drawdowns
Gradual resource depletions
Drawdowns are reductions or depletions from a larger supply.
In finance, a drawdown measures the decline from a peak value to a subsequent low: The fund experienced a 15% drawdown during the correction.
Military drawdowns reduce troop levels in a region.
Water drawdowns lower reservoir or aquifer levels.
The term implies controlled or measured reduction rather than sudden collapse.
