The whole amount of water on earth was generated during the earliest earth ages by volcanoes that emitted water vapor. Currently the amount of water allocated to the oceans, glaciers, polar ice, groundwater, lakes and rivers stays nearly at a constant level. This chapter introduces the physical...
The availability and quantity of water is vital to life on earth and helps to tie together the Earth's lands, oceans and atmosphere into an integrated physical system. Our economic, political and social systems are being greatly affected by alterations in the global water cycle, particularly ...
Using a global field survey of 383 sites across contrasting climatic and vegetation conditions, here we showed that soil biodiversity and functions exhibited pervasive nonlinear patterns worldwide and are mainly governed by water availability (precipitation and potential evapotranspiration). Changes in water...
The results suggest that for half of Earth’s surface (47%), the indirect moisture recycling effects of large-scale tree restoration could offset the direct evaporation effects, thus resulting in slight increases in water availability rather than decreases (Fig. 1g). Varying effects on streamflow ...

Due to climate and human activity, water supply in Jharkhand, India, fluctuates. This study measured AWS and AWA in Jharkhand, India. MODIS NDVI and Terra Climate data processed by Google Earth Engine (GEE) are used in the analysis. Based on mean annual values for NDWI, run-off, precipitat...
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania's water landscape is unjust, inequitable, and uneven. Water rationing and electricity outages affect water availability alongside an overall shortfall in water supply. Using household surveys and interviews, this paper shows that a majority of respondents lack a consistently rel...
Multiple nations and private entities are pushing to make landing humans on Mars a reality. The majority of proposed mission architectures envision ‘living off the land’ by leveraging Martian water-ice deposits for fuel production and other purposes. F
Public communication on water availability is pivotal in highlighting water conservation needs as droughts impact water resources for critical use, such as drinking water quality and accessibility. This paper presents the results of research into public communication on water availability and the implementat...
