We are the Centro de Investigaciones sobre Desertificación, part of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas. Our mission is to conduct cutting-edge research on desertification processes and their impact on various ecosystems. We collaborate with multiple stakeholders, including policymakers, to develop sustainable solutions to mitigate land degradation. Through our work, we aim to raise awareness and promote strategies that protect and restore affected environments.
The research group specializes in advanced hydrogeology, water resource management under climate change scenarios, and the quantification of ecosystem services.
