[EN] An inverse problem in engineering is the process of obtaining from a set of observations the causal factors that produce those data. Contrary to forward problems, an inverse problem starts with the results and subsequently calculates the causes. They are widely applied in many engineering fields since they allows obtaining parameters that cannot be directly observed. Additionally, they play a major role in uncertainty, reliability and risk assessment. This paper discusses an uncertainty assessment about the environmental impacts of future scenarios of sustainable groundwater pumping strategies on the quantitative status of an aquifer.Llopis Albert, C.; Palacios Marqués, D.
