Azerbaijan is facing water scarcity conditions throughout the year, not only in quantitative terms, but also in terms of water quality. In order to meet increasing water demands from agriculture and drinking purposes, Azerbaijan began to abstract more groundwater. The country abstracted around four times more water from groundwater resources in 2017, compared to 2000, which creates environmental problems including aquifer depletion and contamination and landslide triggering (Israfilov et al., 2014). Pressures on groundwater will increase if the current trend of water abstraction continues in the country.
