The water reserve in Spain according to ecological transition ‘today’, is 41,478 cubic hectometers

The water reserve is the set of All water stored in both surface waters (reservoirs and swamps) and groundwater (aquifers and wells).

The reservoir water depends on the rainfall, the storage capacity of each place and the amount extracted for certain uses (supply, agricultural or industrial ones).

The water reserve Spanish is 74% of its total capacity. The reservoirs currently store 41,478 cubic hectometers (Hm³) of water, increasing in the last week in 131 cubic hectometers (0.2% of the current total capacity of reservoirs).

The water reserve According to him MITECO by field is as follows:

  • Eastern Cantabrian is 86.3%
  • Western Cantabrian to 79.2%
  • Miño-Sil at 78.1%
  • Galicia Costa at 75.9%
  • Internal basins of the Basque Country to 95.2%

  • Ebro at 85.1%
  • Internal Basins of Catalonia at 65.7%

Precipitation has been abundant in the Atlantic aspect and have considerably affected the Mediterranean aspect. The maximum has occurred in Lugo with 77.8 mm (77.8 l / m2 )

The situation of the basins, in cubic hectometers, is detailed in the attached table:
