The purpose of this lab is to see if over time progression of industrialization and human development what impacts humans will have on the sustainability of groundwater in our country. This investigation is find out if current human development does not change‚ will groundwater sustainability be affected. Based on the lab it looks like there will be a great impact to humans and our population as a result of groundwater. In the lab‚ we looked at the 1800’s period and

have been unsuccessful and limiting the amount used in agriculture will take years to improve the changed groundwater chemistry. B. Suwannee river basin is located on one of the most productive aquifers in the world‚ the Floridian Aquifer. Jacksonville‚ Tallahassee‚ and Orlando all rely on the Floridian aquifer as the primary water source. The aquifer is recharged when rain and groundwater seep through the soil‚ and discharged through several springs and rivers. However‚ human impact and other

Soil Porosity and Permeability GEO 101 LAB – Earth Science July 26‚ 2014 Soil Porosity and Permeability The focus of week three’s lab in Earth Science is to figure out the porosity and permeability of four different soil types: gravel‚ sand‚ potting soil‚ and soil from my back yard. This lab is designed to look at the porosity and permeability of these four soil samples. Porosity is basically the measure of how much of the soil volume is open space. Permeability is the measurement of how long

A’o‚ L. in his book‚ “Don’t Drink the Water” (1998) rightfully observes that‚ human activities such as mining and drilling contaminate groundwater citing Norwich England whereby‚ such activities contaminated groundwater in 1815. The three experiments were being conducted to determine whether oil‚ vinegar and laundry detergents have an effect on groundwater contamination. The experiment was also being conducted to establish whether filtration is an effective method of water treatment. Furthermore

plagues such as the bubonic plague. One serious threat of people’s health is the pollution of our underground watering systems. Many steps have been taken to help solve the pollution problem‚ a problem that still hasn’t been completely solved. Groundwater is located under the earth’s surface in soil pore spaces‚ an aquifer is a unit of rock or an unconsolidated deposit that can give a decent quality of water this is how ground water is processed. Many people do not know this but ground water is a
