AB The entry into force of Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of 23October 2000 established a new model for the management and protection of surface water andgroundwater in Europe. In this sense, a thorough knowledge of the basins is an essential step inachieving this European objective. The utility of integrative decision support systems (DSS) fordecision-making in complex systems and multiple objectives allows decision-makers to identifycharacteristics and improve water management in a basin. In this research, hydrological and watermanagement resource models have been combined, with the assistance of the DSS AQUATOOL, withthe aim of deepening the consideration of losses by evaporation of reservoirs for a better design ofthe basin management rules. The case study treated is an Andalusian basin of the Atlantic zone(Spain). At the same time, different management strategies are analysed based on the optimizationof the available resources by means of the conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater.
