East River

Late stage shrubsThis site is located on Gunn Road on the outskirts of Matamata, Waikato. A tributary of the Waitoa River flows through the middle of the site. The majority of the site has wet soils, and in winter some areas can be prone to flooding, particularly nearer to the stream. Regardless the ground tends to be boggy, particularly in winter. Consequently, this was historically conifer forest or swaps (Waikato Regional Council, n.d.-b). Currently, willow, grass and blackberry dominate the majority

waste from the industries. Dams have built to generate electricity for cities, but it also blocks the water flow of the rivers. For example, the dam that was built in West Africa in the Volta River blocked the river’s annual flows of up to 4 times (Middleton, 2012). Additionally, Industries sometimes do not store their chemical substances carefully and it might drip into the river, whereas some industries directly eject the used chemical straight into the waterbodies. For example, the Taiwanese government

be investigating the changes along the long profile of a river. In order to do this, I will be collecting data and making observations at three different points along the river; the upper course, the middle course, and the lower course. The river which I will be conducting my observations would be on Bartley Water. Bartley Water is a river going through the New Forest which is located in the south of the UK, Hampshire. The source of the river begins from Bartley, 109m above sea level, and joins to

Hatchet Book Report The book I read is Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. It is about a thirteen-year-old boy named Brian. This story takes place in the Canadian wilderness without a specified time. I think this book is both interesting and helpful because of its contents. To summarize the story, Brain was the sole passenger on the tiny Cessna 406 bush plane. He was flying from the U.S. to Canada to spend summer break with his father after his parents divorced. The pilot has a heart attack and the plane

the pollutants? Dirt, Bacteria, Nutrients. Dirt Yeah. Dirt, it was listed as the main cause of water pollution to our rivers and streams. When dirt washes into our streams and rivers it kills any fish eggs clinging to the rocks, also it can clog up the gills of fish which kills them. Another bad thing is that the dirt stops sunlight getting to the plants in the streams or river which stops them being able to photosynthesise which kills them. How does the dirt get into the streams. Well one of the

Rivers constitute a major natural phenomena found on the surface of the earth. They have unique patterns and systems that perfectly fit in the geographical grid. One can establish the facts behind the formation of rivers and the important part they play in the ecosystem by carefully studying their features. However, the topic needs more research to know the reasons behind the uniqueness portrayed by each river. As the river flows, it cuts rocks which it carries them down its course and grinds them

These include population displacement, obstruction to fish movements up and down the river, and changes in water and sediment flow”. (Richardson, Michael 2009). The disadvantages began to out way the advantages. Building of Pac Moon Dam and other Dams have affected Thailand in several other adverse methods. It severely decreased fish up to 60%. “According to the Foundation for Ecological Recovery, the rivers fishing industry alone is worth up to 3 billion annually, and the existing dams are

whether the velocity of water in river has an effect on the abundance of caseless caddis Background information Velocity of water Flow of water is very important within the ecosystem as it has an effect on other abiotic factors such as temperature which then has a knock on effect on where certain plant chose to live within the river or steam. The presence of a certain velocity of water within a river affect the biota within it as it carriers or supports them. In rivers especially discharges vary seasonally

Johns River is suffering from a significant environmental disaster because of toxic substances from municipal and industrial wastewater, fertilizer runoff, failing septic tanks, and stormwater. Consequently, over 55% of the river miles, 80.4% of acres of large water bodies, 59.4 % of estuaries, and 31.4% of coastline miles do not meet water quality standards in Florida (Florida Department of Environmental Protection 119). For that matter, studying those pollution problems that the river faces is

A Scarcity of Water is Occurring in The Rio Grande Basin. What is the source that more than six million people rely for drinking water and irrigation? What river did Will Rodgers describe as “the only river I know that is in need of irrigating?” It is the Rio Grande. With the help of hours of research, this paper will discuss some information about The Rio Grande Basin, why The Rio Grande Basin has been declining and why, the effect that this occurrence has on the environment as well as the
