Located in northwestern Niger, the Tim Mersoï Basin (TMB) is an important mining region in the scale of West Africa. Groundwater is considered the main source of fresh water in the basin, especially for mining activities. It, therefore, appears essential to monitor their responses to these activities. However, no study has been carried out in …
Both natural and anthropogenic factors cause groundwater depletion in India. Groundwater pumping for irrigation remains the primary driver of groundwater depletion, which can further affect food and water security in India under climate change. Both in-situ and satellite-based measurements have issues and uncertainty.

Credit: NASA. An ozone molecule consists of three oxygen atoms (its chemical symbol is O 3 ), and its maximum concentration in the stratosphere is a result of ultraviolet radiation's interactions with oxygen gas (O 2 -- the gas that humans need to breathe). When oxygen gas absorbs ultraviolet radiation, the oxygen atoms split.
Synthesis, knowledge gaps, and open questions. India has witnessed rapid groundwater depletion in the last few decades, which is caused by the both natural and human factors. Climate variability and climate change have affected groundwater recharge and abstraction, causing a rapid loss in groundwater storage.
