|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=Upon completion of the project, the following results have been listed:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ More than 10,000 fish are using the fish passages. 80% of fishes which try to use the vertical-slot fishway achieves it, 50% does it in less than half an hour.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ First weir removal within the Segura Basin&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Volunteer collaboration and the landstewardship scheme are essential for the achievement of a favorable development of the riparian vegetation. In case of volunteers, thanks to its implication in plantation and refered to landowners for their commitment to properly mantain riversides and to avoid the development of alien species spots as in the case of Arundo Donax.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Results obtained by the removal of Arundo Donax have been diverse, depending on the area and the technique applied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Plantation has been more effective for willows (Salix sp), poplars (Populus sp.), elms (Ulmus minor), mastic trees (Pistacia lentiscus) and rosebay (Nerium oleander). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ A proper implementation of the plantations, a good size of the holes, the location of each plant and the time of plantig are essential for the succes of the works.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ One of the most succesful achievements has been giving visibility to the problem and to the project and the social awareness about it.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project picture=Bosque de ribera.png&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=Despite the Segura River makes its way in many through unique vegetation in many sections of the stream, the riverside or riparian forest (ripisilva) is in serious danger due to the threat of invasive species which are gradually occupying its space. LIFE project &amp;quot;Ripisilvanatura&amp;quot; aims to control the expansion of Invasive Exotic Species existing on the riverbanks of the Segura River and promote the colonization of the riparian forest by native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned before, the main objective is to promote the recovery of the riparian forest, specifically of the habitats of Community interest 92A0 and 92D0 as well as their associated main habitats in the most degraded area of that habitat through the Segura River which is located after the largest reservoir of the entire basin (Cenajo reservoir). It is an area of maximum condition and progressive deterioration of the habitat corresponding to the Vega Alta del Segura in Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza.&lt;br /&gt;
To achieve this goal, the project aims to fight against Invasive Alien Species (IAS) since they have colonized the original niche of such habitat. AIS are the key actors of the substantial problem for the River Segura in the Region of Murcia; the loss of primary habitat is an advantage for opportunistic species of both fauna and flora, entailing an obvious loss of the rich biodiversity that was traditionally linked to the Salicaceae and Populus ripisilva.  Thus the main strategy pursues the recovery and protection of riparian forests from the middle course of the river basin in the stretch including the municipalities of Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza by controlling invasive alien species primarily within the habitats listed as “priority” because the species of fauna that are the subject of this project find their niche in these habitats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilment of the following specific objectives set will enable the success of the project:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a green infrastructure between the two riparian nature reserves of the region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Regeneration and protection of the priority habitats of community interest and the habitats of interest associated with the river.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Protection and conservation of priority and European special protection fauna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Elimination of invasive exotic plant species through hands-off management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Removal of ichthyofauna and exotic birds via citizen engagement and the competent administration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Prevention and eradication of fires along the riverbed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a Land Stewardship Network for the Vega Alta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Provision of ITCs as a very versatile tool for the fight against IAS and biodiversity conservation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Generation of protection measures for the threatened pre-existing ripisilva clumps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Publication of an Integrated Management and Control Strategy on Invasive Alien Species&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=Surveys have been carried out to study biodiversity indicators focused on five components:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
- indigenous riparian habitats and their ecological quality (vegetation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Physicochemical water quality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Aquatic macroinvertebrates and quality index&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Riparian birds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Semi-aquatic vertebrates: Otter (Lutra lutra) and water rat (Arvicola sapidus)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, other faunistic taxa(amphibians and reptiles, bats and molluscs) have been incorporated as a goal of monitoring.&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=The project has contributed to the control and monitoring of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the study area, mainly exotic Galapagos, as well as the replacement of vegetation on riversides of the Segura River from non-native to native. During the project, different trial management techniques have been carried out for the eradication of giant reed (Arundo donax) and exotic Galapagos (Trachemys scripta). The exotic Galapagos and other exotic species specimens captured during the surveys have been transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Center for management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the different actions has been developed through the participation of volunteers involved in the project. They have contributed to the plantations, removal of IAS from the river, installation of bat boxes and riparian birds banding activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The immediate occupation by riparian vegetation returns the river to its natural condition. Among its multiple benefits this status does not promote the spread of fires and gives shelter to numerous native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another achievement of the project has been the raise on awareness among the sectors involved in animals’ sale. Formative talks about the impact that IAS have on rivers have taken place along the project term to put across the message to actual owners and future buyers.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Name of parent multi-site project=LIFE+ RIPISILVANATURA (LIFE13 BIO/ES/1407)&lt;br /&gt;
