✦ Synopsis

The history of land subsidence in Japan can be traced back to the late 1930s. During the past century the suppression of the land subsidence has been a constant challenge in groundwater resources management. This paper deals with the latest measured for land subsidence. The current approach is rooted in optimizing the groundwater pumpage without land subsidence. Today, an adjusted approach is required for more groundwater to meet water shortages in the summer season.

Barends 8c others, (IAHS; Publication, 234), 1995, pp 31-33. As a result of intensive abstraction of groundwater in Kelantan, the author is afraid that the land in the area is subsiding. To monitor the phenomena, the author will use the global positioning system technique. (Author)
