An innovative monitoring system for fecal bacteria in spring water was installed at two alpine springs in the Hochifen-Gottesacker karst area. In karst aquifers the rapid pollution of spring water with fecal bacteria after precipitation events is a common problem. Standard methods for the detection and enumeration of fecal bacteria like E. coli require at least 18 hours, so that the fecal bacteria can already be spread in drinking water supply systems. The aim is therefore to determine parameters that can be used for an Early-Warning-System or at least for real-time indicators of fecal contamination at karst springs. In addition to the standard parameters discharge, electrical conductivity, water temperature, pH and redox, the particle load and particle size-distribution and the natural fluorescence were measured. The particle size-distribution was measured with the Klotz particle counter PCSS fluid lite and the natural fluorescence was measured with an Albillia field fluorometer FL30. E. coli bacteria were determined using a conventional culture-based method (IDEXX ColiSure) and with a novel instrument (ColiMinder) based on enzymatic activity measurements. Manual water samples were taken to determine the chemical composition of the spring water and total organic carbon as well as excitation-emission matrices (EEMs) using a laboratory Aqualog fluorometer. The system was implemented at the springs and proved that it worked as intended. However, the system will be removed until the end of the year 2024, hence the percentage of implementation is estimated to be 80%.

The activity aimed to validate the proposed technology for converting agricultural residues into high-quality biogas, while producing a balanced digestate that can be used as fertilizer. Technical feasibility, robustness and process stability were prioritized over peak productivity data to support further scale-up and replication. The semi-pilot scale operation enabled strengthening of results obtained at bench scale while integrating further knowledge to be considered at larger scales, including relevant additional parameters, contributing to TRL advancement within WP8.

The activities were part of WP8, task 8.3 of the project, which focused on the pilot-scale validation of an integrated nitrogen recovery and valorisation process, coupling direct air stripping of ammonia from anaerobic digestate with aerobic heterotrophic assimilation for the production of microbial protein-rich biomass. The activity aimed to demonstrate the technical feasibility, robustness and controllability of the integrated configuration under representative agri-food conditions, while generating operational data and engineering assumptions to support further scale-up and replication. The pilot validation built upon laboratory-scale results obtained in earlier project phases and on the physicochemical characterisation of the selected reference matrices (liquid digestate and second cheese whey). The semi-pilot installation enabled consolidation of these results into validated operational procedures, mass balances and scale-up-relevant parameters, contributing to TRL advancement within WP8.

Lessons learnt on governance for sustainable management and pollution reduction of Mediterranean coastal aquifers. Social learning in the context of multi-stakeholder platforms for sustainable water management can be defined as a process leading to hybrid forms of knowledge between scientific knowledge (i.e. generated from formal research methods) and local knowledge (Figure 1). Figure 1: Generation of hybrid knowledge through the social learning process in the Living Labs Source: (Nguyen et al., 2014) The design and implementation of social learning spaces favour activities and interactions among multiple stakeholders operating in complex situations, which in turn allow integrated practices to emerge. In this sense, social learning can be understood both as an alternative governance mechanism and as a process of systemic change (Ison et al., 2011). Dialogical tools can be more effective than the linear transfer of knowledge approach in identifying strategies for developing concerted actions. Toderi et al. (2007) illustrate some of the benefits that stem from the use of dialogical tools to enable stakeholders’ self-organization and collective action: i) Increase users’ understanding of the benefits that scientific information may have on their practices. ii) Increase researchers’ reliability and their recognition as authoritative sources of information. iii) Mediate polarized positions between different but interdependent stakeholders. iv) Reach a shared understanding of an issue, which is crucial for designing concerted actions. v) Promote the emergence of dialogical and learning spaces that facilitate negotiation, networking, coordination and social learning. vi) Enhance the awareness of the interconnections and interdependence among different groups of stakeholders. vii) Promote a common vision, a sense of mutual trust and a greater willingness to engage in concerted action towards sustainability. It is therefore important for a research team to know what dialogical tools can be designed in order to stimulate a process of structured dialogue, participatory research and concerted action among stakeholders. The following sections focus on multi-stakeholder partnerships and the living lab format.

