Dr. Sergio Contreras is gespecialiseerd in het ecohydrologisch functioneren van inheemse en agro-ecosystemen van aride en semi-aride gebieden en de relatie met menselijke activiteiten. Tijdens zijn carrière heeft Dr. Contreras een speciale interesse getoond in de interacties en terugkoppelingen tussen vegetatie en grondwater, in de energie- en waterbalans en in de biomassa en landbouwproductiviteit van deze gebieden. Zijn studies bestrijken een breed scala aan ruimtelijke schalen, van perceel tot regionaal, en methodologische benaderingen (GIS en remote sensing, hydrologische modellering, hydrochemische en isotopische technieken).

Hij was pre- en postdoctoraal onderzoeker bij de Spaanse Nationale Onderzoeksraad (CSIC) waar hij een groot deel van zijn wetenschappelijke carrière ontwikkelde, en deed onderzoeksverblijven in Australië, Argentinië en de VS. Hij heeft deelgenomen aan verschillende internationale en nationale onderzoeksprojecten en -contracten en is momenteel lid van de International Association of Hydrogeologists en de American Geoscience Union. Sergio werkt in het FutureWater kantoor in Cartagena, Spanje.
