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

Causes of floods Flood is overflow of the huge amount of water onto the normally dry land. Flood occurs when the overflowing water submerges land and causes deluge. It is a cruel and violent expression of water. Catastrophic floods are the floods that are caused by some significant and unexpected events‚ for instance dam breakages. Heavy rainfalls are one of the major causes of floods. The level of water in rivers or lakes rises due to heavy rainfalls. When the level of water rises above the

Introduction: This lab investigates the question‚ what is the water quality of the U-High creek based on micro invertebrates found in the creek? There are many factors that affect the quality of water such as phosphorus and nitrogen levels‚ dissolved oxygen‚ and pH. Phosphorus and nitrogen in water can increase the growth of aquatic plants and algae‚ leading to the decomposition of dead plant material and the removal of dissolved oxygen from water. The total nitrogen concentrations for freshwater
