the unsaturated zone, which are readily available to be exported to the saturated zone. The results point out the accumulation of these nutrients in the topsoil, mostly in areas with high organic matter content coming from reed decomposition, and in fluvial silts filling anthropic channels and ditches. |