|Multi-site=No&lt;br /&gt;
|Project picture=Bosque de ribera.png&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=Despite the Segura River makes its way in many through unique vegetation in many sections of the stream, the riverside or riparian forest (ripisilva) is in serious danger due to the threat of invasive species which are gradually occupying its space. LIFE project &amp;quot;Ripisilvanatura&amp;quot; aims to control the expansion of Invasive Exotic Species existing on the riverbanks of the Segura River and promote the colonization of the riparian forest by native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned before, the main objective is to promote the recovery of the riparian forest, specifically of the habitats of Community interest 92A0 and 92D0 as well as their associated main habitats in the most degraded area of that habitat through the Segura River which is located after the largest reservoir of the entire basin (Cenajo reservoir). It is an area of maximum condition and progressive deterioration of the habitat corresponding to the Vega Alta del Segura in Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza.&lt;br /&gt;
To achieve this goal, the project aims to fight against Invasive Alien Species (IAS) since they have colonized the original niche of such habitat. AIS are the key actors of the substantial problem for the River Segura in the Region of Murcia; the loss of primary habitat is an advantage for opportunistic species of both fauna and flora, entailing an obvious loss of the rich biodiversity that was traditionally linked to the Salicaceae and Populus ripisilva.  Thus the main strategy pursues the recovery and protection of riparian forests from the middle course of the river basin in the stretch including the municipalities of Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza by controlling invasive alien species primarily within the habitats listed as “priority” because the species of fauna that are the subject of this project find their niche in these habitats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilment of the following specific objectives set will enable the success of the project:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a green infrastructure between the two riparian nature reserves of the region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Regeneration and protection of the priority habitats of community interest and the habitats of interest associated with the river.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Protection and conservation of priority and European special protection fauna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Elimination of invasive exotic plant species through hands-off management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Removal of ichthyofauna and exotic birds via citizen engagement and the competent administration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Prevention and eradication of fires along the riverbed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a Land Stewardship Network for the Vega Alta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Provision of ITCs as a very versatile tool for the fight against IAS and biodiversity conservation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Generation of protection measures for the threatened pre-existing ripisilva clumps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Publication of an Integrated Management and Control Strategy on Invasive Alien Species&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=Surveys have been carried out to study biodiversity indicators focused on five components:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
- indigenous riparian habitats and their ecological quality (vegetation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Physicochemical water quality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Aquatic macroinvertebrates and quality index&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Riparian birds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Semi-aquatic vertebrates: Otter (Lutra lutra) and water rat (Arvicola sapidus)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, other faunistic taxa(amphibians and reptiles, bats and molluscs) have been incorporated as a goal of monitoring.&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=The project has contributed to the control and monitoring of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the study area, mainly exotic Galapagos, as well as the replacement of vegetation on riversides of the Segura River from non-native to native. During the project, different trial management techniques have been carried out for the eradication of giant reed (Arundo donax) and exotic Galapagos (Trachemys scripta). The exotic Galapagos and other exotic species specimens captured during the surveys have been transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Center for management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the different actions has been developed through the participation of volunteers involved in the project. They have contributed to the plantations, removal of IAS from the river, installation of bat boxes and riparian birds banding activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The immediate occupation by riparian vegetation returns the river to its natural condition. Among its multiple benefits this status does not promote the spread of fires and gives shelter to numerous native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another achievement of the project has been the raise on awareness among the sectors involved in animals’ sale. Formative talks about the impact that IAS have on rivers have taken place along the project term to put across the message to actual owners and future buyers.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project picture=Bosque de ribera.png&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=Despite the Segura River makes its way in many through unique vegetation in many sections of the stream, the riverside or riparian forest (ripisilva) is in serious danger due to the threat of invasive species which are gradually occupying its space. LIFE project &amp;quot;Ripisilvanatura&amp;quot; aims to control the expansion of Invasive Exotic Species existing on the riverbanks of the Segura River and promote the colonization of the riparian forest by native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned before, the main objective is to promote the recovery of the riparian forest, specifically of the habitats of Community interest 92A0 and 92D0 as well as their associated main habitats in the most degraded area of that habitat through the Segura River which is located after the largest reservoir of the entire basin (Cenajo reservoir). It is an area of maximum condition and progressive deterioration of the habitat corresponding to the Vega Alta del Segura in Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza.&lt;br /&gt;
