Sorensen. Urban population. By 2050 the urban population of SSA is projected to increase from 40 to nearly 60% and exceed 1.26 billion (UN, 2011).. Natural woman. The rapid growth of many urban areas has overwhelmed the ability of many local authorities to provide basic infrastructure. Much of the global H. 2. O, resides below the surface of the Earth in what geologists refer to as . groundwater. . . Although in the subsurface, it has a large impact on society and the features that we see on the surface of the Earth..  . K. J. . Anandha. . kumar. Associate Professor .

The rate of movement of groundwater is gravity driven, varying between 0.6 inches per day (in sandstones) to several inches per year (in . granites. ).

The present-day surface hydrologic cycle. The numbers in parentheses refer to volumes of water in millions of cubic kilometres,. and the fluxes adjacent to the arrows are in millions of cubic kilometres of water per year.. Key points (what your kiddos REALLY need to understand!). We . cannot. consider surface water without thinking about groundwater. Groundwater and surface water do not flow the same way. Interactions between groundwater and surface water may “shift” as a result of other factors. RECAP: Where we have been in this litigation….. Starting in 2017 lawsuits targeted three groups:.
