Background Paragraph: Groundwater salinization compromises buffering properties. Vegetation clearance, along with irrigation, causes serious issues. Irrigation increases the water table and mobilizes salts, and vegetation clearance allows it to come in contact with water habitats and vegetation. This stresses species not adapted to high salinity. High levels of salinity reduces water uptake in plants, by causing stomatal closure, reducing photosynthesis. Forests undergo decline in areas of high salinity and shallow groundwater depths because these conditions make them more susceptible to droughts. Forests undergo decline in areas of high salinity and shallow groundwater depths making them more susceptible to droughts. 
Story: A local farm has set up shop in the nearby town of Calico. They have cleared some vegetation and irrigated through nearby Calico Forest. Steven's Forest on the other side of town has not been touched however, and remains as it has been. 
Question: Which forest is more likely to experience a drought?
Calico Forest.