To achieve this goal, the project aims to fight against Invasive Alien Species (IAS) since they have colonized the original niche of such habitat. AIS are the key actors of the substantial problem for the River Segura in the Region of Murcia; the loss of primary habitat is an advantage for opportunistic species of both fauna and flora, entailing an obvious loss of the rich biodiversity that was traditionally linked to the Salicaceae and Populus ripisilva.  Thus the main strategy pursues the recovery and protection of riparian forests from the middle course of the river basin in the stretch including the municipalities of Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza by controlling invasive alien species primarily within the habitats listed as “priority” because the species of fauna that are the subject of this project find their niche in these habitats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilment of the following specific objectives set will enable the success of the project:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a green infrastructure between the two riparian nature reserves of the region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Regeneration and protection of the priority habitats of community interest and the habitats of interest associated with the river.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Protection and conservation of priority and European special protection fauna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Elimination of invasive exotic plant species through hands-off management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Removal of ichthyofauna and exotic birds via citizen engagement and the competent administration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Prevention and eradication of fires along the riverbed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a Land Stewardship Network for the Vega Alta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Provision of ITCs as a very versatile tool for the fight against IAS and biodiversity conservation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Generation of protection measures for the threatened pre-existing ripisilva clumps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Publication of an Integrated Management and Control Strategy on Invasive Alien Species&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=Surveys have been carried out to study biodiversity indicators focused on five components:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
- indigenous riparian habitats and their ecological quality (vegetation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Physicochemical water quality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Aquatic macroinvertebrates and quality index&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Riparian birds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Semi-aquatic vertebrates: Otter (Lutra lutra) and water rat (Arvicola sapidus)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, other faunistic taxa(amphibians and reptiles, bats and molluscs) have been incorporated as a goal of monitoring.&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=The project has contributed to the control and monitoring of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the study area, mainly exotic Galapagos, as well as the replacement of vegetation on riversides of the Segura River from non-native to native. During the project, different trial management techniques have been carried out for the eradication of giant reed (Arundo donax) and exotic Galapagos (Trachemys scripta). The exotic Galapagos and other exotic species specimens captured during the surveys have been transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Center for management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the different actions has been developed through the participation of volunteers involved in the project. They have contributed to the plantations, removal of IAS from the river, installation of bat boxes and riparian birds banding activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The immediate occupation by riparian vegetation returns the river to its natural condition. Among its multiple benefits this status does not promote the spread of fires and gives shelter to numerous native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another achievement of the project has been the raise on awareness among the sectors involved in animals’ sale. Formative talks about the impact that IAS have on rivers have taken place along the project term to put across the message to actual owners and future buyers.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Multi-site=No&lt;br /&gt;
|Project picture=Bosque de ribera.png&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=Despite the Segura River makes its way in many through unique vegetation in many sections of the stream, the riverside or riparian forest (ripisilva) is in serious danger due to the threat of invasive species which are gradually occupying its space. LIFE project &amp;quot;Ripisilvanatura&amp;quot; aims to control the expansion of Invasive Exotic Species existing on the riverbanks of the Segura River and promote the colonization of the riparian forest by native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned before, the main objective is to promote the recovery of the riparian forest, specifically of the habitats of Community interest 92A0 and 92D0 as well as their associated main habitats in the most degraded area of that habitat through the Segura River which is located after the largest reservoir of the entire basin (Cenajo reservoir). It is an area of maximum condition and progressive deterioration of the habitat corresponding to the Vega Alta del Segura in Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza.&lt;br /&gt;
