Droughts are a natural phenomenon with a fairly high frequency worldwide. Their evolution generates, through the water deficit, a state of vulnerability at the level of natural and social components. In areas dependent on groundwater resources this vulnerability is transformed in a high social and economic risk. In this situation can be included the eastern part of Romania where over 50% of the population, predominantly in rural areas, is supplied with groundwater. In order to highlight the negative effects of a n...

The variation in time and space of the groundwater level is conditioned by the variation of climatic parameters. In the current context in which climate change is characterized by periods of prolonged drought and the distribution of precipitation is of the rainfall type, with large amounts of precipitation in a very short time, the groundwater level has accentuated periods of consumption to the detriment of accumulation episodes. In a first phase, the high values of the temperature superimposed over the periods wi...
