| Sumario: | This report presents the development and application of a comprehensive groundwater modelling framework for the Besòs aquifer system (Barcelona, Spain), integrating geological, hydrological, and hydrogeological data to simulate groundwater flow and contaminant transport. The study highlights the complex structure of the aquifer system, the impact of urbanization and historical groundwater exploitation, and key challenges such as pollution from multiple sources and saline intrusion. A three- dimensional numerical model was implemented to analyse the temporal evolution of piezometric levels and water quality, demonstrating its capability to reproduce observed trends and support sustainable groundwater management strategies. The results provide valuable insights into the dynamics of urban aquifers and the effectiveness of potential mitigation measures. |