To achieve this goal, the project aims to fight against Invasive Alien Species (IAS) since they have colonized the original niche of such habitat. AIS are the key actors of the substantial problem for the River Segura in the Region of Murcia; the loss of primary habitat is an advantage for opportunistic species of both fauna and flora, entailing an obvious loss of the rich biodiversity that was traditionally linked to the Salicaceae and Populus ripisilva.  Thus the main strategy pursues the recovery and protection of riparian forests from the middle course of the river basin in the stretch including the municipalities of Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza by controlling invasive alien species primarily within the habitats listed as “priority” because the species of fauna that are the subject of this project find their niche in these habitats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilment of the following specific objectives set will enable the success of the project:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a green infrastructure between the two riparian nature reserves of the region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Regeneration and protection of the priority habitats of community interest and the habitats of interest associated with the river.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

|Monitoring surveys and results=Surveys have been carried out to study biodiversity indicators focused on five components:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
- indigenous riparian habitats and their ecological quality (vegetation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Physicochemical water quality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Aquatic macroinvertebrates and quality index&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Riparian birds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Semi-aquatic vertebrates: Otter (Lutra lutra) and water rat (Arvicola sapidus)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, other faunistic taxa(amphibians and reptiles, bats and molluscs) have been incorporated as a goal of monitoring.&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=The project has contributed to the control and monitoring of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the study area, mainly exotic Galapagos, as well as the replacement of vegetation on riversides of the Segura River from non-native to native. During the project, different trial management techniques have been carried out for the eradication of giant reed (Arundo donax) and exotic Galapagos (Trachemys scripta). The exotic Galapagos and other exotic species specimens captured during the surveys have been transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Center for management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the different actions has been developed through the participation of volunteers involved in the project. They have contributed to the plantations, removal of IAS from the river, installation of bat boxes and riparian birds banding activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The immediate occupation by riparian vegetation returns the river to its natural condition. Among its multiple benefits this status does not promote the spread of fires and gives shelter to numerous native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another achievement of the project has been the raise on awareness among the sectors involved in animals’ sale. Formative talks about the impact that IAS have on rivers have taken place along the project term to put across the message to actual owners and future buyers.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Name of parent multi-site project=LIFE+ RIPISILVANATURA (LIFE13 BIO/ES/1407)&lt;br /&gt;
|Multi-site=No&lt;br /&gt;
|Project picture=Bosque de ribera.png&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=Despite the Segura River makes its way in many through unique vegetation in many sections of the stream, the riverside or riparian forest (ripisilva) is in serious danger due to the threat of invasive species which are gradually occupying its space. LIFE project &amp;quot;Ripisilvanatura&amp;quot; aims to control the expansion of Invasive Exotic Species existing on the riverbanks of the Segura River and promote the colonization of the riparian forest by native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned before, the main objective is to promote the recovery of the riparian forest, specifically of the habitats of Community interest 92A0 and 92D0 as well as their associated main habitats in the most degraded area of that habitat through the Segura River which is located after the largest reservoir of the entire basin (Cenajo reservoir). It is an area of maximum condition and progressive deterioration of the habitat corresponding to the Vega Alta del Segura in Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza.&lt;br /&gt;
To achieve this goal, the project aims to fight against Invasive Alien Species (IAS) since they have colonized the original niche of such habitat. AIS are the key actors of the substantial problem for the River Segura in the Region of Murcia; the loss of primary habitat is an advantage for opportunistic species of both fauna and flora, entailing an obvious loss of the rich biodiversity that was traditionally linked to the Salicaceae and Populus ripisilva.  Thus the main strategy pursues the recovery and protection of riparian forests from the middle course of the river basin in the stretch including the municipalities of Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza by controlling invasive alien species primarily within the habitats listed as “priority” because the species of fauna that are the subject of this project find their niche in these habitats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilment of the following specific objectives set will enable the success of the project:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a green infrastructure between the two riparian nature reserves of the region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Regeneration and protection of the priority habitats of community interest and the habitats of interest associated with the river.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Protection and conservation of priority and European special protection fauna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Elimination of invasive exotic plant species through hands-off management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Removal of ichthyofauna and exotic birds via citizen engagement and the competent administration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Prevention and eradication of fires along the riverbed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a Land Stewardship Network for the Vega Alta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Provision of ITCs as a very versatile tool for the fight against IAS and biodiversity conservation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Generation of protection measures for the threatened pre-existing ripisilva clumps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Publication of an Integrated Management and Control Strategy on Invasive Alien Species&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=Surveys have been carried out to study biodiversity indicators focused on five components:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
