The water resource is of great environmental and public importance, which lies, among other things, in the conservation and development of landscape values, in the conservation of ecosystems, as open spaces used for recreational and leisure activities, as water sources and drainage arteries. However, these sources are under constant threat as a result of development and construction activities, both in land and sea space, turning them into domestic, industrial and agricultural sewer arteries, as well as climate change and the gradual decline in precipitation.<\/p>\n
