Excessive groundwater extraction is a worldwide issue that has multiple harmful economic and environmental effects. This extensive review investigates the multi-faceted reasons leading to unsustainable utilization. It examines socioeconomic consequences such as; agriculture decline, population migration, public health risks, instability as well deterioration through land subsidence, depleted aquifers, polluted water resources. The main cause of usage originates from agricultural activities yet urbanization processes industrial development combined with weak governance systems substantially worsen situation. disturbs hydrologic cycles, weakens production, forces vulnerable rural residents relocate into urban centers thereby putting pressure on already strained facilities. Public conditions also deteriorate because decreased quality standards limited amounts available which in turn heighten social disparities. synthesizes existing literature demonstrate interdependent nature these conflicting effects while calling for comprehensive resource management approaches. authors propose sustainable practices like drip irrigation alongside adaptable instruments including price implementation find solutions. Moreover, importance advanced monitoring community empowerment serve major factors building conservation resilience programs. study emphasizes aligning policy integration local needs resolve both degradation aspects depletion. Ultimately, this aims guide policymakers stakeholders implementing effective strategies mitigate over-extraction promote management.

Abstract Water management seeks the optimal solutions to challenges posed by society’s demand for food security, energy production, socioeconomic advancement, and sound ecosystems. In 21st century, complexities of natural disasters human-induced factors impede ability address water security issues. Sub-Saharan Africa is at a critical juncture where it must implement substantial reforms in planning its systems enhance sustainability resources. Yet, region faces numerous water-related issues due complex human such as urbanization population growth, particularly countries like Ethiopia Mauritania. This paper delves into availability, sustainability, management, governance these two regions Horn (Ethiopia) Western (Mauritania). It also highlights practices involved planning, managing, utilizing services areas. Therefore, this provides foundation further research development sustainable resources region.

Lentic ecosystems are highly vulnerable to anthropogenic disturbances, which can lead ecological imbalances with the loss of native biodiversity. This research evaluated impact activities on water quality and trophic status Pacucha Lagoon, Andahuaylas, Apurimac. Seasonal sampling was conducted at six strategic points surface bottom lake, following standardized protocols, during both dry rainy seasons. Physical chemical parameters, metal ions, chlorophyll-a, were determined using Carlson indices, assessed through WQI-PE. The quantification impacts performed Leopold matrix. Statistical analysis included descriptive methods, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, PCA 5% significance. results classify lake as having “Regular” according parameters remain within Environmental Quality Standards (ECA-Peru), while heavy ions exceed limits in system exhibits mesotrophic conditions that tend become eutrophic season, suggesting a favorable nutrient balance for biological productivity. Activities most significant adverse include agricultural practices involve intensive use agrochemicals, morphological alterations surrounding area, unregulated aquaculture. lack effective regulatory mechanisms commitment conservation suggest high risk irreversible degradation Lagoon ecosystem.
