Unconfined aquifer vulnerability related to topical pollution – Montes Torozos (Spain)

Abstract

In this paper it is shown the vulnerability model fitted to the unconfined aquifer of Montes Torozos (Spain). The most dangerous elements were taken under consideration (e.g. Hydrocarbons, explosives, radioactive materials). The identification of their source location and the transportation of dangerous goods across them has been the starting point of this study. The simulations took into consideration the connection between the capital of the province (Valladolid) to Villanubla airport and between Valladolid to the electrical transformer substation, located in the south-west edge of the hydrogeological unit of the Montes Torozos.
