“…Geospatial technology is ideally adapted for the application of different thematic groundwater mapping (Ahmad et al 2020). Moreover, computer-based GIS technology also helps to define best-adapted groundwater recharge areas of the world on the one hand, while also helping to connect groundwater table to other physical and socio-economic parameters and developing forecast maps of potential groundwater levels on the other (Ashtekar and Mohammed-Aslam 2019;Das and Mukhopadhyay 2020).…”

Groundwater and its upcoming crisis are the present-day concern of the scientist. This research mainly focuses on responses of groundwater dynamicity to some important drivers, viz. agricultural yield, groundwater irrigated area, groundwater draft, landuse/landcover, and stage of development. The result of this study has been done under three sections. In the first section, the spatiality of groundwater has been discussed where it has been noticed that the western side of the district groundwater level is near the surface due to low drafting and low agricultural yield. Moreover, hard rock geology in the western part disappoints the drilling process. On the eastern part, rich alluvial soil influences high agricultural yield hence groundwater level lowering down rapidly. In the second section, the nature of groundwater levels has been analyzed through the boxplot, and cluster diagram, where boxplots have been drawn over different geological facies, which depicts groundwater is highly fluctuating in hard clay geology. For example, high agricultural intensity and high groundwater draft is the characteristic feature of hard clay geology. The dendrogram in cluster analysis represents a homogeneous groundwater level fluctuating station in three different time series. Last section deals with the future of groundwater level where an artificial neural network (ANN) model has been applied to extract the predicted groundwater level for 2030. This type of environmental analysis, such as groundwater fluctuations in relation to different sensitive parameters and the use of a machine learning model, would aid potential researchers and communities in making wise groundwater use decisions.

The present study aims to examine the spatio-temporal and seasonal uctuation of groundwater levels in an eastern Indian semi-arid region. Also, it attempted to investigate the involvement of different signi cant groundwater usage factors in causing such variations and trends. Furthermore, by evaluating temporal patterns and the in uence of the crucial drivers, generate meaningful predictions for raising community awareness about the future. A combination of statistical, spatial analysis, and machine learning techniques were used to ful ll the objectives. Overall, the ndings revealed that the south-eastern corner (consisting of Bundwan and Barabazar Blocks), the far western region (especially Jhalda I and II Blocks), and some of the eastern Blocks are most vulnerable to groundwater scarcity. The monitoring stations in this region are typically suffering a signi cant declining trend in groundwater level, with a substantial amount of Sen's Slope. In contrast, the centrally positioned Blocks have lesser susceptibility.The MLR analysis and spatial thematic maps demonstrate a strong association between this spatial pattern of declining groundwater table and the groundwater drivers in consideration. Thus, it is acceptable to suggest that drivers from the human world must be included in the groundwater management planning of the Purulia district. Finally, the predictions from the time series con rm that if no interventions are implemented, the average groundwater level will decline by 2.5 meters by 2030. Therefore, Purulia urgently requires a realistic plan to prevent future generations from becoming refugees in their own land.
