River deltas are sinking faster than the sea is rising

Earth’s river deltas, home to about 5% of the global population and some of the world’s major cities, are experiencing subsidence, which exacerbates the risks from sea-level rise. The Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission has captured a decade's worth of data showing land sinking faster than previously thought.

Experts say sinkholes more than 200 feet deep began appearing in the 2000s, driven by drought and extensive groundwater extraction. #groundwater #Turkey #subsidence #water #climatechange https://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/nearly-700-massive-sinkholes-consume-turkey-farmland-fueled-by-extreme-drought/1843284
