"Called #SaltwaterIntrusion, the phenomenon happens below coastlines, where [fresh and salt] water naturally hold each other at bay.

Spurred by planetary warming, #SeaLevelRise is causing coastlines to migrate inland and increasing the force pushing salt water landward. At the same time, slower groundwater recharge—due to less rainfall and warmer weather patterns—is weakening the force moving the underground fresh water in some areas."

Saltwater will taint 77% of coastal aquifers by century's end, modeling study finds

Seawater will infiltrate underground freshwater supplies in about three of every four coastal areas around the world by the year 2100, according to a recent study led by researchers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California. In addition to making water in some coastal aquifers undrinkable and unusable for irrigation, these changes can harm ecosystems and corrode infrastructure.
