Executive Summary : | Groundwater GW, the world's largest freshwater reserve, is facing deterioration due to climate change. Salinization is a pressing issue, particularly in Israel and India. Machine Learning models will be trained using 40 years of monitoring data from Israel, and deep learning-based models will be developed for country-scale analysis. The models will map salinization, identify susceptible zones, and project future salinization processes. |
