Climate change impact in Riverlink
Flow regulation increase is needed
Less riparian forest (<biodiversity) Giant reed (Arundo donax L.) area have enlarged

Reducing water resources in Segura river basin in last 30 years
LIFE Platform meeting: “Climate change-ecosystem services approach to adaptation and mitigation” May 14, 2014. Norwich
LIFE12 ENV/ES/1140
Adaptation and mitigation Riparian forest reduce risk of floodin (speed)
Guadalentín river, Murcia
Reduction of sediments in the rivers
Arundo donax obstructs the bridges in the floodings

LIFE12 ENV/ES/1140
Challenges Riverlink and climate change
Reduce the cost to recover the riparian forest
Explain the local population the benefits of the riparian forest
High regulation needed have caused the increment of non native species
Fish passes will improve the barbel (Luciobarbus sclateri) communities

LIFE12 ENV/ES/1140
Conclusions Segura river basin is one of the areas more affected in all Europe about the climate change impact, in two aspects:
Reduction in water resources Increment of the flash flooding
Remove barriers will
benefit barbel expansion in the basin
Increment the riparian connectivity with the
riparian forest is decisive in the adaptation to the
climate change.
