FLOOD A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land which is usually dry.[1] The European Union (EU) Floods Directive defines a flood as a covering by water of land not normally covered by water.[2] In the sense of "flowing water"‚ the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide. Flooding may occur as an overflow of water from water bodies‚ such as a river or lake‚ in which the water overtops or breaks levees‚ resulting in some of that water escaping its usual boundaries‚[3] or it may

Wastewater and stormwater cause the release of metals into the water supply‚ resulting in toxicity. Many of these metals‚ iron and magnesium in specific‚ can reach toxic concentrations that result in a loss of nutrient uptake in aquatic vegetation. Over time‚ heavy metals saturate wetlands and are consumed by wildlife‚ causing deformities‚ cancers‚ and even death in both aquatic and terrestrial animals. Stormwater leads to algal blooms‚ which deplete oxygen levels

a coolant by power plants and industrial manufacturers. When water used as a coolant is returned to the natural environment at a higher temperature‚ the change in temperature decreases oxygen supply‚ and affects ecosystem composition. Urban runoff–stormwater discharged to surface waters from roads and parking lots–can also be a source of elevated water temperatures. When a power plant first opens or shuts down for repair or other causes‚ fish and other organisms adapted to particular temperature range

Water Polution definiton: Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies (e.g. lakes‚ rivers‚ oceans‚ aquifers and groundwater). Water pollution occurs whenpollutants are directly or indirectly discharged into water bodies without adequate treatment to remove harmful compounds. Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water. In almost all cases the effect is damaging not only to individual species and populations‚ but also to

Undara Lava tubes consist of a lava field remaining from a massive volcanic eruption of Mt Undara which occurred 190‚000 years ago. During the Cenozoic‚ there was wide spread igneous activity in Eastern Australia. Volcanism commenced in the late Cretaceous (approximately 70 Ma) and continued through the Cenozoic. The cenozoic is the current geological era. It began 66 million years ago and continues today. About 23.3 km³ of lava flowed from the Mt Undara volcano at an estimated rate of 1000 m³ a

Research Paper on Sustainable Low- Income Housing The most successful‚ long term‚ low-income housing projects are those that use sustainable design and address the social‚ cultural‚ and economic needs of residents. Traditionally built low-income housing projects are associated with high crime rates and high mortality rates among the residents who live in them. They do not provide for the needs of residents‚ resulting in many of the problems these low-income housing projects face today. These problems
