Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The Scheldt watershed is a transboundary hydrosystem which extends on three countries (France, Belgium and the Netherlands). It is characterized by a very strong urbanization and a very strong hydrological artificialisation both in surface and underground dynamic flows. These human impacts are already very present in the upstream basin (in France) as well as their downstream consequences in Belgium and in the Netherlands. In France, one of the main issues relates to the relative variations of water (surface and underground) and ground levels including their consequences in quantity (i.e. floods and low water periods), in quality (i.e. pollution of surface and ground waters) and their socio-economic impacts. This paper expose and analyze the upstream case study in the perspective of the hydrological link at basin scale. |
