The purpose of this lab is to see if over time progression of industrialization and human development what Impacts humans will have on the sustainability of groundwater In our country. This investigation is fled out if current human development does not change, will groundwater sustainability be affected. Based on the lab it looks like there will be a great impact to humans and our population as a result of groundwater.
In the lab, we looked at the offs period and compared the progression to the sass’s and cays to see the Impacts and changes that happened over the period which would determine if groundwater is increasing or decreasing the population. We notice the changes to the forest, the groundwater level, industrial development and population changes. See changes based on data in chart below.
The lab proved otherwise and the fact that this same water is used for drinking and irrigation, over time and with the saltwater intrusion since this water is going in and out of the ocean and is used for industrial development, there would be a water supply shortage which would definitely affect a growing human population. It is also decreasing our farming since there Is more demand for water with the population and less to be used for Irrigation needed for framing.
