The Water Body Of Water
An oligotrophic body of water has a low nutrient level, which allows for more light penetration. It
has high dissolved oxygen rates, deep waters and low algal growth. The bottom of the water bodies
(lakes), are made of rock, gravel, or sand. The oligotrophic water bodies are home to smallmouth
bass, lake trout, pike, sturgeon and whitefish.
Eutrophic bodies of water have higher nutrient levels, which causes poor light penetration. There is
low dissolved oxygen and shallow water. This all causes higher algal growth. The bottom of the
lakes are made of silt, sand or clay. Carp, bullheads or catfish can be found in the lakes.
Eutrophication is a serious concern for lakes as it can turn an oligotrophic body of water into a
eutrophic body of water, which is dangerous to the ecological diversity.
2. Most natural transistions from an oligotrophic water body to an eutrophic water body will happen
over time, through, sediment erosion, leaf litter, or dying aquatic vegetation and other organisms. As
well, some anaerobic microbes become incapable of performing their tasks, causing a lack of proper
waster digestion and water purifications, this builds up algae which slowly leads to the water body
becoming an Eutrophic lake.
Humans of course tend to speed–up these sorts of problems. For more point source pollution there
are the obvious actual pollution, of sewage, garbage, chemicals or otherwise that we empty off into
lakes. However, even atmospheric pollution can lead to lakes

The Battle Of The Creek
Smog is suffocating the clouds, and leaving it grey. The surrounding sounds of screeching and
machines sputtering to the command of their owners interferes with the soft whispering of the creek
itself. Everyday, every hour, the creek is poisoned. The monsters release their poison from their
chambers and dispose of it into life. Past a certain point, the creek is unable to breathe, and instead
of whispers, you hear gasps. It's dead. Over the generations, especially in this day and age,
ecological problems have become top priority whether it's to presidential debates or the uprising of
the environmentalists who stayed quiet for far too long. It doesn't have to be a large national park,
but observing a not–so–well–known creek like Newtown Creek, represents the sludge and poison
industrialism and the human race itself has force–fed nature. Seeing a desolated creek will make
anyone think twice before throwing even a gum wrapper onto the streets instead of the trash can two
feet away. Throughout high school, more awareness was brought upon environmental issues than

Spring River Case Study
To fully analyze Spring Creek, the collected samples must be representative of the depth and width
of this creek. To make sure that the width of all the samples was represented, the boat moved side to
side of the entire channel of as samples of the water surface were collected. To get samples that are
representative of the depth, the geologists sampled the upper 0.2 to 2.5m of the river using a three–
meter long tube with a diameter of five centimeters. The shores of the Spring Creek were also
sampled in order to determine if there was any deposition of heavy metals along the shores (Alpers,
Taylor, Domagalski, 2000).
The EPA used data that was collected from the SCDD by the United States Bureau of Reclamation
(USBR) In the 1960s, the USBR dammed Spring Creek with the SCDD to prevent heavy metals
from dispersing throughout the Spring Creek water system. The installation of the dam allowed the
USBR to analyze the water collected from the SCDD for copper and zinc levels. From then on, the
USBR would determine the average daily discharge calculated from the gates of ... Show more

As a result, the nearby water systems became filled with pollution. The EPA has taken action to
ensure the reduction of the contaminant levels and to prevent the contamination from spreading
further into other water systems. They began to install several water treatment plants to clean the
water out. As the EPA tries to remediate the Iron Mountain Mine, they have been analyzing water
samples from the Spring Creek to determine if the levels have changed. Thanks to the efforts by the
EPA, the levels of contamination has reduced significantly by at least 80%. The percent reduction of
heavy metals continues to rise due to the efforts set by the EPA. Although the levels have declined,

