Global warming is related to climate and is a global phenomenon. Even though there are regional cold snaps (weather), the average global temperature (climate) continues to increase even during different regions' winter months, the two scientists went on to explain.
It is estimated that groundwater flooding affects a few hundred thousand properties in the UK. Groundwater flooding occurs as a result of water rising up from the underlying rocks or from water flowing from abnormal springs.
Streamflow coming from groundwater seepage into a stream or river. Groundwater flows underground until the water table intersects the land surface and the flowing water becomes surface water in the form of springs, streams/rivers, lakes and wetlands. Baseflow is the continual contribution of groundwater to rivers and is an important source of flow between rainstorms.
