Two UD students have papers published in top journal looking at the ocean's role in global climate change
From California’s Central Valley to the croplands of Iran, groundwater depletion has accelerated over the last four decades across the world’s arid food-producing regions. In many parts of the western United States, India, Chile, Spain, Mexico and other countries, groundwater levels have been rapidly declining as water is heavily pumped to irrigate farmlands, according to a new study analyzing measurements from 170,000 wells in more than 40 countries. The research, published in the journal Natur
Better tracking of declines at the edges of the ice sheets suggests previous estimates missed 20 percent of the meltoff. The research highlights the role AI can play in accurately capturing the glaciers’ decline.
Well data from around the world show declines driven by water use and climate change.
Groundwater is rapidly declining across the globe, often at accelerating rates. Writing in the journal Nature, UC Santa Barbara researchers present the
