Michigan Water

For the first paragraph we shall have a quick focus on the geological history of the area of Kalamazoo. The main deposits and formations of the Kalamazoo area where formed during the Wisconsin glaciation period. Now the deposits are actually due to two lobes during this period, the lobes are the Lake Michigan and Saginaw lobe. Kalamazoo is actually know as a “reentrant district” due to the presence of two different lobes materials. During the middle of the Wisconsin Ice Age the Lake Michigan lobe was extending southeastward, while the Saginaw lobe was extending southwest. With the meeting of the two lobes an interlobate developed between the terminals of the lobes. It is also thought that the two lobes overlapped each other. With the Saginaw lobe covering the Kalamazoo area first and then retreating while the Lake Michigan lobe then covered the area. There are also some bedrock formations in the area as well, these formations were established during

Have you ever just wanted to go to a state that has over 10,000 lakes? If so, then Minnesota is the place for you. I have been coming here ever since I was just a little guy. Here is a little story of my Minnesota visits.

In So Much Water So Close To Home, Raymond Carver explores the hardships that society brings upon us by using dialogue and character development to reveal that men and women alike have difficulty reconciling the differences in ethical and moral values. Carver is able to do this by relating to topics that demonstrate the character’s difference in morality. These include such things as death, gender stereotypes, and relationships. While discussing these topics, Carver reflects upon society’s social standard and compares that with the roles of the characters throughout the story.

The present configuration of the Great Lakes basin is the result of the movement of massive glaciers through the mid-continent, a process that began about one million years ago. . . . Studies in the Lake Superior region indicate that a river system and valleys formed by water erosion existed before the Ice Age. The Glaciers undoubtedly scoured these valleys, widening and deepening the and radically changing the drainage of the area (Encyclopedia Britannica )

We are going to talk about Florida’s history, economy, energy resources, famous, landmarks, and geography. It is a state with a lot of good people and places. It has a lot of history and beautiful landmarks. We are going to learn about Florida and everything in it.

Michigan is one of the fifty states within the United States of America and is favored with having the largest shoreline within the U.S. It is characterized by two peninsulas, the upper peninsula (which is obviously cooler) and the lower peninsula which holds a vast majority of the land and also a big chunk of us, Michiganders. The name Michigan comes from the Chippewa Indian word Michigama which means great or large lake. Lake Michigan was called Michigama by the Chippewa Indians. Our unique state is luckily surrounded by four of the five Great Lakes. The Great Lakes in our region have vastly influenced our state and those around us. Without Lake Michigan, Lake Superior, Lake Huron, and Lake Erie, we would not have the large fresh water sources we currently are blessed with, many jobs would not exist, recreational activities would be slim to none, and we simply wouldn’t have the gorgeous views all around us. To say the very least, the state of Michigan is

8. Michigan was hit really hard by the great depression and it took them longer than many other states to get their economy go back up. (Malcolm used to live in Lansing, Michigan in the 1930’s)

The Midwestern region of the United States, such a small corner of the world, is notorious for its prosperous agriculture and its abundant livestock population. Citizens of the Midwest, and consequently, the United States, rarely have to worry about where meals will come from or when the next time water will be available. Water fountains are a common sight within public places, specifically schools and workplaces, and each system reliably produces water at the touch of a button, every time, without fail. However, what happens when the dependability of water in the Midwest is compromised? Over the past decade, the water quality in Flint, Michigan, a town very close to Iowan homes, has seen a rapid decadence, given that the Flint River has been exposed to “the presence of fecal coliform bacteria, low dissolved oxygen, plant nutrients, oils, and other toxic substances,” though the main focus has

I discussed early in the essay about the productiveness of the soil and its contribution to many crops in Wisconsin. I strongly feel Antigo Silt Loam is a big contributor to the successfulness of agricultural crops and the entire agriculture sector. “The reputation of the heartland for all-Americanism has another basis—fertile soil and productive agriculture.” As the glaciers came down from Lake Superior they collected material along the way and carried it throughout Wisconsin. When the glaciers started melting 11,000 years ago they left behind the mineral debris while they were forming. Sand and gravel were the two main minerals that contributed to the development of Antigo Silt Loam after the melting of the glaciers took place. “And the core of North America is exceptionally fertile, thanks in large part to deposits laid down by continental ice sheets and their meltwaters. Agriculture, since the founding of the republic, has not been just food production but also a mythic way of life, idealized and romanticized over.” A layer of clay and silt blew over the exposed land surface topping off the sandy horizon. Strong winds deposited feet of silty loess and loamy outwash on top of the sand and gravel. When the soil started to develop under the northern hardwood forest, it produced a layer of organic material and a clay enriched

It is not hard to realize that the vast majority of cities in the world are located near a body of water. However, I never really thought about the reason why many American cities are located near the great lakes until I learned about the canals and rivers connecting the lakes to the ocean. One thing I got out of reading about the rise and fall of Detroit is that education is key. This is evident in New York’s ability to rebound from economic crisis. Education correlates with innovation and the spread of new ideas, which is something Detroit did not have and led to its downfall. The crimes against African Americans throughout the history of this country were further expressed and one can see why they rioted in Detroit.

“You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.” Rabindranath Tagore said this meaning that you can’t think that something can change without doing anything about it. Clean water in MInnesota is a big problem. The Clean Water Council should filter all the water resources in Minnesota that are affected by chemicals. Many people are getting sick from drinking their tap water. This is caused by farming chemicals run-off. The access to safe water in Minnesota is a problem. This is an expensive problem to fix. We are also using too many farming chemicals. Farming chemicals run-off is the main reason for this clean water crisis.

Michigan is made up of two peninsulas. The upper, and the lower. The lower being more Technologically advanced unlike the still rustic, and unaltered upper peninsula. These peninsulas can be similar but also very different from each other. These similarities and differences can be shown through culture, technology, communication, and other things.

The great plains are located to the west of the Interior Plains. The great plains consist of a large, flat, and treeless area of land. The nation’s “breadbasket” is known as the Great Plains! These plains are famous for their raising of livestock and agriculture. A large range of mountains that are found west of the Great Plains are known as the Rocky Mountains. This mountain range extends from Alaska to New Mexico and is considered the younger of the two large ranges of mountains in the United States. The Great Lakes connect the middle of the US to the Atlantic Ocean by the St. Lawrence River. That creates one of the world’s major shipping routes. There are five great lakes, and they are Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, Lake Michigan, and Lake Erie. The Great Lakes are rich in mineral resources such as coal and iron. These lakes are also the center of urban and industrial growth. The river that is the longest and busiest river system in the United States and starts off as a small stream in Minnesota and empties into the Gulf of Mexico is known as the Mississippi River. The flat and treeless area that spreads from the Appalachian Mountains to three hundred miles to the west of the Mississippi River are the Interior Plains. These plains stretch into parts of Canada, where the ground is covered in permafrost. Where there is no permafrost, these areas produce different varieties of animal and plant life along with some

HYDROLOGIC CYCLE The hydrologic cycle is a constant movement of water above, on, and below the earth's surface. It is a cycle that replenishes ground water supplies. It begins as water vaporizes into the atmosphere from vegetation, soil, lakes, rivers, snowfields and oceans-a process called evapotranspiration. As the water vapor rises it condenses to form clouds that return water to the land through precipitation: rain, snow, or hail. Precipitation falls on the earth and either percolates into the soil or flows across the ground. Usually it does both. When precipitation percolates into the soil it is called infiltration when it flows across the ground it is called surface run off. The amount of precipitation that infiltrates, versus the
