| description | The study assessed the impacts of LULC changes on the groundwater during the period of 1985–2015 in Tabuk, one of the fast-developing cities of the arid environment of Saudi Arabia. The study provided a clear indication that the unsustainable use of groundwater puts Tabuk at high risk of groundwater depletion. The findings of this study can be used to inform water management decision-makers and strengthen water security in the region and country more broadly. |
