Global warming is related to climate and is a global phenomenon. Even though there are regional cold snaps (weather), the average global temperature (climate) continues to increase even during different regions' winter months, the two scientists went on to explain.
It is estimated that groundwater flooding affects a few hundred thousand properties in the UK. Groundwater flooding occurs as a result of water rising up from the underlying rocks or from water flowing from abnormal springs.
Like running water on the surface, groundwater affects the shape of the land. Groundwater can cause erosion through a process of chemical weathering. When water sinks into the ground, it combines with carbon dioxide to form a weak acid, called carbonic acid.Carbonic acid can break down limestone. Groundwater containing carbonic acid flows into any cracks in the limestone.ike running water on the surface, groundwater affects the shape of the land.
