The hydrological cycle is spinning out of balance as a result of climate change and human activity, according to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization that offers an extensive assessment of global water resources.
Substantiated by field observations, satellite-based remote sensing, and numerical modeling to evaluate global water resources, the WMO State of Global Water Resources 2022 report contains in-depth data on key hydrological factors like groundwater, evaporation, streamflow, terrestrial water storage, soil moisture, cryosphere , reservoir inflows and hydrological disasters.
According to UN Water, currently, 3.6 billion people lack access to sufficient water at least a month per year and this is expected to increase to more than five billion by 2050.
