CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION WATERSHEDS A watershed is a basin-like landform defined by highpoints and ridgelines that descend into lower elevations and stream valleys. A watershed carries water "shed" from the land after rain falls and snow melts. Drop by drop‚ water is channeled into soils‚ groundwater‚ creeks‚ and streams‚ making its way to larger rivers and eventually the sea. Water is a universal solvent‚ affected by all that it comes in contact with: the land it traverses‚ and the soils through

They pump out the water‚ which when it becomes less pressurized‚ it turns into steam which turns a turbine which generates electricity. Once the water or a different heating liquid is cooled down enough‚ it is pumped back into the reservoir The temperature of the water that comes out is from 220-600 degrees Fahrenheit.

Humidity & Relative Humidity Humidity is defined as the amount of moisture in the air. Air contains a certain amount of water vapor. The amount of water vapor any mass of air can contain depends on the temperature of that air. The warmer the air is‚ the more water it can hold. A low relative humidity means that the air is dry and could hold a lot more moisture at that temperature. For example‚ at 20 degrees C (68 degrees F)‚ a cubic meter of air can hold a maximum of 18 grams of water. At
