We hope you have a great world water day! May you sip a cool, refreshing glass of renewable groundwater and feel excited to make the world a better, more sustainable place.
Groundwater—the world’s largest freshwater store— is a life-sustaining resource that supplies water to billions of people, plays a central part in irrigated agriculture and influences the health of many ecosystems. Water Underground is a groundwater nerd blog written by a global collective of hydrogeologic researchers for water resource professionals, academics and anyone interested in groundwater, research,
teaching and supervision. The blog, started and led by Tom Gleeson, is the first blog hosted on both the
EGU blogs and the AGU blogosphere.
