DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, the evaluation of water resources is acquirin
 g ever greater importance\nmainly due to the world population growth\, esp
 ecially in areas like the Mediterranean region\nwhere rainfall has shown a
  generally negative trend\, also characterized by shorter and even\nmore i
 ntense events. Furthermore\, the ever-increasing demand for high-quality d
 rinking water\nhighlights the importance of correct monitoring and careful
  management of the resource.\nThe area of the Sibillini Mountains National
  Park\, located in the central Apennines (central\nItaly)\, proves to be p
 articularly suitable for a quantitative study of the water resource due\nt
 o the excellent water quality widely exploited for drinkable uses.\nThis s
 ector of the Apennine ridge is characterized by suspended aquifers\, even 
 of large\ndimensions\, and by a deep basal aquifer hosted within fractured
  and karstied micritic limestones.\nThe monitoring\, in some cases for de
 cades\, of the discharges emerging from some important\nspring systems and
  of some river reaches that drain the waters circulating within the basal\
 naquifer has highlighted a constant and progressive decrease in stored wat
 er resources. This\nphenomenon\, as mentioned\, is certainly linked to the
  rainfall trend recorded in recent decades\nwhich\, especially concerning 
 the time of residence of the snowfalls on the ground\, has shown\na marked
  decrease. However\, the role played by the strong increase in forest cove
 r along\nthe recharge areas within the carbonate ridge over the last 50-60
  years is underestimated.\nThe lower inltration linked to the consumption
  of trees\, especially in the summer season\,\ncombined with the amount of
  precipitation lost through interception or evapotranspiration\nphenomena\
 , has been shown to reach values in places higher than 25-30%.