The CYCLOLIVE demonstration site is located at the Omar 2 olive oil mill in Tighdouine, Al Haouz Province, Morocco, in a rural agricultural area close to olive oil processing activities. The demonstrator aims to establish an integrated circular economy approach by transforming olive oil production by-products, particularly liquid and solid wastes, into valuable resources for sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture. The demonstrator focuses on the circular management of olive mill wastewater (OMWW), also known as olive mill wastewater or margines, by treating it with solid waste-derived materials and then reusing the treated water in agriculture. More specifically, the project implements a nature-based treatment system consisting of biochar-based constructed wetlands, where biochar is used as a functional filtration and treatment material. This approach promotes the valorization of olive oil processing residues while reducing the environmental impact associated with their disposal. The demonstration site illustrates the core philosophy of CYCLOLIVE: transforming olive oil production waste into valuable resources through circular, innovative and sustainable solutions. By connecting olive mill wastewater treatment, solid waste valorization, treated water reuse and smart irrigation, the demonstrator contributes to reducing environmental pollution, improving water-use efficiency, promoting sustainable olive cultivation and strengthening the resilience of Mediterranean agricultural systems. It also provides a practical example of how research and technological innovation can be translated into real-world applications, connecting universities, industries, farmers and local communities within a circular and sustainable bioeconomy framework. Reported completion: 70%.

The SLECI-elements were connected as branch-lines to DN16 tubes and were buried in the soil at a determined depth close to the roots. The SLECI-system works at a low hydraulic pressure and the amount of water released depends on factors such as soil type and the soil moisture level. When the surrounding soil is dry, the so-called suction effect on the SLECI-elements will increase, and a higher amount of water is delivered. Different types of SLECI-elements were used depending on the water needs of the crop-type.

The Vinalopó - Alacantí exploitation system, in the Júcar hydrographic demarcation, has a large structural water deficit that has led to a strong overexploitation of the aquifers. The proposed solution is the application of alternative resources from desalination, reuse and the Júcar - Vinalopó transfer (with an EU investment of more than €400 million). Governance is a fundamental issue when the appropriate tools are already in place to achieve the environmental objectives of the hydrological planning and the satisfaction of demands.The grouping of users around the Central Board of Users, with 44 integrated irrigation communities, is also essential for proper governance. Watermed 4.0 has provided unprecedented impetus to transfer management tools to end users that facilitate their day-to-day activities and help them to better and more comprehensively manage water resources. This has also served to generate greater trust and thus real water governance. rnance. The Prima Foundation can be proud of this project. We think, with all due respect, that it should be more exposed as an example of usefulness to the end user because it is contributing, in an effective way, to alleviate the overexploitation of aquifers. However, we consider that Watermed 4.0 was a first phase that needs a second phase to bring together water planning and operation and for which we will submit further proposals that may be selected. We thank the Prima Foundation for this opportunity.

The site is poorly investigated, and the KARMA Team tested a variety of standard methods (geochemical, isotopes, lumped reservoir modelling, GIS) and equipped one borehole with continuous monitoring of quality. They also applied deep learning and statistical drought indices to predict hydrodynamic response and vulnerability to drought and overexploitation. Investigations were implemented along with stakeholders and results will be potentially used for a sustainable management of the aquifer and the implementation of a Managed Aquifer Recharge site.

DRASTIC maps - results of groundwater and river analyses. The DRASTIC approach is a useful tool for assessing groundwater vulnerability. The DRASTIC method is used in the establishment of the Decision Support System (DSS). The DRASTIC method was developed by Aller et al. (1987) on behalf of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to assess the pollution vulnerability of groundwater. The method was evaluated on the basis of PSCM (point count models). Geographic Information Systems (GIS) greatly facilitate the creation of the DRASTIC method. In the DRASTIC method, the pollution potential of groundwater is assessed by combining the seven layers obtained for each of the parameters. this method was used to create "groundwater pollution susceptibility" maps for the study areas. Subsequently, maps of groundwater chemistry (separately for each chemical parameter “especially N, P, SO4”) obtained from measurements in the study areas were produced. The precision maps created with DRASTIC, the groundwater chemistry maps and the detailed land use maps of the study areas using statistical methods (principal component analysis, fuzzy logic methods or correlation analysis) are compared with each other. As a result of the comparisons, land use classes (pollutant sources) that pollute the groundwater chemistry are identified and scenarios for reducing this pollution are developed.

WATERMED4.0. Turkey. Konya Closed Basin Case Study. A demo site has been deployed with soil moisture sensors and a meteorological station for continously monitoring in order to designate crops' water requirements and thereby improve water use efficiency. The main focus of this demo site, apart from enhancing water use efficiecny, was to observe the suitability of using reclaimed water for irrigation purposes. Two different types of crops are chosen that are widely grown in Konya Closed Basin: corn (herbaceous) and sugar beet (root plant). The experimental site was split into four sub-plots, two of which were irrigated with RW and the other half was irrigated with GW. Data is recorded on the WATERMED platform to compare the results of the control site with reclaimed water irrigated site. Additionally, the WATERMED platform also drew irrigation plans for both types of crops. The first year of the study identified the irrigation habits of farmers, and the results were compared with the platform results. It was observed that corn was under-irrigated while sugar beet was over-irrigated. In the second year of the study, crops are irrigated according to the platform's irrigation plans
