Door to Aridity
Murcia/Almería, Spain
This image is part of project
‘Árida’, which documents the
Spanish lands currently at
risk of desertification. 80%
of the state’s territory is prone
to desertification during the
21st century – and most
affected will be the regions
of Murcia, Almeria and their
respective mountain ranges.
Through desertification,
the productivity of the land
and its capability to support
vegetation gradually declines
as a result of human activity
and prolonged periods of
draughts and floods. Climate
change has exacerbated the
effects of desertification in
the Iberian Peninsula. These
effects are only expected to
worsen if their causes are
not properly addressed.
