A large part of the world’s population relies on groundwater for its water supply. With the growing demand for freshwater, the challenges associated with it increase as well. These include the need for more effective monitoring for issues such as groundwater recharge, water supply, drought, pollution, and climate change…
Two billion people worldwide rely on groundwater for their water supply, irrigation for agriculture, and more. But a growing global population combined with climate change, pollution, and insufficient groundwater recharge can lead to detrimental effects like droughts, which create costs estimated at the US $ 80 billion per year.