Along Cabbage Tree Creek: Environmental Study
Along Cabbage Tree Creek, four different sites were examined by two year 11 Biology classes to
discuss how healthy the waterway is as an entire creek. The whole point of this study was to
evaluate what the water quality is and what effect it has on the biotic and abiotic factors of the creek.
The four different sites were Aspley High behind the oval, Linkfield Drive, Graham Road and
Collins Road where the students examined the water and tested the levels of dissolved oxygen, the
temperature, turbidity, salinity, pH, flow rate, the amount of phosphate, nitrate and chlorine to make
conclusions on the health of the creek as a whole. The Riparian width, habitat and the number of
fish were also recorded in order to have an idea of what fish and other organisms live in certain
places in the creek. The first place visited in the creek was the site behind Aspley State High School
and had the best habitat rating of 17 out of 24. This is because there wasn't the same amount of litter
as the other sites, the creek seemed to have a good flow rate and there was a good amount of
instream cover to cool down the creek. The second place in the creek that was visited was Linkfield

Water Pollution Is the Contamination of Water Bodies
Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies (e.g. lakes, rivers, oceans and groundwater).
Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water; and, in almost all cases
the effect is damaging not only to individual species and populations, but also to the natural
biological communities.
Water pollution occurs when pollutants are discharged directly or indirectly into water bodies
without adequate treatment to remove harmful compounds.

However where such water is not channeled and drains directly to ground it is a non–point source.
[edit] Groundwater pollution
See also: Hydrogeology
Interactions between groundwater and surface water are complex. Consequently, groundwater
pollution, sometimes referred to as groundwater contamination, is not as easily classified as surface
water pollution.[7] By its very nature, groundwater aquifers are susceptible to contamination from
sources that may not directly affect surface water bodies, and the distinction of point vs. non–point
source may be irrelevant. A spill or ongoing releases of chemical or radionuclide contaminants into
soil (located away from a surface water body) may not create point source or non–point source
pollution, but can contaminate the aquifer below, defined as a toxin plume. The movement of the
plume, a plume front, can be part of a Hydrological transport model or Groundwater model.
Analysis of groundwater contamination may focus on the soil characteristics and site geology,
hydrogeology, hydrology, and the nature of the contaminants.

The specific contaminants leading to pollution in water include a wide spectrum of chemicals,
pathogens, and physical or sensory changes such as elevated temperature and discoloration. While

Argumentative Essay On Kayak Fishing
Kayaks have been classic vessels for fishing, as opposed to using a big boat. Many people are
flocking to kayak fishing because of its many benefits. Kayaks for fishing range from two hundred
dollars to thirteen hundred dollars, much less than the cost of a boat (fishhound). Operating a boat
takes a toll on the angler and his gear and it comes with a lot to think about, and it is hard to handle.
Using a kayak instead of a boat allows access to non motorised water bodies, as well as height and
length limited water bodies. Most people use kayaks because they provide peace and quiet, and they
promote exercise benefits (Mac). Buying a kayak instead of a boat, and using artificial bait instead
of natural bait is the best option because of the benefits ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Anglers also prefer to use artificial bait this because they need to use much more equipment when
using natural bait. (The Dorling 250). The equipment needed when using natural bait includes
bobbers, hooks, line, swivels and weights. Searching for and storing for all of these items is time
consuming and very expensive. Another downside to natural bait fishing occurs when fishing with
live fish. When using this method, an angler would not always know in which direction the fish on
the end of the line is going to swim. Using a live fish as bait can be quite difficult because it is hard
to get a live fish to stay on a hook.when using artificial bait the only tackle you need is the lure. A
very popular method of artificial bait is crankbaits. Crankbaits are easy to use, inexpensive and they
are durable. Anglers prefer to use artificial bait over natural bait because natural bait lasts only a few
hours, but artificial baits can last for years. Another plus to using artificial bait is that the angler will
be able to cast into the water quickly. The natural bait fisherman will have to organise his tackle,
prepare his rod, and tie everything together. Artificial baits are useful for kids because most
crankbaits have an action. An action is when an angler has to move the rod a certain way for the lure
to work. Lures that are good for kids can just be casted out and reeled straight back in. Some lures
are made with one single barbless hook. The advantage to using a barbless hook is that once is on
the hook the hook is easy to remove. In the event that an angler has put hook through his skin a

