Translation of "Groundwater levels" in German

They also contribute to the adjustment of groundwater table levels.

Furthermore, the mountain region plays an important role for the groundwater levels in eastern Uganda.

Along with the lake level decline, groundwater levels decrease.

Deforestation heavily affects groundwater levels and leads to a drying-out of vital water sources.

In many parts of the world, groundwater reserves are overexploited to such an extent that groundwater levels are being drastically reduced.

In the Ruhrgebiet in Germany groundwater levels are rising because of the cessation of mining.

This takes into account root growth, interactions between the soil and roots, different groundwater levels and other important soil characteristics.

The groundwater levels decline and many communities need to buy water to feed their population.

Parallel to the sea level, the groundwater levels drop as a result of freshwater flow into the Dead Sea.

The flat position of the newland enables versatile soil use, provided that the groundwater levels are controlled.

For example, in many Asian countries – including India, China, and Pakistan – groundwater levels are declining at an alarming rate, owing to over-extraction and energy subsidies.

This profligacy has taken a serious toll on groundwater levels, forcing the tube-wells from which the water is pumped to be installed ever more deeply.

With groundwater levels dropping due to overuse, drought and climate change, the challenge to get enough water daily was becoming harder.

The flooding system inherent to this type of farming stops groundwater levels rising – groundwater near river mouths is salty – preventing soil disintegration and clay disagglomeration.

Moreover, flooding is vital to prevent groundwater levels rising, thus preventing sodium from being adsorbed into the molecular structure of the clay, which would lead to its disagglomeration, i.e. the soil would lose its texture and integrity, making it unsuitable for any type of crop.

The aim of Phase II is to assess the potential for additives to affect non-target species in the environment, including both aquatic and terrestrial species or to reach groundwater at unacceptable levels.

The water samples are conveyed through the piping by means of a pump which has to be lowered in the piping at groundwater levels below the maximum suction head.

Pig farming has a multifaceted - and very often negative - impact on the environment: water, air and soil pollution, odours, loss of genetic diversity, lowering of groundwater levels.

Given that many of the pollutants washed out of the soil over the past decade have not yet reached the water table, it will take between 25 and 50 years for groundwater nitrate levels in the watersheds of the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Germany to fall to an acceptable figure in accordance with the drinking water directive, despite recent cuts in the use of fertilisers in some Member States.

Finally, the ecological disaster: Industrial Agriculture intensifies soil exhaustion, exacerbates climate change and leads to the lowering of river and groundwater levels (“Watergrabbing”).

The west Netherlands was so dried out that water from the Amsterdam-Rhine channel had to be redirected to recharge the groundwater levels.

However, this apparent salvaging of water is causing the water level of the Dead Sea to fall by around a metre per year and, with it, the surrounding groundwater levels.

Further stress factors will be added to these through climate change: falling groundwater levels cause lakes and small streams to dry out and higher water temperatures exacerbate existing problems arising from the overuse of fertilisers and promote algal bloom.
