DESCRIPTION:The SentinelSpringS project aims to establish cost-effective\, 
 inclusive\, and sustainable monitoring and modelling solutions to preserve
  the crucial role of springs in supporting vulnerable ecosystems that depe
 nd on groundwater. Key research questions include addressing the lack of l
 ong-term and real-time monitoring data through standardised data collectio
 n protocols and characterising the sustainability of spring-dependent ecos
 ystems. Here we introduce efforts toward a new European onshore and offsho
 re spring information platform and map viewer enabling open access to real
 -time monitoring data on spring quantity and quality potentially including
  geogenic elements and relevant pollutants such as nitrate and pesticides.
  The information platform can encompass data on the impacts of emerging co
 ntaminants\, water over-abstraction\, land use change and invasive species
  on spring water chemistry and the characteristics of biological communiti
 es. Additionally\, it contributes to assessing the influence of climate ch
 ange on spring discharge and nutrient loadings\, highlighting critical kno
 wledge gaps in understanding climate-related vulnerabilities in spring-dep
 endent aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. The spring information platform
  will enhance our understanding of the hydro-ecological functioning of spr
 ings and aquatic ecosystems and their vulnerability to temperature changes
  and the broader impacts of climate change.
