Groundwater is an important environmental resource. If icecaps and
snow are excluded, it represents 96- 97% of the available
freshwater on Earth. Due to growing global demands for groundwater,
accurate estimates of its stocks, recharge rates, and their
regional distribution are essential. Despite a significant number
of existing global groundwater balance studies, estimated numbers
of available stocks and recharge differ with a variance of up to
585%. The aim of this study is to identify and analyze the factors
that contribute towards uncertainties and limitations of existent
groundwater assessment studies and methods. It discusses
possibilities for reducing their magnitude and explores the
potential for generating more accurate estimates of available
global groundwater resources.