Salt Marsh Ecosystems On Earth
Introduction
Salt marsh ecosystems are among the most productive ecosystems on earth and provide numerous
ecosystem services (Ghorai & Sen, 2015; Charles & Dukes, 2009; Drociak, 2005). These services
include biofiltration, gas regulation, carbon and nutrient retention, and physical protection of
coastlines from storm surges and coastal flooding (Drociak, 2005; Sweat, 2009; FWC, 2016). Salt
marshes act as nurseries and ensure habitat and resources for unique flora, fauna, and microbial
communities (Ghorai & Sen, 2015), including commercially and recreationally important species
such as horseshoe crabs, fish, and shellfish (FWC, 2016). Salt marsh plants also help trap nutrients,
pollutants, and sediments, which improves water quality offshore (FWC, 2016).
Many of the world's salt marsh habitats have also been lost over the last several centuries to filling,
draining, and diking (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008). New England has lost an
estimated one third of its salt marshes since 1777 (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008;
Bromberg and Bertness, 2005) as a result of diking, railroads and road construction, levee building
and other purposes (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008). While the diking and
impoundment of the salt marshes created more area for development, the ecological structure, as
well as the benefits and ecological services the salt marshes provided, were eliminated in the process
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008; Thelen, 2009). This

An Urban Body Of Water
An urban body of water is one that is located near an urban area, usually with high population and
industry. These water bodies are often times very polluted and mismanaged because a society
benefits by using it as their dumping grounds or local governments do not have the finances to
improve it. Many times there is a lack of awareness among a society that these acts of mass
pollution are even taking place. In this paper I will compare The Duwamish River in Seattle to Lake
Nicaragua in Nicaragua. It does not matter where an urban body of water is located in the world; if a

I found it interesting because its contribution to its local community is so large that I found it
upsetting that it was among the most polluted in the country. In my opinion, anything that important
to a local society deserves to be kept in good shape for others to use and for animals in the
environment to benefit from. Another reason I chose this river was because it's polluted to such a
high degree that I was curious to see what measure have or could be put in place to make it more

country of Nicaragua. It is the largest freshwater lake in Central America and is special because it is
home to rare freshwater sharks. Its one of the worlds 40 largest lakes and its roots are tectonic. Over
thirty different rivers flow into Lake Nicaragua and it is tideless with daily changes in sea level.
There are over 30 islands located in the lake, which are home to many fruits, animals and
inhabitants. The lake is home to many fisheries that export their fish to places around the world.
Unfortunately, the surrounding areas of the lake are experiencing a growth in population and trade

The Winter Of The West Coast
Water
West:
I was raised on the west coast, so for me, west was literally the direction of water, because that was
the direction we headed when we wanted to see the ocean. Even now, it makes sense to me to
connect west with water. The strongest storms come from the west through Oklahoma. Rain always
seems to come from the west. West is also the direction of the setting sun, and when at the ocean on
the west coast, at sunset, the sun looks like it is sinking into the water.
Fall:
Autumn is the time of year when the temperature starts to cool. Water doesn't always have to be
cool, but many ancients thought of water as a cool element. Most lakes, rivers, and oceans are very
cold in their natural states. Autumn is also the time of the year when plants begin to turn inward and
prepare for winter. Water is the element associated with the subconscious, so it makes sense to
associate fall with water.
Dusk:
Dusk, the moment of twilight, is when the sun sinks into the water on the west coast, so it makes
sense to associate it with this element. Also, in the evening, many people come home and rest from
the day. It is the time to relax and be ourselves, to turn inward. In essence, at dusk people do the
same things plants do in autumn, and because water is associated with the subconscious mind, this
connection makes sense.

