Causes and mechanisms of water resources degradation Logging of forest Logging is the cutting‚ skidding‚ on-site processing‚ and loading of trees or logs onto trucks. Logging and the subsequent denudation of the forest cover increases surface runoff since there is less oppurtunity for rainwater to sink into the ground. .Retarded or supressed infiltration accelerates overland flow production‚hastening delivery of rainwater into streams and rivers‚ the oftentimes the water ends up as floodwater

(AMD) problems are the most important environmental problems in sulphide mines especially mines which contain pyrite. Oxidation of sulphides in contact with air and water produces sulphuric acid which reduces the pH of water. The result of these reactions is increase in the solubility of heavy metals and consequently pollution of water resources. The Sarcheshmeh copper mine is one of the largest porphyry copper mines in the world which is located in south-eastern Iran. Chemical analysis of over than

4.2.6 Robert’s Mechanism Fig. 4.13: The Robert’s Mechanism Robert‘s linkage is another four-bar approximate straight line generator mechanism with coupler point C. Good results can be obtained with construction parameters d = 1‚ b = 0.538 ‚ a = c = 0.530 e = f = 1.04. Robert‘s mechanism generates a curve which has a linear part parallel to the base link. Links and coupler curve are symmetric.[20] The limitation of this mechanism is that the straight line path is very short
