Decades of less rainfall have cut replenishing of groundwater to 800-year low in WA

Despite its importance, we know very little about how this resource is replenished over time.

Key Points: 
  • Despite its importance, we know very little about how this resource is replenished over time.
  • In a world-first study, we have used caves to show the decades-long decline in rainfall in south-west Australia has reduced the replenishment of groundwater in the region to an 800-year low.
  • The region’s drying climate means rainfall may no longer be reliably replenishing its groundwater.

How can caves tell us about groundwater recharge?

    • In caves, we can directly observe water on its way to becoming groundwater.
    • This is an advantage when we want to understand how rainfall replenishes groundwater (technically known as groundwater recharge).
    • In this study, we measured seven stalagmite records and also water dripping from the cave ceiling from caves located in the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park.
    • Stalagmites grow up from the cave floor in limestone caves.

What does this mean for groundwater recharge?

    • This flow supplies larger volumes of water to groundwater compared to porous flow.
    • We now understood how the stalagmite record has captured changes in the groundwater recharge process.
    • Upticks further back in time would indicate if similar reductions in groundwater recharge had occurred.

What does this mean for the region’s water supply?

    • Groundwater supplies three-quarters of the water used in the region and future groundwater use is expected to increase.
    • These trends also pose a threat to the plants and animals that live in groundwater-dependent ecosystems.

      This research includes looking at ways to improve water security, such as water banking.

    • Excess water resources, such as recycled stormwater, are stored when available and used during dry years or a drought.

TORONTO, July 4, 2023 /CNW/ - The Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) has submitted recommendations for an Integrated Strategy for Radioactive Waste to Canada's Minister of Natural Resources for consideration.

Key Points: 
  • TORONTO, July 4, 2023 /CNW/ - The Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) has submitted recommendations for an Integrated Strategy for Radioactive Waste to Canada's Minister of Natural Resources for consideration.
  • While the majority of Canada's radioactive waste has long-term disposal plans, there are gaps – particularly with some low-, intermediate- and non-fuel, high-level wastes.
  • The Strategy recommends approaches to address the gaps identified in waste disposal planning for all of Canada's radioactive waste from electricity generation and the production of medical isotopes.
  • Low-level waste - It is recommended that low-level waste be disposed of in multiple, near-surface disposal facilities, managed by waste generators and waste owners.
