“…Nutrient sources are chemical fertilizers, amendments, raw sludge, or biosolids from wastewater treatment plants, and wastewater overflows which end up in natural receivers. In addition, some amount of nutrients also becomes available by the usage of fire retardants during fire distinguishing, since their composition resembles that of fertilizers [126,127] (see Figure 2).…”

“…After intense rainfall events, nutrients are eluted from the topsoil layer. Recurrences of fires over the same site deteriorate soil deprivation in nutrients [125], jeopardizing stream water quality and, potentially, shallow aquifer or karst aquifer water quality which are vulnerable to pollution [126,127]. Tsypkin and Brevdo (1999) [128] after studying the evaporation impacts on groundwater quality, indicated a mechanism of pollutant deposition in groundwater caused by ET.…”

Evapotranspiration (ET) is a parameter of major importance participating in both hydrological cycle and surface energy balance. Trends of ET are discussed along with the dependence of evaporation to key environmental variables. The evaporation paradox can be approached via natural phenomena aggravated by anthropogenic impact. ET appears as one of the most affected parameters by human activities. Complex hydrological processes are governed by local environmental conditions thus generalizations are difficult. However, in some settings, common hydrological interactions could be detected. Mediterranean climate regions (MCRs) appear vulnerability to the foreseen increase in ET, aggravated by precipitation shifting and air temperature warming, whereas in tropical forests its role is rather beneficial. ET determines groundwater level and quality. Groundwater level appeared to be a robust predictor of annual ET for peatlands in Southeast Asia. In semi-arid to arid areas, increases in ET have implications on water availability and soil salinization. ET-changes after a wildfire can be substantial for groundwater recharge if a canopy-loss threshold is surpassed. Those consequences are site-specific. Post-fire ET rebound seems climate and fire-severity-dependent. Overall, this qualitative structured review sets the foundations for interdisciplinary researchers and water managers to deploy ET as a means to address challenging environmental issues such as water availability.
