Management implications inferred from the multivariate analysis of vadose zone chemical variables in Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park (Spain)

A multivariate analysis approach has been developed in order to explain the observed variability in soil chemistry at Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park (TDNP). Either natural or anthropogenic alterations of the amount or distribution of these chemicals may have severe consequences not only on the...

description A multivariate analysis approach has been developed in order to explain the observed variability in soil chemistry at Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park (TDNP). Either natural or anthropogenic alterations of the amount or distribution of these chemicals may have severe consequences not only on the Tablas ecosystem itself, but also downstream the watershed (i.e. eutrophication), given the actual system functioning as recharge area for the Western La Mancha aquifer. The analysis has been carried out over 20 chemical variables measured at different depths in 22 sites along TDNP (n = 111), considering their interaction with 3 environmental factors: soil type, microtopographic variation and position upstream or downstream the central dam.
