Evaluation of the measures to reduce sediments and nitrogen inputs to the Mar Menor coastal lagoon (Spain)

In the past few decades, the Mar Menor lagoon has experienced an environmental deterioration, caused mainly by intensive agriculture and past open-pit mining activities. This leads to elevated nitrate concentrations in the superficial aquifer, which is connected to the lagoon, and high soil erosion rates. For this reason, the present study aims to estimate the actual inputs of nitrogen and sediments to the lagoon as well as to propose and evaluate pollution reduction measures.
