increase in size? In this lab study‚ scientist will be measuring the amount of precipitation within the discovery of the finch on Darwin and Wallace island‚ and collect data to prove that the finches evolved a larger beak due to the increase of rainfall. To determine if the beak enlarged in size with the increase of rain fall‚ scientist will travel to Darwin and Wallace Islands to collect samples. The samples being collected will be the average size of a finch beak‚ and the average amount of

For example‚ the Wright Campus Center building has a square footage of 82‚000 feet (Austin College‚ 2012). In a one-inch rainfall‚ half a gallon of water can be collected from just one square foot of roof (Reduce storm water runoff with a rain barrel‚ 2011).

Plate Tectonics The forces that shape the earth begin beneath the lithosphere. Rock in the asthenosphere is hot enough to flow slowly. Heated rock rises‚ moves up toward the lithosphere‚ cools and circulates downward. Riding above this circulation system are the tectonic plates‚ enormous moving pieces of the earth’s lithosphere. [pic] Plate Movement Tectonic Plates move in four different ways. When tectonic plates come into contact‚ changes on the earth’s surface occur. 1. Diveregnt Boundary-

The two rivers are the Derwent and Cocker. 320mm of rainfall fell in under 24 hours and this was a predicted fall which took the town by surprise. The River Cocker burst its banks after a 2.5 metre rise in the river water level; this was a major contribution to the flooding as well as the poor preparation