The Effects Of Water On The Body Weight
Water is about 60% of the adult human body weight. The relative importance of water is readily
apparent through the role it plays in various systems of the body. The popular notion, therefore,
exists that one must drink eight 8–oz glasses of water, which amounts to about 2 L, per day.
Currently, the Institute of Medicine states that the total beverage intake for men should be about 13
cups or 3 L and for women 9 cups or 2.2 L ("Water: How Much..."). The right amount of water one
should drink each day ultimately depends on a number of factors, such as where one lives, the
amount of activity, and personal health. My average daily water intake is less than the recommended
amount of 2–3 L, which affects the physiological functions of my cardiovascular and renal systems.
A low water intake affects the healthy functioning of the cardiovascular system. The decrease in
effective circulating volume, or the extracellular fluid in the blood vessels that perfuse the tissues,
decreases end diastolic volume that is not compensated for by the end systolic volume, which
exhibits a smaller decline. As a result, the stroke volume decreases because the left ventricle does
not fill up as much with blood. The large reduction in end diastolic volume and stroke volume is
mainly a result of the decrease in venous return due to the reduced amount of fluid circulating in the
body (Stohr et al. 894). This leads to a reduction in arterial and atrial pressure, which decreases the

An Analysis Of ' So Much Water So Close At Home '
In Carver's short story, "So Much Water So Close to Home," three men go to Naches River for a
fishing trip and encounter a dead young woman in the river. Aware that the corpse is in the river,
they continue on with their fishing trip, not reporting it until they travel back home. Carver
illustrates the story through the eyes of Claire, the wife of the fisher. Carver depicts the differences
in male and female roles of a marriage and their psychological similarities, associated with why
there was a need to travel to further waters, when there is "So Much Water So Close to Home."
Ordinarily, man is the provider and woman is the nurturer in a marriage. This is contrasted by the
differences of Stuart and Claire's roles as husband and wife. Man's role in a home is to be a gatherer

The Dangers Of Water Pollution
Water is an essential part of our everyday lives. We use it various activities, including; watering our
yards, washing clothes dishes and cars, bathing ourselves and our pets, preparing food, and most
importantly drinking. Our bodies are approximately sixty percent water. In order to survive, we need
to drink plenty of water everyday to insure we do not get dehydrated. Without drinkable water, we
would be sentenced to inevitable death. However, despite this, water pollution is one of the most
common, and serious, ecological threats we face in today's world. It is important to be aware of the
causes, effects, and dangers of water pollution. It is important to be educated on how we can help
prevent water pollution as well. Water pollution is defined as the contamination of water bodies.
There are various causes that can lead to the body of water being polluted. The main causes are
poisonous chemicals, fertilisers, and sewage. Poisonous chemicals are typically produced by the
industries. When the industries release these chemicals, they let them run directly into the bodies of
water or they let them leak into the groundwater ("Substances Causing Pollution...", 2017). Different
industries produces different chemicals. These chemicals include, insecticides, heavy metals, oil,
and chlorine and detergents. Insecticides are sprayed onto crops to kill the insects that could
potentially eat the crops. When it rains, these insecticides are washed away into the streams and

Determining the Water Quality of a Body of Water Essay
Water quality is a complex term to evaluate. The health of a water ecosystem depends on so many
variables. These parameters are each intertwined and connected. For simplicity there are several
mainstream parameters that are used in conjunction with each other to determine the water s quality.
These include: alkalinity, ammonia content, carbon dioxide, chlorine, nitrates, dissolved oxygen,
phosphates, temperature, and turbidity. The most visible sign of poor water quality is reduced animal
populations. Almost all animals will suffer if pollutants are in the water supply. There are several
ways to lower pollution levels in water.

Pollution occurs when ammonia levels rise above .1mg/L. Ammonia concentrations may be
eliminated by reducing farm runoff. Often times, when there are many trees and rooted plants runoff
can be greatly reduced.
Carbon Dioxide is a universal problem. Recently the news has been parading the information about
global warming. Well, carbon dioxide is also a problem for water systems. All animals and many
bacteria use oxygen and release carbon dioxide. This includes underwater animals and bacteria.
Green plants, in turn, absorb the carbon dioxide and, by the process of photosynthesis, produce
oxygen. When carbon dioxide levels become high animals usually suffer detrimentally. A good way
to lower carbon dioxide levels is to increase the number of green vegetation in the water. This will
allow for the oxygen levels to increase and the carbon dioxide levels to decrease.
Chlorine is used all over the world. It remains one of the most effective means to disinfect water
supplies. The problem resides when too much chlorine enters a natural ecosystem. Chlorine hurts
animals, and in some cases people too. When chlorine combines with products in water it produces
tri halomethanes or THMs. These THMs in high concetrations can cause cancer in people. In other
words they are carcinogenic. An effective means to lower chlorine content is to monitor this at

