Describe abstraction? 
water is taken from stores
Why is more water abstracted? 
To meet demand in areas where population density is high
This reduces amount of water in stores eg groundwater, reserviours
What happens during dry seasons?
Even more water is abstracted from stores, especially groundwater and reservoirs, for CONSUMPTION AND IRRIGATION, so stores are DEPLETED FURTHER
