Abstract

The Charca de Suárez Nature Reserve is a coastal wetland lo-cated in the south of Spain. The wetland complex is composed of 8 lakes in a lowland area of the Motril-Salobreña aquifer, where the watertable is near to the surface topography. The hydrodynamic of this system was analyzed in 4 of the 8 lagoons based on water table elevation, seepage meter measurements, surficial flow and clima-tic conditions. The results showed differences in the interaction with groundwater for each of the lakes conforming the wetland. Also, seasonal and event related changes can be observed, which indica-tes the necessity of continuous measurements in the wetland.
