Groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) are at risk globally due to unsustainable levels
of groundwater extraction, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. In this review, we …

Groundwater is the most ubiquitous source of liquid freshwater globally, yet its role in
supporting diverse ecosystems is rarely acknowledged,. However, the location and extent of …

Groundwater Dependent Ecosystem (GDE) protection is increasingly being recognized as
essential for the sustainable management and allocation of water resources. GDE services …

Groundwater drought could cause tremendous damage to the social-economy via land
subsidence, seawater intrusion and permanent loss of aquifer storage capacity, and often …

Many land-based ecosystems are dependent on groundwater and could be threatened by
human groundwater abstraction. One key challenge for the description of associated …

Groundwater (GW) use has intensified in recent decades, threatening the ecological integrity
of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs). The study of GDEs is limited; therefore …

Groundwater is an integral component of the water cycle, and it also influences the carbon
cycle by supplying moisture to ecosystems. However, the extent and determinants of …

Groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) exist all over the world, especially in water-
limited regions. To achieve better water management, it is necessary to map and identify …

The importance of groundwater in preserving the health of water resources such as rivers,
lakes, streams, and associated vegetation is often ignored or underestimated, which shows …

Terrestrial groundwater dependent vegetation (TGDV) are crucial ecosystems which provide
important goods and services such as carbon sequestration, habitat, water purification and …
