	River Ebro basin
		The Ebro Basin is a foreland basin localized in northern Spain, closed by the Pyrenees and basque-cantabric mountains; by the Iberian Range and by the Catalonian Coastal ranges.
		The most important rivers forming the fluvial network are the Ebro river, as the main river in the system and its tributary San Gines river.
		The area is a little part of the Ebro basin, is limited in the north by Sierra Cantabria, sometimes taken as the southern edge of the Pyrenees and by the proper Ebro river.

	The River Ebro
		However, the river's source is often given a few kilometres downstream at Fontibre, As it moves out of the Cordillera it cuts eastwards across the Peninsula, forming the Ebro Depression and effectively separating the Pyrenees from the Sístema Ibérica.
		The north bank of the river is fed first by the rivers of the Cordillera Cantábrica and then by those of the Pyrenees, including the Aragón, Gállego and Cinca-Segre, and to the south generally with a lower discharge, by tributaries from the Sistema Ibérico, including the Oja, Iregua, Jalón and Guadalope.
		Although the Ebro has a significant discharge (for a Spanish river) this flow is irregular during the year with low levels at the end of summer and high levels during the spring melt of the Pyrenees, leading to a danger of flooding along much of its easterly length.

		In the 1950’s, the average annual flow of the Ebro in Tortosa was estimated at 614.64 m³/s (for a period of 24 years), with an irregularity coefficient of 2.92.

		This has reduced the amount of silt flowing down river into the Ebro delta, a vast area ideal for agriculture and a huge nature reserve (one of the main staging posts for birds migrating between northern Africa and western Europe).
		There are already signs of erosion along the coastline and, were the Ebro to lose even more of its flow, specialists say there is a real danger that the delta will disappear.
		In addition, the Ebro flows for much of its length through Aragon, which though now a relatively prosperous region (close to the average for Spain), has gained per capita income as much by massive out-migration to other regions from rural areas as by the result of economic development and investment.

		According to an agreement of 1995, the Ebro Confederation provides water for the wetlands in the Nature Park, situated downstream of the irrigated agricultural area, for free.
		Shoreline erosion prevention measures for the Ebro are undertaken by the Park at different localities where the lack of river sediments and intensive wave action by motor boat movements eroded the shoreline and created flood risks for the hinterland.
		Experts of the Coastal Engineering Laboratory of the Polytechnical University of Catalonia confirmed that sediment loads of river Ebro have decreased by 95% since the installation of the regulatory dams upstream at Mequinenza and Ribarroja.
