Q18. A groundwater basin of 144.7 km2 receives 126.7 cm of recharge on average each year. Groundwater loss from the basin in the form of evapotranspiration occurs at a mean rate of 62.9 cm/year (i.e. there is no groundwater discharge to the sea or rivers). Pumping draws groundwater from the basin at a rate of 0.65 m3/s. What is the rate of change in storage in GL/year? (note: 1 GL = 109 L)
