Groundwater accounts for 98 percent of the earth's potable water. [1] An excess of fluoride in drinking water causes dental fluorosis and skeletal fluorosis . The World Health Organization has recommended a guideline value of 1.5 mg/L as the concentration above which dental fluorosis is likely. [ 2 ]

Graphic on Groundwater Flow. Groundwater-Dependent Ecosystems (or GDEs) are ecosystems that rely upon groundwater for their continued existence. Groundwater is water that has seeped down beneath Earth's surface and has come to reside within the pore spaces in soil and fractures in rock, this process can create water tables and aquifers, which are large storehouses for groundwater.
