- Humans can pump too much water out from under the ground, lowering the water table. This is happening in India where a soda factory is affecting the livelihood of local farmers and villagers.
- Natural causes include changes in rainfall patterns, too much or too little.

∙ 11y agoHuman activities can affect both the quality and quantity of groundwater. Infiltration of pollutants to the groundwater level can change its composition and excessive pumping can lead to lowering of water table. By diverting the rivers and canal construction, the natural recharge of groundwater can change which may lead to both increase and decrease in water table depending on the area under consideration.
A:A recent study (2012) is showing that when we remove groundwater, for whatever reason, it does not find its way back underground. Rather it finds its way into our waterways where it eventually adds to rising sea levels. Nothing to do with global warming, just human covetousness.Wiki User
∙ 10y agothe height of the water table is influenced byrainfall,tempertasture,surface water interconnections,geometry of the landsurface,geometry of the acquifer,human activities.Also porosity aan permeability
