Hydrological Cycle Hydrological cycle is the process that involves the continuous circulation of water in the Earth-atmosphere system. The hydrologic cycle is a conceptual model that describes the storage and movement of water between the biosphere‚ atmosphere‚ lithosphere‚ and the hydrosphere. Water on our planet can be stored in any one of the following major reservoirs: atmosphere‚ oceans‚ lakes‚ rivers‚ soils‚ glaciers‚ snowfields‚ and groundwater. Water moves from one reservoir to another by

Fresh water pollution is a problem that is widespread and there are no areas that are immune to it. Living in a rural community is a pleasure‚ but when you actually sit down and look at the facts surrounding all of the river bottom farm lands‚ manufacturing companies‚ and rock quarries that have nonpoint surface runoff‚ you realize that there is more than meets the eye. My plan for sustaining cleaner fresh water in our lakes‚ streams‚ and rivers is to start by educating our community. In order

CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION Flooding is one of the major environmental crises one has to contend of within the century. This is especially the case in most wetlands of the world. The reason of this is the general rise in sea level globally‚ due to global warming as well as the saturated nature of the wetlands in the Niger Delta. Periodic floods occur on many rivers‚ forming a surrounding region known as flood plain. Rivers overflow for reasons like excess rainfall. The good thing

Introduction And what is known about the sustainability of current groundwater‚ it is that it will not last. Ponce (2006) states” The unsustainable use of groundwater stands to significantly impact a host of hydrological‚ ecological and other natural resources and services‚ including freshwater bodies‚ and aquatic‚ riparian‚ transitional‚ and ecosystems.” All life on planet earth depends on clean freshwater to survive and It is very important that this natural resource is taken care of properly

In this Geography GCSE controlled assessment project‚ I will be focusing on rivers and I have chosen a hypothesis to prove that erosion is making an impact on the Loughton Brook Rivers. My hypothesis is‚ “The river Loughton brook becomes wider and deeper due to erosion as it moves downstream”. I will be investigating if erosion takes place downstream in the river. I will investigate if hydraulic action has an impact. I will study about vertical erosion‚ lateral erosion‚ Cross profile and hydraulic

Physical Geography Filed Work The aim of this field work was to study the long profile and its characteristics of the River Lym. The velocity then drops at the mouth where it tends to deposit its load The velocity then drops at the mouth where it tends to deposit its load This is the general long profile of the river where the gradient decreases as you go down the river. The source is highest point of the river basin which usually is a mountain. This is the general long profile of the river
