Non-renewable groundwater use and groundwater depletion: a review

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
Abstract Population growth, economic development, and dietary changes have drastically increased the demand for food and water. The resulting expansion of irrigated agriculture into semi-arid areas with limited precipitation and surface water has greatly increased the dependence of irrigated crops on groundwater withdrawal.
