Kaileah Diaz November 10‚2017 Period: 3 Weathering Lab Report Water erosion is usually caused by rainfall and runoff on a slope‚ and the magnitude of water erosion depends on the type of soil. This can occur on river banks‚ seashores‚ streams‚ or even seaside cliffs. Muddy water is also a sign of erosion. There are brown hue results from the suspension of rock and soil particles inside the water. Water erosion usually happens in the springtime because there is usually a lot more rainfall and

measures are not taken. The result can be unnaturally high concentrations of some chemicals‚ such as arsenic‚ sulfuric acid‚ and mercury over a significant area of surface or subsurface. Runoff of mere soil or rock debris -although non-toxic- also devastates the surrounding vegetation. The dumping of the runoff in surface waters or in forests is the worst option here. Submarine tailings disposal is regarded as a better option (if the soil is pumped to a great depth) Mere land storage and refilling

On Friday February 03‚ 2012‚ we visited Don Egerico Mora Camacho and his wife Cecilia’s ranch. “They own 95 hectares of land‚ of which 5 hectares‚ in the lower part of the property‚ is in organic coffee and 90 hectares‚ which extend from their house up towards the Caraigres Mountains‚ is in cattle pastures.” We examined the land use capacity and made an evaluation the class of the soil. Honestly‚ this was a very interesting project for me because I had never done an experiment like such. Having

What is gully erosion? Gully erosion is the removal of soil along drainage lines by surface water runoff. Once started‚ gullies will continue to move by headward erosion or by slumping of the side walls unless steps are taken to stabilise the disturbance. Repair work done in the early stages of newly formed gullies is easier and more economical than letting the problem go unchecked for too long. Large gullies are difficult and costly to repair. What causes gully erosion ? Gully erosion occurs

DRAINAGE SYSTEM DESIGN Objective: The drainage system for the project functions to ensure effective transportation of storm water in order to avert the occurrence of flooding of the site. It also helps to safely discharge grey wastewater from buildings to their end points. NATURE OF SITE‚ LOCATION AND TOPOGRAPHY: The sight‚ predominantly sandy‚ slopes to the south-western part. Due to this topography‚ water flows to the southern part of the community and since there are insufficient drains to collect