- indigenous riparian habitats and their ecological quality (vegetation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Physicochemical water quality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Aquatic macroinvertebrates and quality index&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Riparian birds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Semi-aquatic vertebrates: Otter (Lutra lutra) and water rat (Arvicola sapidus)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, other faunistic taxa(amphibians and reptiles, bats and molluscs) have been incorporated as a goal of monitoring.&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=The project has contributed to the control and monitoring of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the study area, mainly exotic Galapagos, as well as the replacement of vegetation on riversides of the Segura River from non-native to native. During the project, different trial management techniques have been carried out for the eradication of giant reed (Arundo donax) and exotic Galapagos (Trachemys scripta). The exotic Galapagos and other exotic species specimens captured during the surveys have been transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Center for management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the different actions has been developed through the participation of volunteers involved in the project. They have contributed to the plantations, removal of IAS from the river, installation of bat boxes and riparian birds banding activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The immediate occupation by riparian vegetation returns the river to its natural condition. Among its multiple benefits this status does not promote the spread of fires and gives shelter to numerous native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another achievement of the project has been the raise on awareness among the sectors involved in animals’ sale. Formative talks about the impact that IAS have on rivers have taken place along the project term to put across the message to actual owners and future buyers.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project picture=Evolucion riverlink.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monitoting actions were focused on :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Operation indicators at fish passage systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Fish community and populations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Bird community and riverbanks associated fauna&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation communities in the restored areas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
+ Ecological status of water bodies and sediment monitoring in each weir&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project is to promote and support the environmental recovery of the Segura River Basin by improving and strengthening the connectivity between natural ecosystems, promoting the conservation of the area and improving its public use by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Increasing the river ecosystems continuity and permeability in order to restore its natural dynamics and the mobility of the species along the Segura and Moratalla rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Combating ecosystem degradation and fragmentation to restore their role as ecological corridors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Improving the ecological status along both rivers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Increasing biodiversity of fluvial and riparian ecosystems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Promoting social awareness&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Disseminating knowledge and transferring the results to the Segura River Basin Management Plan and to other areas with similar environmental problems&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project LIFE + SEGURA RIVERLINK is to improve connectivity between natural ecosystems through a series of actions aimed at restoring the river and recovering its function as a green corridor. This approach will reinforce the implementation of the Water Framework Directive in the Segura Basin and the results obtained will be transferred to the rest of the basin through the Hydrological Plan of the Segura Basin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use of a new concept in land management and planning, the green infrastructure approach, is the solution to reverse landscape fragmentation by connecting natural areas. This improves ecosystems health and resilience, increases biodiversity and benefits&lt;br /&gt;
human populations by improving ecosystem services.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The project improves and strengthens fluvial connectivity by removing an unused weir and building eight fish passages. All these actions are accompanied by the ecological restoration of riverbanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The specific objectives of the project are the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Recover the longitudinal continuity and permeability of the Segura and Benamor rivers in these catchment sections, thereby encouraging the restoration of their natural dynamics and increasing the mobility of the species along both rivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Reverse fragmentation processes by returning the river and its riverbank to its function as ecological corridors and connectivity between protected areas within this location.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase biodiversity through the existence and accessibility to a sufficient number of habitats for the feeding and reproduction of species associated with the river thus improving the resilience of the ecosystem against disturbances of natural or anthropogenic origin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Improve the ecological status of water bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Develop a Land Stewardship Network to involve private owners in the management of the river, increasing ties between the river and the adjacent territories.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase social involvement in the management of the Segura River.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase social awareness of the problems in aquatic and riparian ecosystems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Integrate the green infrastructure approach and the validated tools in the project into the Hydrological Plan of the Segura Basin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The project also has a Volunteer Program and an Environmental Education Campaign to raise public awareness on the importance of preserving our river ecosystems and will promote its active participation.&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators.

