Already in 2019 the amount of ground water in Central Europe was very low. Image Source: Kvas - TU Graz By Falko Schoklitsch - Europe lacks groundwater - a lot of groundwater. The continent has already been suffering from a severe drought since 2018. This is confirmed by satellite data analysed at the Institute of Geodesy at TU Graz. Europe has been experiencing a severe drought for years.

The beginning of this tense situation is documented in a publication by Eva Boergens in Geophysical Research Letters from the year 2020.
