How sustainable is the increase in the water footprint of the Spanish agricultural sector? A provincial analysis between 1955 and 2005-2010 2015 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted In the context of a relatively scarce water country, the article analyzes the changes in 50 years in the water footprint (WF) in Spain evaluating its sustainability. For that purpose, firstly we make use of the regional information of the water footprints and crop production to estimate the WF of production over the 50 provinces in Spain, looking at the variation between the years 1955 and 2005–2010. The detail in the information of crops (more than 150 of them) statistics allows us to examine the types and origin of changes (in volume produced, shifts towards more or less water intensive crops). Secondly, we estimate sustainability indicators also at the provincial level, which let us evaluate whether this change has created or incremented the risk of physical and economic water stress. Thirdly, we introduce the economic perspective, providing evidence on the infrastructures built and public sector expenditure, as an approximation to the costs of the increases in WF, particularly meaningful for those water stressed areas. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/ECO2012-3328 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/ECO2013-41353-P info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 1.343 2015 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES 146 / 225 = 0.649 2015 Q3 T2 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 5 / 6 = 0.833 2015 Q4 T3 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES 62 / 104 = 0.596 2015 Q3 T2 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 23 / 30 = 0.767 2015 Q4 T3 0.482 2015 Geography, Planning and Development 2015 Q2 Renewable Energy, Sustainability and the Environment 2015 Q2 Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law 2015 Q2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion (orcid)0000-0003-3113-1698 Duarte, R.
