1 Groundwater resources in a changing climate May 2007 Dr Ian Holman Senior Lecturer in Groundwater Hydrology Catarina Henriques (Cranfield University) & Delphine Tascone (ENGEES, Strasbourg)
2 Overview Climate uncertainty Other sources of uncertainty for future groundwater resources Increasing resilience Conclusions
3 Climate model uncertainty River discharge Riverdischarge +50% +25% increase +10% small changes -10% -25% -50% decrease Baltic countries, Poland Italy, southern Spain Data-sources: Erhard (2003); Center for Environmental Systems Research, national institutions
4 Annual recharge (Coltishall, Norfolk) mm 79 mm 42 mm 44 mm Annual recharge (mm) [UKCIP02 High emissions scenario / Loam soil / Fair soil condition / permanent grass] Climate data from BETWIXT -
5 >80 [70,75] [75,80] Median annual recharge (100 simulations) 25 Body copy, Arial 26pt frequency 5 0 <25 [25,30] [30,35] [35,40] [40,45] [45,50] [50,55] [55,60] [60,65] [65,70] annual recharge ( mm ) 2020s high 2050s high
6 Climate scenario uncertainty Lots of uncertainty between climate models Lots of uncertainty in downscaling Annual recharge (mm)
7 Because reality won t be like this Present day
8 And it definitely won t be like this Present day UK Groundwater Forum
9 The landscape is more like this. Different natural vegetation Expanding/ contracting towns and villages Planting, growth and felling of trees Spatially & temporally varying cropping
10 And this.. Stagnic Albeluvisol Rendzic Leptosol Chromic Luvisol
11 Groundwater and the landscape If any component of these change:.then so does recharge. What changes might happen? What might the consequences be?
12 Urbanization From this to this!
13 Local-scale urbanization scenario Increase in urban area (%) Each grid square is 5 km x 5 km Holman et al. (2001)
14 Urbanization From this to this! Yang et al. (1999) Nottingham 65% recharge (138mm/a) leaking water mains Hooker et al (1999) Wolverhampton mm/a (preurban) to mm/a Appleyard (1995) Perth, Austr. doubling of recharge
15 Land use Agriculture is an industry, and responds to market and policy forces Changes in landuse will be a function of: Crop yields function of technological development Prices function of demand / policy (subsidies) Consumer demands Legislation Nitrate Dir., WFD etc etc
16 Crop land in 2080 A1FI A2 (HADCM3) Percentage of arable land per ATEAM cell B1 B2 ATEAM Source: EC DG Agriculture
17 Consequences of landuse change Wheat/grass to energy crops- HER reduces by mm/a (Stephens et al., 2001) Actual ET / Potential ET Baseline 2050s Low 2050s High Grass Oilseed rape Forage maize 2050s High Global Market: rural landscape change ~ -35 Ml/d Henriques (2007)
18 Consequences of landuse change Wheat/grass to energy crops- HER reduces by mm/a (Stephens et al., 2001) Actual ET / Potential ET Irrigation demand (Ml/day) Baseline s Low s High Current Baseline SES Global Sustainability 2050s Low Global Markets Regional Stewardship Grass Oilseed rape Forage maize Henriques (2007) Regional Enterprise 2050s High Global Market: rural landscape change ~ -35 Ml/d
19 Impacts of land management Capping Plough pan Compaction
20 Spatial significance Extensive structural degradation was found on: 60-70% of cereal and ley grass sites in Tone < 50% of cereal and ley grass sites in Parrett >= 70% of maize, potato and sugarbeet sites in the Severn, Yorkshire Ouse & Uck 80% of cereal sites in the Uck >=30% of cereal and ley grass sites in the Severn and Yorkshire Ouse Holman et al. (2003)
21 Severity of compaction EEA- Europe s environment: the third assessment
22 Consequences Evidence of lost recharge
23 Consequences Surface runoff across finely cultivated, sandy soil during rainfall of about 1.9 mm per hour. The dye was introduced 1 minute before the photo was taken (T Harrod, NSRI).
24 Consequences on recharge.. Average Annual Recharge ( mm ) poor fair good baseline 2020s 2050s 2080s Hydrologic condition [High emissions / Loam soil] Poor soil conditions reduce recharge by up to ~ 25 %
25 Soils will also change.. Organic Carbon % below Above 50.0 Climate change will affect: SSLRC Cranfield 1998 soil organic carbon - important for structural stability depth & duration of waterlogging - important for hydrological response
26 Consequences.. Declining soil organic carbon Hollis et al. (2005)
27 Consequences.. Hydrology of Soil Types (HOST) used in hydrogeology (recharge estimation) and hydrology (flood studies, low flows) Soils in: HOST class 24 may change to class 18 HOST class 25 may change to class 20 HOST class 15 may change to classes 17 and 4 Hollis et al. (2005)
28 Increasing resilience Climate change effects on future groundwater recharge are likely to be significant But we can increase the permeability of the landscape of allow a greater proportion of potential recharge
29 Urban environments SUDS
30 Cultivation methods Depressional storage / AQUEEL
31 Post-harvest treatments Runoff from harvested maize fields Treatment Conventional Chisel ploughing Under-sowing Cover-crop Overland flow (m 3 /ha) [Martyn et al., 2000]
32 Conclusions Direct climate change effects on future groundwater recharge are significant, but uncertain Climate change will also lead to changes in landuse and land management Future soils won t necessarily have the same infiltration properties as current soils These have implications for future groundwater resources But farming water may allow a greater proportion of potential recharge and increase system resilience
