The Global Futures and Strategic Foresight (GFSF) team met in Rome from May 25-28, 2015 to review progress towards current work plans, discuss model improvements and technical parameters, and consider possible contributions by the GFSF program to the CRP Phase II planning process. All 15 CGIAR Centers were represented at the meeting.

Progress and challenges in modelling global
groundwater depletion - experience with
PCR-GLOBWB
25th May, 2015
2. 1. How are constraints in groundwater
availability and access influencing global
groundwater depletion?
2. How is groundwater depletion
influencing global food production?
3. How can better groundwater
management improve food security?
Objective/Research questions
3. Groundwater depletion occurs when the rate of groundwater
abstraction is greater than the rate of replenishment
Groundwater depletion: What is it?

Results from Phase I of our work
7. 1. Non-renewable GW is implicitly assumed
to be unlimited (same as in IGHM)
2. GW pumping is not constrained by socio-
economic and technical factors.
Shortcomings of PCR-GLOBWB model
9. 2nd constraint: Pumping capacity
Regional-scale groundwater abstraction limit (109 m3/yr) for 2005
From IMPACT
10. 2nd constraint: Pumping capacity
Global groundwater abstraction limit for the period 1960-2015
11. River flow stations for calibration and validation
Locations of GRDC discharge stations used in this study. Black dots represent stations
selected for calibration and yellow dots represent stations selected for validation.
12. Recursive filter method by Nathan and McMahon (1990):
qd = β qd-1+ (1+ β) (Qd - Qd-1)/2 separated surface flow
qb = Qd - qd separated baseflow
Baseflow separation
Calibration parameters
fD: Pre-factor for degree day factor
fW: Pre-factor for soil water capacities
fK: Pre-factor for upper soil sat. hydraulic conductivity
fJ: Pre-factor for groundwater recession coefficient

22. SSP5
Pumping in depleted regions is not controlled
MAR/UTFI is implemented on a large scale,
mostly to control extreme flooding
Balanced new GW dev. in potential regions to
adapt to CC
Trade/virtuous virtual water flows
constrained by dominant economic
development imperatives
Water productivity from GW (and SW) not
improved
SSP3 (worst case)
Pumping in depleted regions is not controlled
MAR is not practised
Unbalanced new GW dev. in potential regions
Trade/virtuous virtual water flows
constrained by dominant self-sufficiency
strategies
Water productivity from GW (and SW) not
improved
SSP1
Pumping in depleted regions is controlled
through regulations and incentive-based
methods
MAR is implemented on a large scale
Balanced new GW dev. in potential regions
Trade is deliberately used to control GW
depletion (virtuous virtual water flows)
Water productivity from GW (and SW)
improved
SSP4
Pumping in depleted regions is controlled
through effective energy policies
MAR is not implemented
Unbalanced/unequal new GW dev. in
potential regions, e.g. for biofuels
Trade is deliberately used to control GW
depletion (virtuous virtual water flows), but
not benefitting the smallholders
Water productivity from GW (and SW)
improved to save energy in commercial
farming
Scenario Storyline
23. 1. Availability and access constraints to GW are critical to
consider in future food security scenarios
2. Adding constraints and calibration improved the model’s
handling of groundwater.
3. This compares well to previous estimates (145+/-39 km3
yr-1, Konikow (2011)).
4. Once included in IMPACT, global scenarios for different
SSPs will be created and analyzed
5. Focus on country and regional level studies.
