Summary
HydroINS combines well-established and new techniques for monitoring the effect of the upcoming extensive Danish land conversion, where farmland is converted to nature with the aim to protect drinking water interest and increase biodiversity. The method makes it possible to track shifts in the hydrological system as the natural landscape grows and to quantify impacts on the groundwater resource.
