The cruise ships that normally ferry tourists along the iconic waterway are docked. In the first six months of 2022, Romania's <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hydropower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hydropower</span></a> utility <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Hidroelectrica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hidroelectrica</span></a> generated a third less electricity than it normally does. And Romanian <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wheat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wheat</span></a> farmers say that drought has cost them a fifth of their harvest. Romania is one of Europe's largest wheat producers, and all the more important for the international market in light of Russia's blockage of much of Ukraine's wheat exports.</p><p>"'At towns up and down the Danube, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/drought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>drought</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> take on an existential meaning,' explains Nick Thorpe, author of The Danube: A Journey Upriver from the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackSea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackSea</span></a> to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackForest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackForest</span></a>.

The less water in the water system as a whole, explains Gabriel Singer, an ecologist at University of Innsbruck, Austria, the less dilution for <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/salts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>salts</span></a> and the slower a river flows.
