Global Groundwater Recharge

Jul 25, 2023
Global Groundwater Recharge: collection of (mean) groundwater recharge rates estimation in function of hydro-climatic and land/soil predictors in different sites of the Earth. Data, analyzed in the article, are contained as supplement material in a MS Excel file.

Global patterns of groundwater table depth (WTD)

Jul 25, 2023
Shallow groundwater affects terrestrial ecosystems by sustaining river base-flow and root-zone soil water in the absence of rain, but little is known about the global patterns of water table depth and where it provides vital support for land ecosystems. We present global observations o ...
