Abstract
Climate change is continuously challenging water supply worldwide, enhancing the pressure on groundwater resources. The international community is working to address this issue, by developing new solutions for sustainable water management strategies. Among various adaptation measures, Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) represent an effective natural-based solution to enhance groundwater storage and mitigate drought effects. This thesis evaluates the feasibility and hydrological impacts of two MAR infrastructures located in the Province of Cuneo, in the Piedmont Region (Northwestern Italy), within the framework of the European SeTe-Alcotra project. The systems, located in the municipalities of Beinette and Tetti Pesio, were designed to increase the aquifer recharge outside irrigation periods, when water availability is higher, thus improving water supply stability throughout the year.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the volume of water infiltrated through the MAR systems, and to assess their influence on the underlying aquifer, separating it from the effects of natural precipitation
