Wetlands play a key role in preserving biodiversity and preventing climate change. Their conservation poses an important and pressing challenge. In the Mediterranean region, one of the key threats to wetland survival is the lack of water due to competition for resources. The selection of the most sustainable water resources for wetland conservation is a complex elicitation problem. A novel Water Resources Sustainability Model (WRSM) focused on water quality has been developed to support the decision-making. This collaborative elicitation model is based on the analytical hierarchy process and uses the reference environmental status of the wetland. The model can be used to discriminate which water resources are more sustainable for the conservation of the wetland. The WRSM has been applied successfully to Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park. The framework enables establishing priorities when analyzing in terms of water quality any surface, recycled or underground water resources.

湿地在保护生物多样性和防止气候变化方面发挥着关键作用。他们的保护提出了重要而紧迫的挑战。在地中海地区，对湿地生存的主要威胁之一是由于争夺资源而缺水。为湿地保护选择最可持续的水资源是一个复杂的难题。为了支持决策，已经开发了针对水质的新型水资源可持续性模型（WRSM）。该协作启发模型基于层次分析法，并使用了湿地的参考环境状况。该模型可用于区分哪种水资源对于保护湿地更可持续。WRSM已成功应用于Las Tablas de Daimiel国家公园。
