Lago di Pietra del Pertusillo
artificial lake in the Province of Potenza, Basilicata, Italy, and serves as the primary source of drinking water for more than one and a half million people in the region.
Scientific publication : 2022 Remote Sensing Detection of Algal Blooms in a Lake Impacted by Petroleum Hydrocarbons − to understand algal blooms in a lacustrine environment impacted by petroleum hydrocarbons.
This lake has long been subject to repeated hydrocarbon pollution. There is a refinery and storage close to the lake, the Val d’Agri oil field, owned by the Italian company ENI,
Conva Contro is an environmental investigative NGO involved in field outdoor investigation and collaborated in 2022 scientific paper above.

The region is « Overall Water Risk: Extremely High (4-5) »
From “European Drought Risk Atlas EDRA” Average annual loss in maize yields due to drought. Values are expressed as a percentage of the average expected value.
The average annual loss is the estimated annual drought-induced impact, expressed as a percentage of region-specific production. For present-day conditions, the average annual loss is based on the most recent five years data available. For the baseline*, the average annual loss is calculated with data from 1981 to 2010. When at global scale a certain warming level is steadily achieved, the corresponding average annual loss is calculated using a 30-year time window.*
