Learn about land subsidence in this new @ASCE_EWRI report. It can occur on local and regional scales worldwide and is often discovered only after damage to buildings and important #infrastructure.

A new @ESA MOOC "Land in Focus" bit.ly/3sZiXXb, was released on Feb 23rd. It is the sixth of the practical courses based on real-life case studies: "Wet Ecosystems" bit.ly/3JEOHYm.It it focuses in how to monitor wetlands and soil moisture using remote sensing tools

Alarmingly high rates of land #subsidence in #Delhi found coinciding with a decrease in groundwater levels.

💧Environ 40 % de l'eau utilisée pour l'irrigation provient des eaux souterraines.
💧Dans les pays où l'eau est rare, la fourniture d'une énergie bon marché pour pomper les eaux souterraines afin d'irriguer les terres agricoles peut entraîner l'épuisement des eaux souterraines.

Thrilled to have this new paper with @Frances_Dunn in Nature's @CommsEarth. We assessed the (in)#feasibility of river sediment to compensate for #subsidence and #sealevelrise in the #Mekongdelta. Open-access so everyone can read it! We hope you like it and find it inspiring!
New open-access paper with @DeltaSubsidence in @CommsEarth showing the possibilities of using river sediment to compensate for subsidence and sea-level rise in the Mekong delta, Vietnam. Read it here: doi.org/10.1038/s43247-021-0…

Coastal Louisiana is sinking fast.
But @NSF-supported research led by @Tulane found that diverting rivers eventually overcomes initial subsidence - & leads to long-term land building. bit.ly/3pPqQgl

Learn about the subject by downloading our most recent release, the book Land Subsidence and its Mitigation: cutt.ly/GWP_LandSubsidence
Share it with your colleagues and friends. Every share makes groundwater more visible!

It is well known that climate-induced sea-level rise is a major threat. What is less well know is the threat of sinking land.
And in many of the most populated coastal areas, the land is sinking even faster than the sea is rising.

Hundreds of large plains in the country are at risk of subsidence due to decreased level of underground water. #Iran #IranProtests