|Name of parent multi-site project=LIFE+ RIPISILVANATURA (LIFE13 BIO/ES/1407)&lt;br /&gt;
|Multi-site=No&lt;br /&gt;
|Project picture=Bosque de ribera.png&lt;br /&gt;
|Project summary=Despite the Segura River makes its way in many through unique vegetation in many sections of the stream, the riverside or riparian forest (ripisilva) is in serious danger due to the threat of invasive species which are gradually occupying its space. LIFE project &amp;quot;Ripisilvanatura&amp;quot; aims to control the expansion of Invasive Exotic Species existing on the riverbanks of the Segura River and promote the colonization of the riparian forest by native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned before, the main objective is to promote the recovery of the riparian forest, specifically of the habitats of Community interest 92A0 and 92D0 as well as their associated main habitats in the most degraded area of that habitat through the Segura River which is located after the largest reservoir of the entire basin (Cenajo reservoir). It is an area of maximum condition and progressive deterioration of the habitat corresponding to the Vega Alta del Segura in Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza.&lt;br /&gt;
To achieve this goal, the project aims to fight against Invasive Alien Species (IAS) since they have colonized the original niche of such habitat. AIS are the key actors of the substantial problem for the River Segura in the Region of Murcia; the loss of primary habitat is an advantage for opportunistic species of both fauna and flora, entailing an obvious loss of the rich biodiversity that was traditionally linked to the Salicaceae and Populus ripisilva.  Thus the main strategy pursues the recovery and protection of riparian forests from the middle course of the river basin in the stretch including the municipalities of Moratalla, Calasparra and Cieza by controlling invasive alien species primarily within the habitats listed as “priority” because the species of fauna that are the subject of this project find their niche in these habitats. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilment of the following specific objectives set will enable the success of the project:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a green infrastructure between the two riparian nature reserves of the region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Regeneration and protection of the priority habitats of community interest and the habitats of interest associated with the river.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Protection and conservation of priority and European special protection fauna.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Elimination of invasive exotic plant species through hands-off management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Removal of ichthyofauna and exotic birds via citizen engagement and the competent administration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Prevention and eradication of fires along the riverbed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Creation of a Land Stewardship Network for the Vega Alta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Provision of ITCs as a very versatile tool for the fight against IAS and biodiversity conservation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Generation of protection measures for the threatened pre-existing ripisilva clumps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Publication of an Integrated Management and Control Strategy on Invasive Alien Species&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=Surveys have been carried out to study biodiversity indicators focused on five components:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
- indigenous riparian habitats and their ecological quality (vegetation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Physicochemical water quality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Aquatic macroinvertebrates and quality index&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Riparian birds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Semi-aquatic vertebrates: Otter (Lutra lutra) and water rat (Arvicola sapidus)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, other faunistic taxa(amphibians and reptiles, bats and molluscs) have been incorporated as a goal of monitoring.&lt;br /&gt;
|Lessons learn=The project has contributed to the control and monitoring of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the study area, mainly exotic Galapagos, as well as the replacement of vegetation on riversides of the Segura River from non-native to native. During the project, different trial management techniques have been carried out for the eradication of giant reed (Arundo donax) and exotic Galapagos (Trachemys scripta). The exotic Galapagos and other exotic species specimens captured during the surveys have been transferred to the Wildlife Recovery Center for management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the different actions has been developed through the participation of volunteers involved in the project. They have contributed to the plantations, removal of IAS from the river, installation of bat boxes and riparian birds banding activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The immediate occupation by riparian vegetation returns the river to its natural condition. Among its multiple benefits this status does not promote the spread of fires and gives shelter to numerous native species. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another achievement of the project has been the raise on awareness among the sectors involved in animals’ sale. Formative talks about the impact that IAS have on rivers have taken place along the project term to put across the message to actual owners and future buyers.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project LIFE + SEGURA RIVERLINK is to improve connectivity between natural ecosystems through a series of actions aimed at restoring the river and recovering its function as a green corridor. This approach will reinforce the implementation of the Water Framework Directive in the Segura Basin and the results obtained will be transferred to the rest of the basin through the Hydrological Plan of the Segura Basin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use of a new concept in land management and planning, the green infrastructure approach, is the solution to reverse landscape fragmentation by connecting natural areas. This improves ecosystems health and resilience, increases biodiversity and benefits&lt;br /&gt;