these surface waters may be, just a little number are kept up and found in their normal condition
because of concentrated anthropogenic exercises, for example, urbanization and surface water
contamination, in this manner, making it an awesome natural issue on the planet everywhere (Zhao

bodies in view of the part they play in carting away and taking in point (local wastewater and
mechanical release) and non–point source (farming and urban spillover) contaminations (Carpenter

source, though surface spillover from urbanized and farming situations are to a great extent affected
by climatic conditions inside a watershed (Singh et al., 2004). Regular variety in precipitation

Ammonium is the form of nitrogen taken up most readily by phytoplankton because nitrate must
first be reduced to ammonia before it is assimilated as amino acids in organisms (Geoscience
Australia, 2013). The excessive level of certain nutrients in waterways is often linked to human
activities.
A comprehensive investigation on how nutrients in waterways were increasing, was undertaken by a
body of individual scientists and their findings were as follows;
– Run–off from agricultural areas;
– Storm water and wastewater;
– Turbidity and nutrient levels occur within Australia's river systems, generally coincide in
Australia's river systems. A large proportion of the suspended sediment in Australian rivers results
from vegetation removal, leading to gully and stream bank erosion and sheetwash. Phosphorus is
overwhelmingly associated with such particulate loads (The National Land and Water Resources
Audit, 2002).
– Dentrification is a major sink for inorganic nitrogen in estuaries. Nitrogen loss due to
denitrification can exceed 50% of the total nitrogen input, and is probably the main reason why
nitrogen can sometimes be the limiting nutrient in estuaries (Berelson, W.M., Heggie, D.,

Water And Its Effects On The Human Body
Water, otherwise known as H2O, is an odorless & tasteless liquid essential in life, that supplies
nutrients and allows species to continue to exist on this very Earth. It helps with functionality of the
human body by regulating temperature, brain energy, muscles, relieving headaches etc. In modern
times, 71 % of the Earth 's surface is covered with water while oceans hold over 96.5 % of all Earth
's water. It can be found just about anywhere from rivers and lakes to icecaps and glaciers, in the
ground, and even in humans and other animals. Nearly 57 to 60% of water is found in an adult body
while in infants 75 to 78% of water is found. We depend heavily on water for survival everyday. As
humans, we can survive only a month without food and only a week without water, which is why it's

size distribution for the production of silver nanoparticles was achieved by Iyer et al.[43] using the
grooved disc. The authors postulated that that the corrugated nature of the grooved disc promoted
shear induced micromixing of the thin film on the disc at higher rotational speed. The efficient
micromixing ensured that all the particles were exposed to the similar conditions to maintain a
narrow size distribution [43]. Similar enhancement effects of grooved surfaces have been reported
for styrene polymerisation in the SDR [9]. It has also been suggested in the literature that surface
textures have the potential to suppress liquid channelling or rivulet flow compared to a smooth
surface under identical conditions of liquid flowrate and liquid properties so that a higher wetted
area is achieved [44]. Rivulet flow as opposed to film flow would result in larger average film
thicknesses which may lead to detrimental performance, especially under strictly laminar flow
conditions (i.e. where any surface wave–induced turbulence is absent). Thus, the intensifying effects

Tropical Freshwater Fish Aquarium
How to manage a tropical freshwater fish aquarium.
A natural habitat for your aquarium fish using an L–system approach.
The system that I have developed is a weak S (sewer) and very strong, stable L (long–term natural
processes). I didn't do anything to make the S part of the system strong (which plants would have
liked), because the things that will help the S part were conflicting with the L part, which fish like;
overall, the well–being of the fish took priority over the plants. I would say that in nature the
equation would look like this: S + L + other letters denoting more sets of interactions which will not
be ever possible to recreate in a small, confined space due to the large amounts of air, water,

