Decline in Iran's groundwater recharge. [PDF]
Abstract Groundwater recharge feeds aquifers supplying fresh water to a population over 80 million in Iran – a global hotspot for groundwater depletion. Using a rich database comprising abstractions from about one million groundwater wells, springs and qanats, from 2002 to 2017, here we show a significant decline of around -3.8 mm/yr in the ...

Groundwater and baseflow drought responses to synthetic recharge stress tests [PDF]
Groundwater is the main source of freshwater and maintains streamflow during drought. Potential future groundwater and baseflow drought hazards depend on the systems' sensitivity to altered recharge conditions.