human populations by improving ecosystem services.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The project improves and strengthens fluvial connectivity by removing an unused weir and building eight fish passages. All these actions are accompanied by the ecological restoration of riverbanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The specific objectives of the project are the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Recover the longitudinal continuity and permeability of the Segura and Benamor rivers in these catchment sections, thereby encouraging the restoration of their natural dynamics and increasing the mobility of the species along both rivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Reverse fragmentation processes by returning the river and its riverbank to its function as ecological corridors and connectivity between protected areas within this location.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase biodiversity through the existence and accessibility to a sufficient number of habitats for the feeding and reproduction of species associated with the river thus improving the resilience of the ecosystem against disturbances of natural or anthropogenic origin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Improve the ecological status of water bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Develop a Land Stewardship Network to involve private owners in the management of the river, increasing ties between the river and the adjacent territories.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase social involvement in the management of the Segura River.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase social awareness of the problems in aquatic and riparian ecosystems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Integrate the green infrastructure approach and the validated tools in the project into the Hydrological Plan of the Segura Basin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The project also has a Volunteer Program and an Environmental Education Campaign to raise public awareness on the importance of preserving our river ecosystems and will promote its active participation.&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;

|Project summary=The main objective of the project LIFE + SEGURA RIVERLINK is to improve connectivity between natural ecosystems through a series of actions aimed at restoring the river and recovering its function as a green corridor. This approach will reinforce the implementation of the Water Framework Directive in the Segura Basin and the results obtained will be transferred to the rest of the basin through the Hydrological Plan of the Segura Basin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use of a new concept in land management and planning, the green infrastructure approach, is the solution to reverse landscape fragmentation by connecting natural areas. This improves ecosystems health and resilience, increases biodiversity and benefits&lt;br /&gt;
human populations by improving ecosystem services.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The project improves and strengthens fluvial connectivity by removing an unused weir and building eight fish passages. All these actions are accompanied by the ecological restoration of riverbanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The specific objectives of the project are the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Recover the longitudinal continuity and permeability of the Segura and Benamor rivers in these catchment sections, thereby encouraging the restoration of their natural dynamics and increasing the mobility of the species along both rivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Reverse fragmentation processes by returning the river and its riverbank to its function as ecological corridors and connectivity between protected areas within this location.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase biodiversity through the existence and accessibility to a sufficient number of habitats for the feeding and reproduction of species associated with the river thus improving the resilience of the ecosystem against disturbances of natural or anthropogenic origin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Improve the ecological status of water bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Develop a Land Stewardship Network to involve private owners in the management of the river, increasing ties between the river and the adjacent territories.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase social involvement in the management of the Segura River.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Increase social awareness of the problems in aquatic and riparian ecosystems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•	Integrate the green infrastructure approach and the validated tools in the project into the Hydrological Plan of the Segura Basin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The project also has a Volunteer Program and an Environmental Education Campaign to raise public awareness on the importance of preserving our river ecosystems and will promote its active participation.&lt;br /&gt;
|Monitoring surveys and results=In order to validate these actions and evaluate the results, the project carried out a comprehensive monitoring program including biological, physical-chemical and hydromorphological indicators. This facilitated the subsequent transfer to the rest of the basin and other rivers with similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;
