The current rate of #groundwater storage depletion is of 100-200 km³/yr, accounting for 15-25% of all groundwater withdrawals. To blame are often intensive withdrawals for irrigation or large cities. A map of groundwater depletion hotspots 👇 unesco.org/reports/wwdr/2…

Solar pumps look set to transform #irrigation in Ethiopia – but at what cost to groundwater? ☀️💧 Behavioral games have a positive and long-term impact on farmers’ sustainable management of #groundwater, IFPRI-led research has shown

Outlook for May-July is for Above Normal to Exceptionally High #groundwater & #rivers in SE England. In eastern areas Normal to Above river flows likely & Above Normal groundwater in northern Permo-Triassic sandstones. Elsewhere outlook is less certain. hydoutuk.net/latest-outlook…
