     abstract = "{The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission, operational
        from 2002 to 2017, provided critical measurements of Earth's
        gravity field anomalies which have been extensively used to
        study groundwater and terrestrial water storage (TWS) dynamics.
        In this research, we utilize GRACE data to identify, model, and
        analyze potential climate parameters contributing to the
        reconstruction of TWS variability in the Aral Sea Basin region
        (ASB). We assess the impact of climate change and anthropogenic
        nature management on TWS change using a quantitative method. Our
        analysis reveals a significant decline in the TWS at a rate of
        0.44 cm year$^{‑1}$ during the 2005{\textendash}2009 period,
        primarily attributed to the prevailing drought conditions in the
        region. Notably, the estimated impact of anthropogenic influence
        on TWS during the same period of ‑1.39 cm year$^{‑1}$ is higher
        than the influence of climatic variables, indicating that
        anthropogenic activity was the dominant factor in water resource
        depletion. In contrast, we observed an increase in TWS at a rate
        of 0.82 cm year$^{‑1}$ during the 2013{\textendash}2017 period,
        which can be attributed to the implementation of more effective
        water resource management practices in the ASB.}",