After 14 years of keeping fish, I have seen so much suffering and miserable deaths. It makes me
wonder why I went through it all. The L–system was in use only for the last two and a half years,
and the version of the very stable and strong L you will be using was in use for only 3 months before
I ended fishkeeping. So I have only really enjoyed having the fish for 3 months out of 14 years of
misery, and it all started one day by walking into a pet store to see the parrots and other birds. When
I saw there was a huge wall of fish tanks on one side, I thought, "Why not get some fish? After all
they don't make any noise, so I can keep them in my rented apartment." I honestly thought that
human beings had discovered how to keep fish happy; after all, there were all kinds of equipment

I have guessed that I would get myself into such an unfortunate experience? I have had other pets,

Because of this, Rayner & Creese suggest removing native fish, draining when possible, and
clearing vegetation, to ensure maximum effectiveness. They also suggest ensuring that there is
sufficient poison such that the final amount in the water is enough to kill the fish [1].
The diminishing amounts of poison in the local waterway, by the river flowing, is something that
must be carefully considered. The article is promising in that it suggests that the poison flowing
down river will be in a low enough concentration so as to not cause much harm. This also suggests
that a controlled, continuous release will need to occur to maintain a lethal amount of poison on the
targeted portion of the river.

Water Pollution And Its Impacts On Water Body
1.1 Back Ground
Among all natural resource, water is one of the most important to sustain the living planet, earth and
every form of life on its face, including human being. It is an integral part of human's activities
including domestic, agriculture, transport, industry, power generation and recreation. Moreover, the
normal uses of human body depends entirely on adequate quantity and quality of water. But pure
water does not exist by default in its quality due to natural interaction among the earth's subsystems,
especially anthropogenic activity around urban area .
Water pollution is the state of change in the natural physical, chemical, biological, bacteriological
and radiological properties of water that causes in an impairment of its inherent (Susan & Joy 1998)
.Many investigation were carried out by many researchers and organization over past year to assess
the source of pollution and its impacts on water body. Among the source of pollution the major
pollution from Nonpoint source (NPS) was urban runoff and it has been established as a major cause
of receiving water degradation ( VASSILIOS A. TSIHRINTZIS and RIZWAN TSIHRINTZIS ,

Speech On Environmental Pollution
Pollution is a big problem in this day and age. Some pollution comes from burning gas to fuel our
cars or some other forms of pollution comes from volcanoes. Carbon dioxide is the main pollutant
warming the earth. But if we start producing less carbon dioxide then the earth will heat up even
more. I know it's crazy right. Carbon dioxide can be produced by cars, planes, power plants, and
many more activities that involve the burning of gas. Did you know that within the past 150 years
we humans have produced the highest level of sulfur dioxide. Yes it's true. When volcanoes erupt
they produce sulfur dioxide which causes pollution but in this world today humans produce the most
amount of sulfur dioxide. You might be asking yourself what are other humans doing to help prevent
pollution? Well, some industrialized countries are trying to help prevent pollution a little bit more.
But we can help them with that by driving/flying less or recycling more. So let's throw our best
efforts in to help save our atmosphere. The most polluted city in the world is Dehli, New York.

Homeostasis: The Concentration Of Water In The Body
Homeostasis is the process through which the concentration of water in the body is regulated.
Besides oxygen, water is probably the most necessary substance for human life–––yet too much, or
too little can be fatal. Both the nervous and endocrine systems are responsible for regulating the
body's water supplies, with the nervous system carrying the messages to and from the brain and
other organs, and the endocrine system producing the hormones and secretions that carry these
stimulate the processes that control the body's water balance. The main hormone involved in the
process of water regulation is antidiuretic hormone (ADH). The level of water in the blood is
monitored constantly by neurons known as osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus: when the water
level begins to drop, the process of water conservation begins. The hypothalamus produces a
precursor hormone that signals to the pituitary gland that the water level in the blood is decreasing.
Upon detecting this hormone, the pituitary gland begins secreting ADH into the bloodstream. The

