Loss of fresh water from the soil facilitates increasing the level of oceans faster than melting glaciers, indicates scientists’ data.

The water on our planet is missing at an unprecedented speed, and the new analysis indicates that a significant part of it enters the ocean. According to Sciencealert, Susha is now playing a more important role in increasing sea level than soluble glaciers.

The research team from the University of Flem (India) has reviewed more than two decades of NASA’s satellite observations and created a picture of changes in water reserves since 2002. Results show that dried territories will increase annually in the square, twice as large in the state of California in the United States.

“The dry regions dry faster than the wet ones become more wet -wet, and the area of dry lands increases,” the report said. This means a general decrease in groundwater sources, which negatively affect rivers, lakes and underground water. Today, 75% of humanity live in countries where fresh water reserves are reduced.

Most water bred from the continents enters the ocean, which facilitates the increase in sea level. Especially severe losses occur at high latitude, where melting glaciers and permafrost causes water leakage. In regions without glaciers, the main factor is the excessive use of human water.

Severe droughts in Central America and Europe have also improved the problem. Rainfall changes caused by gasoline fuel make people in underground waters, in addition to depleting these resources. Significant water consumption is observed in the agrarian regions, such as the central valley of California and the territory around the dried sea of the lesson.

We remind you, earlier it was reported that in Ukraine there was a critical low water in the rivers.
