A former open pit copper mine, Berkeley Pit, is now one of the most closely observed disaster in our nature today. The

Senneterre in Quebec, Canada. It is about an eighteen hour drive to go fishing at Parent Lake Lodge. We stay for about two weeks in a small cabin. It’s made of wood and a tile roof. We rent it from a married couple about sixty years old, Lisette and Rolan. It doesn’t cost a lot of money, about two thousand dollars, to stay there two and a half weeks. It is a very small, white, run down cabin overlooking the lake. The view is gorgeous out of a cracked window. You see the deep, blue, glass-like water

Cedar Lake has been known for years to be a swamp of pestilence that many are afraid to touch, and for good reason. The Factories that surround the lake used to dispose of their waste directly into the water. Most of the chemicals are no longer in the water system, and the water quality is now good enough to harvest fish from the lake. The problems faced now are sedimentation that has made the lake shallow, and people’s perception of the lake. The Iowa DNR working alongside the Friends of Cedar Lake

degree range. The lowest Temperature was at the bottom of the lake being 22 meters deep with a temperature at 7.35°C (figure 1). The oxygen levels demonstrated a slightly different graph than the temperature. The oxtengen levels started at 11.84 mg/L. This saturation level rose for the next 2 meters peaking at 11.6 mg/L. Within a few meters the oxygen level dropped to 5.1 mg/L at 5 meters deep, at 6 meters the oxygen

nutrients into fresh water lakes, rivers and reservoirs leads to excessive growth of three different plant species: a) Open water algae (phytoplankton) b) Attached algae (periphyton) c) Higher plants (macrophytes) Above all, these organisms encourage the growth of algae, which absorb dissolved oxygen in the water essential for the survival of fish populations. Occasionally,

My mind was buzzing. What had just happened? In the distance, I saw cars driving by completely unaware of what happened, how I felt. Disappointment, disbelief and fear filled my mind as I was crying hysterically from not knowing what had just happened in my life. I opened my eyes finding myself tilted on the passenger’s door. I didn’t know if I was sleeping and that I was stuck in this nightmare or if this was actually reality. I smelled the car’s engine. It was definitely reality. On June 27th,

Magical Lake In the cold, dark and mysterious forest is where she lived. Vanessa is teenager whose summer is almost ending. She is an only child and her father is always somewhere out of the Country for work purposes. “Mom, when is dad coming home from France it has felt like forever.” Her mother is a stay home mom who loves baking when Vanessa is at school or work. “He should be coming home in about a week or two.” She was a girl who liked adventure and exploring but she never got to go past

narrow path which was hidden behind these two redwood trees. She took the path hoping to find something neat or interesting and indeed she did. In the distance she saw a small lake in the distance. When she finally reached the lake she noticed that it was clean and very clearer than the river by her house. On the side of the lake she found a small beach where the sand’s texture was so smooth it felt good

Joshua Glidden English 102 professor Langham July 8, 2015 “Greasy lake” The title of Boyle’s short story “Greasy Lake” before I start lets quickly get introduced to the word “greasy” and how it is used during this short story. the word greasy is indicating that the persons manners or behaviors are effusively polite in a way that is felt to be insincere and repulsive. Also it is based off of Bruce Springsteen’s song “Spirit in the Night.” The lyrics “It’s about a mile down on the dark side of Route

beautiful day at the lake, my family and I were renting a cottage for a week in July like we usually do every year in the summer. We go up to the Canadian lakes in Michigan (Canadian lakes is a chain of lakes in the middle of Michigan about two hours away from Saline.) It was our second day here and our first real day to go out on the lake and swim, kayak, go on the paddleboat, etc. It was a nice house that had a cabin feel and was made out of almost all wood. The house was right on the lake, and had a nice