stream of the Mattawan Consolidated Schools area. The purpose of this trip was to conduct a stream
study to determine the health, conditions, and pollution levels of this small body of water. A
multitude of factors came into play when making a judgement on the stream's health, and making
sure to take all of these essential points was crucial to the study. A variety of thorough experiments
were conducted to help make this overlying conclusion, as many students adopted many roles in the
study. Students used a physical survey form, water test data sheet, and taxa recording sheet to record
their findings. Teamwork was essential in making sure all of this information could be found
accurately and efficiently. The combination of all of the final results allowed the class to make a
judgement of the stream's state. For the convenience of the students, a packet for recording the
stream's content and results was provided. On the first and second page, tables for seeing the taxa
types of aquatic macroinvertebrates found were laid out, and students were to check the boxes with
the names of the taxa they found in this area. Students entered the stream with a large water strain,
and put dirt from the stream and carried it out of the stream to be examined. After observing several

Fishing
Everyone loves spending their time at the lake on a good summer evening with friends and family,
whether they're having a camp fire and just circling it, cracking jokes, or fishing. People fish for a
various of reasons, some may eat the fish (hey, basically free food!), just simply toss the fish back
into the body of water which they got it from, or even just fish for the sake of it, and let the fishes
die because of them being forgotten about. Whatever you're reasoning for fishing is, there is always
going to be a bad side to it, even if your intentions are not to do so. There are number of reasons
why people fish, reasons such as enjoying the feeling of catching huge fish, enjoying the scenery of
the sunset, getting some relax time to themselves, getting to hang out with friends, competing with
friends about who gets more fish or the bigger fish, and for survival (if you already have your
license, and need something for dinner, there you are !). However, No one has really has put thought
into how fishing may affect the environment of that body of water. Let's talk about what really goes
on in ponds/lakes. Most large bodies of water here in Kansas consist of largemouth bass, blue gill,
and channel catfish. These fishes all spawn when the water gets warm, so during spring or early
summer, for the bass; 60–70 degrees, and for the catfish. 70–75 degrees. When these eggs are laid,
the father fish protects the eggs and makes sure nothing happens to them. Lets say someone decides
to go fishing at the time the father is protecting the eggs, the male fish will see the hook as a threat
to the eggs and attack it. There you go, you got a catch! But do you really know what that means?
Because you have caught the male fish, who's there to protect the eggs? The amount of eggs laid by
these types of fish can be up to 500. There's a specific reason why it's the male protecting the egg
and not the woman, the male is stronger and can protect the eggs from being eaten and can keep
them warm better. Any who, because you caught the male protector, the eggs will all die because
they will be exposed to the cold lake. That's 501 fish you costs the pond although you only

Negative Effects Of Eutrophication
Abstract: In order to better understand cultural eutrophication a lab was performed on aquatic
systems and the concentration of nutrients in those systems. The lab was analyzed once a week for a
total time of two weeks. After the two weeks, a trend (treatments with higher concentrations of
fertilizer had a higher cell count and lower pH) was discovered and noted the results.
Introduction:
Eutrophication is a natural process that lakes and certain bodies of water undergo. Eutrophication
happens by having a significant level of biodegradable waste in a body of water. The nutrients in the
water promote growth of primary producers which has a positive impact on consumers. These
nutrients usually cause bodies of water to be cloudy, turbid, have a high number of primary
producers, and promote the excessive growth of algae (Koechli, 2015). This then causes the body of
water to reduce its dissolved oxygen level, and dead biomass to accumulate. Although it is a natural
process, humans can affect these bodies of water by inserting a surplus of nutrients. This process is
called cultural eutrophication, which is considered a form of water pollution (Koechli, 2015). This
pollution is often caused by fertilizer run–off and much more. It causes the overgrowth of aquatic
plants. These plants quickly become crowded and have to compete for space and sunlight. Because
of this, aquatic life is threatened due to the low dissolved oxygen, and blocked sunlight. Cultural

