Hoe lang duurt het voordat een regendruppel het grondwater bereikt? Een belangrijke vraag om te begrijpen waarom herstel van grondwater na droogte lang kan duren.
@bkwdae berekende dat dit in België weken, maanden of zelfs jaren kan duren:

Our new #openaccess research paper about drought propagation in the hydrological cycle in semi-arid climates, #ethiopia. In our paper, we showed how the drought propagates from meteorological to groundwater drought.
Thank you @MarijkeHuysmans, Boud Verbeiren and Ayalew Shura

With periods of drought becoming longer due to #climatechange, surface water can become scarce and #groundwater can play a crucial role in providing #water supply. #WorldWaterDay #WWD2022 #ClimateAction

Groundwater will play a critical role in adapting to climate change, especially drought. We must protect and explore groundwater, balancing the needs of people and the planet. #WorldWaterDay Groundwater: making the invisible visible buff.ly/3FPOnVh
