construct another dam, and chow thought his water rights were being violated this led to the case of Gin S. Chow v. City of Santa Barbara. The state ruled in favor of the defendant stating, “where no use is made of such waters on the riparian land and no benefit accrues to riparian land from their passage over the bed of the stream, and no damage is caused to the riparian land from the proposed diversion."( Chow v. Santa Barbara) The ruling was made because the overflow of the dam the water would

beaver’s determination warrants this mammal’s protection and understanding. The first lesson people learn from beavers is how to be selective. Beavers build only what they need to survive. When selecting materials to use to construct their lodges and dams, beavers choose a variety of wood, brush, mud, and twigs to build and reinforce their structures. Materials that do not meet the beavers’ purpose are cast aside. The second lesson people learn from beavers is how to be adaptable. Beavers work with

On September 26th, Doctor Robert McTaggart came in and spoke to us about nuclear energy. Nuclear energy uses the heat produced from nuclear transformations and reactions to power turbines which create energy. A majority of the time, nuclear plants run off the fission of one of three elements: Uranium 235, Uranium 233, or Plutonium 239. Something else that Dr. McTaggart said that really stuck with me was that fissile isotopes like U-235 give off more energy than is put into the system. Currently in

Tucker, were trailing behind us, so they started dunking them. We had so much fun, being able to mess around the whole school day with no teachers telling us not to. After all, it was a “social experience.” I remember that we came across this mini-dam, I guess, and when we were talking pictures and whatever, one of the students fell in! There was also these weird metal pipes over a huge pole block of cement. “IT’S THOR’S HAMMER!!!” I remember saying. There were some girls ahead of us taking “selfies”

government purchased a privately owned and run dam as a national control on electricity. Another dam was built in 1929 to assist in power generation. These power stations supplied Auckland, the bay of plenty and Rotorua as well as Waikato itself. Growing need for electricity led to a large increase in dam construction during the mid to late 1900's. Today Hamilton gains most of its electricity requirements from the Waikato river, today 8 hydroelectric dams span along the 425km river. Hydroelectricity

Have you ever imagined picture of California arid and lifeless in the next few years because of the drought? That is likely to come true if we don’t know how to use water wisely. Now in California, The valleys become barren and rivers and lakes are gradually drying up due to lack of water.Because California is in serious shortage of water and the water reserves are being depleted due to the prolonged dry heat and it has been happening for several years and have more negative developments. Since records

serious damage to the roofline due to ice dams. An ice dam is when the snow starts to melt on the roof due to inadequate insulation in the attic of a home. The roof becomes heated yet the air outside isn't warm enough for melting. The water flows towards the gutters where it refreezes. With a clogged gutter, that water can't flow away from the home, and it freezes on the roofline.

Nature has a unique way of working, then the humankind comes and ruins it all. The California Sea Lion is feeding off a species on the endangered species list, The Salmon. The Salmon attempts to travel upstream thru the Bonneville Dam where the Sea Lion awaits them. The Sea lion then eat them not allowing them to travel upstream becoming a greater problem for the already endangered species. This has become a very controversial topic, some believe that they should kill the Sea Lion to prevent them

Kaplan ID: 47513 Module Code: FC5022 Module Title: Skills for Study 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION Life on the earth is largely shaped by the availability and access to clean and safe water. Indeed, water is an essential component in the industrial, agricultural, transport, among other economic and social sectors. However, a research done by UNICEF(2012) states that “Over 780 million people are still without access to improved sources of drinking water and 2.5 billion lack improved sanitation.“ The majority

of Using Storytelling to Enhance Student Learning the writer of this article, Kristie Schulz, was able to show the audience an example of students using a Turtle Gate narrative, that includes scientific investigation about the water quality of the dam in the narrative, face-to-face interviews with a range of experts that deal with turtles and reading about
