Chapter 7 Ap Human Geography

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 action.

Day 38: Some features that have made it difficult to get through the crust and mantle are that the crust is semi solid and the mantle is solid. This is difficult because we are not able to easily get through it. Now as I'm thinking about it I should have attached a bigger drill to the shop. This isn't as easy I

Scale- relationship between a specific place in the world, and the Earth as a whole.

1. West – It is to the west that the sun sets at the end of the day. This fact connects the element of water to the west, since with the setting of the sun darkness approaches and with it coolness, which are aspects of this element. In addition, it is after a hectic day that we wind down and experience a measure of peace and calm. Since the element of water is also associated with calmness it is appropriate to link it with the west and the setting sun.

In the text they used ‘pretty bloody extraordinary’ to describe the project the Paterson is undertaking, the words give off an air of passion to the project. The writer gives off the impression that the whole project is extraordinary with words ‘grand, epic and phrases like ‘not a single soul’.

1) “It’s the sun” - Over the past 35 years, it has been documented that the

1. The reasons why some buildings are in the floodplains is because of agricultural industry. Another reason is population growth and expansion into those areas where people felt safe because of improvements of levees. Even though people were told about the dangers most people relied on disaster insurance instead of flood insurance. There should be laws that prohibit further development of these areas because it is costing the taxpayers lots of money for people that want to live in these areas that know the risks. If there were laws in place they could use some of the land as soccer fields and football fields as overflow ponds if they do want to build in a floodplain they need to raise the ground up by hauling in soils that will let the water pass through into those overfill ponds.

A drought is one of the many natural hazards of nature that occur within Australia. It is a prolonged period of below average rainfall as well as continuous dry weather. This results in there not being enough water for individuals for essential everyday usage and causes impacts on humans and their surrounding environment.

Sand can show its history and the physical environment in which it currently resides. You can tells this by its color and different particles. Sand is composed of shells, coral skeletons of California. Broken down. Things that you can look at to know where it came from colors,particles,and how round it is. Sand is a long process to make like breaches. You can look under a microscope to see what is made

Al-Hama located on the north west of Damascus, is about 8 km of Damascus city, the capital of Syria. It's consider as a mountainous region with civilian nature. Crossed by Barada river from the middle where water is available in abundance, but with the increase of the number of buildings the agricultural lands have decreased in a large percent.

Sougoumba is located 12° 10' 0" North, 5° 11' 0" West in Koutiala the northern part of Sikasso Region. Sikasso region is the southern-most region of Mali.

Most agricultural activities are concentrated in the southern regions, in particular the valleys of the Niger River and its tributaries. The flow of the Niger varies seasonally. High waters occur on the upper Niger from July to October, at the delta from September to November, and at the bend from December to January.

What I found was that when looking at culture it is important to hold a holistic view. What I mean is that it is important to understand that no one is without culture, we as humans find ourselves as being a part of some sort of group and by observing the myths, rituals, key metaphors, and customs of these groups we can gain insights into the values and beliefs of the people within it. However, insights can only be gained by keeping an open mind, which can only be done by wholeheartedly accepting that there are customs, and beliefs that exist beyond our own culture
