👉 Overdraught, in hydrology and meteorology, refers to an excessive or prolonged period of low water levels in a body of water. This can occur due to several factors such as storms, droughts, or changes in rainfall patterns. Overdraught conditions can lead to flooding, erosion, and damage to infrastructure, as well as affect crop yields and water quality. Understanding the causes, effects, and mitigation strategies for overdraught is essential in managing water resources effectively.
