|a Recent studies suggest the increasing contribution of
groundwater depletion to global sea-level rise. Groundwater
depletion has more than doubled during the last decades,
primarily due to increase in water demand, while the
increase in water impoundments behind dams has been
tapering off since the 1990s. As a result, the contribution of
groundwater depletion to sea-level rise is likely to dominate
over those of other terrestrial water sources in the coming
decades. Yet, no projections into the 21st century are available.
Here we present a reconstruction of past groundwater
depletion and its contribution to global sea-level variation,
as well as 21st century projections based on three combined
socio-economic and climate scenarios (SRES) with transient
climate forcing from three General Circulation Models (GCMs).
We validate and correct estimated groundwater depletion
with independent local and regional assessments, and place
our results in context of other terrestrial water contributions
to sea-level variation. |
