MARTINEZ VALDES, Yaset y VILLALEJO GARCIA, Víctor Michel. Environmental flows: ecohydrological tool for integrated management of water resources. riha [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.1, pp. 56-70. Epub 01-Abr-2020. ISSN 1680-0338.
This paper discusses interdisciplinary application of environmental flows as an ecohydrological tool for the integrated management of water resources, identifying the main challenges and opportunities for their implementation. The different international regulations clearly express the interest of planning, managing and controlling water resources from an environmental and ecosystem dimension, establishing that the basic management unit should be the watershed. The contribution from different disciplines, including ecohydrology as a new interdiscipline, has contributed to achieve a comprehensive approach on the concept of environmental flows, necessary to work the various hydrological, ecological, social, political and economic aspects involved in the operation of aquatic ecosystems, their sustainable use and their management from an integrated vision of water resources.
