The following exogenous geological processes and phenomena are widespread in the territory of Lithuania: sea abrasion and reshaping of lakes and water reservoirs, erosion of rivers and ditches, planar erosion; suffusion; karst, swamping; landslides; relief reshaping, etc. Endogenous processes – earthquakes and current tectonic movements - are also recorded in Lithuania. The emergence and development of these processes affect the ecogeological conditions of the territories, endanger the stability of the territories and the structures in them, human economic activity and safety.

Permits shall be issued to natural and legal persons or a group of such persons specifying the types of research to be carried out. Authorization may be granted for one or more types of research. Permits are issued for direct and remote (except hydrocarbon) geological exploration of the underground depths, which are divided into the following types according to the object, research methods and purpose of the underground exploration: mining and exploration (of which: hydrocarbons; ores); groundwater exploration and exploration of all types (including thermal energy of the subsoil); search and exploration of subsoil cavities; subsoil mapping (geological; hydrogeological; geochemical; aerophotogeological; ecogeological; engineering geological; mineral resources; geophysical); engineering geological (geotechnical) research; ecogeological research; geophysical survey; other uses.

Groundwater levels are measured daily in boreholes with electronic sensors. Cclimate change impact on groundwater level regime and groundwater resources could be addressed by analyzing continuous and long-term groundwater level measurements data in generalised format. Therefore, the calculated average monthly groundwater levels data are presented.
