The decrease in water level happens due to various reasons in the Dead Sea. They are:
1. The temperature is much higher. Therefore there is a huge loss of water through evaporation.
2. The sea not getting water from the nearby rivers due to drought.
3. The water required for irrigation is taken from the sea only.
4. There is no sufficient rainfall in that area also.
5. Hence in a few more years, the sea level becomes almost dry and finally with the decomposition of salt.
