Product Information
Groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs) are important elements in the landscape that require access to groundwater to maintain their health and vigour. They are important because of their conservation, biodiversity, ecological, social and economic value.
There are two threats to GDEs — outright loss of habitat and outright loss of groundwater resources.
