A TRANSDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH APPROACH FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF A DRY, SALINIZED RIVER-BASIN IN MOROCCO
The Draa river catchment in southern Morocco is one of the driest river basins in the world and supports the life of unique biodiversity and the livelihood of approximately 1 million inhabitants. The construction of Mansour Eddahbi dam for water storage has substantially altered flow regime and land-use practices in the catchment. These are now leading to soil and water salinization, which can negatively affect biodiversity and ecosystem services.
The 5-year project SALIDRAAjuj uses a transdisciplinary research approach, where stakeholders work from the beginning with freshwater ecologists and social scientists to find solutions for a sustainable transformation of this socio-ecological system. The project concept that uses the ecosystem service approach as central element to allow for close integration of different sciences as well as research and society, will be presented and difficulties, especially regarding linkages between changes in ecosystem processes and ecosystem service delivery will be discussed.
