Salt's Relentless Advance on Freshwater

Saltwater is moving into UK freshwater sources. This global study shows by 2100, it could harm drinking water and farms for millions.

A new study shows saltwater is moving into freshwater sources. This is a bigger problem than last year.

"Called #SaltwaterIntrusion, the phenomenon happens below coastlines, where [fresh and salt] water naturally hold each other at bay.

Spurred by planetary warming, #SeaLevelRise is causing coastlines to migrate inland and increasing the force pushing salt water landward. At the same time, slower groundwater recharge—due to less rainfall and warmer weather patterns—is weakening the force moving the underground fresh water in some areas."

#MiamiCaveCrayfish proposed for #EndangeredSpeciesAct protections: https://www.fws.gov/press-release/2023-09/miami-cave-crayfish

This rare #crustacean species lives underground in the #BiscayneAquifer, in #MiamiDadeCounty, which is increasingly impacted by #SaltwaterIntrusion.

h/t to #CenterForBiologicalDiversity for helping to make this proposed rule happen through legal action: https://biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press-releases/miami-cave-crayfish-to-receive-endangered-species-act-protections-2023-09-19/

"#SaltwaterIntrusion [is] an emerging #climate challenge for communities on groundwater across coastal #NewEngland. The introduction of ocean salt water into tap water makes it taste unpleasant and — in severe cases — undrinkable. Salty tap water also poses health concerns for those with high blood pressure. It corrodes home water systems and appliances. "
