|a Removal of water from terrestrial subsurface storage is a
natural consequence of groundwater withdrawals, but global
depletion is not well characterized. Cumulative groundwater
depletion represents a transfer of mass from land to the oceans
that contributes to sea‐level rise. Depletion is directly calculated
using calibrated groundwater models, analytical approaches,
or volumetric budget analyses for multiple aquifer systems.
Estimated global groundwater depletion during 1900–2008
totals ∼4,500 km3, equivalent to a sea‐level rise of 12.6 mm
(>6% of the total). Furthermore, the rate of groundwater
depletion has increased markedly since about 1950, with
maximum rates occurring during the most recent period
(2000–2008), when it averaged ∼145 km3/yr (equivalent to
0.40 mm/yr of sea‐level rise, or 13% of the reported rate of
3.1 mm/yr during this recent period). |
