Groundwater level trends across the Indo-Gangetic basin

This 1 km resolution grid shows mean annual change in water-table levels across the aquifer during the period 2000 to 2010 in meters per year. Methodology and a full list of data sources used can be found in the peer-reviewed paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/ngeo2791.epdf?author_access_token=_2Z_fJZxRkSVmgVJ7xHTVdRgN0jAjWel9jnR3ZoTv0O07GfIlzqIVm44UgFPb1r62_FUJLao4zkJSzYpv-4gIWJorRXEpgh4iarB8vlRNY_tGV_18CAf2j-_GnADYbdp The raster and a high resolution PDF file are available for download on the website of British Geological Survey (BGS): http://www.bgs.ac.uk/research/groundwater/international/SEAsiaGroundwater/mapsDownload.html