The Patterns Of Biological Diversity Throughout Rivers And...
The patterns of biological diversity in rivers and streams among taxa vary on a spatial and temporal
scale (Ligeiro et al. 2010; McGarvey and Terra 2015). Variations in stream ecology can be
contributed to water quality, habitat, and history of disturbance (Lingeiro et al. 2010). Creeks and
streams feed into rivers and other larger bodies of water, which provide food, water, and other
commercial and recreational services as well as a home to an array of plants and animals which rely
on clean water. The health of these smaller bodies of water can act as indicators for the health of the
larger watershed. Benthic macroinvertebrates have been used to assess the health of aquatic
environments. Quality analysis involves looking at benthic species composition and organization
within the stream (Resh and Unzicke 1975). Different macroinvertebrates have differing sensitivities
to pollutant, with some being more susceptible to environmental toxins than others (Metcalfe 1989).
Such methods group macroinvertebrates in regards to their tolerance to pollution. The EPT Index
looks at Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera (mayflies, stoneflies, and caddisflies,
respectively) as indicators of aquatic community health. The idea behind the EPT Index is that
healthier streams have a greater richness of species as many species of macroinvertebrates are
intolerant of pollutions and thus will not be found in low quality bodies of water (Lenat 1988).

The Importance Of Water In The Human Body
The human body is composed of approximately 60–70% of the WATER. The human brain is made
up of 95% water, blood is 82% and lungs 90%. Nearly every aspect of human body's function calls
for the fluid. WATER makes up much of the medium that helps our cells communicate with each
other. Water is a necessary part of life. Vital to your health to drink a certain amount of water.
Drinking more water every day will gain you tremendous health benefits. So, there are three
important aspects that I'm going to be talking about, these are Functions of water in the body, Health
benefits of drinking water and How Much Water Do You Need
First. Functions of water in the body. Your body uses water in all its cells, organs, and tissues to help
regulate its temperature and maintain other bodily functions. Because your body loses water through
breathing, sweating, and digestion, it's important to rehydrate by drinking fluids and eating foods
that contain water. Water does more than just quench your thirst and regulate your body's
temperature; it also keeps the tissues in your body moist. You know how it feels when your eyes,
nose, or mouth gets dry? Keeping your body hydrated helps it retain optimum levels of moisture in
these sensitive areas, as well as in the blood, bones, and the brain. In addition, water helps protect

the problem daily, often without realizing it. Water pollution in Florida is reducing pure water
sources at a drastic rate, destroying natural beauty, and severely impacting the survival of local
wildlife. Human actions are a major contribution to this issue, therefore citizen awareness is the
highest workable solution to diminish the threat and improve the degradation of our waterways.
Florida cities near major waterways should establish annual community events to raise awareness
and positively impact this problem.
It is no secret that Florida water conditions are deteriorating, but what caused the degradation?
There are five state districts that have dedicated missions to figuring out exactly what went wrong
and preventing further degradation. In addition, these Water Management Districts are charged with

your reader why you think the river means what you've claimed it means.

moves in a continuous stream. Almost replicating life and how it flows in different directions and
paths until it eventually goes back to where it once was. A river has no start or end and so is life.

An Animal 's Body Water
Every dog and cat, no matter their age, has certain nutrients that are necessary to ensure they live a
healthy life. It is important for pet owners to be aware of these requirements, so they can be sure the
food they choose to feed their animal meets these demands. The six essential nutrients that every
animal needs for their body to function include the following: carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins,
minerals, and water. The most important of these nutrients is water. Without adequate water an
animal will quickly die, and "a loss of only 10% of an animal's body water can result in death"
(Case, Daristotle, Hayek, Raasch, 2011, 9). Water has several different important functions that it
plays a role in. For example, water helps an animal's body with digestion and absorption. In
addition, water helps an animal's body with temperature regulation and the elimination of waste
products (Nutritional Requirements and Related Diseases of Small Animals n.d.). When considering
how much water an animal will need there are several factors an owner will need to consider. For
instance, if an animal's health status and the type of food they eat can contribute to how much water
they will need each day. According to the merckvetmanual, a good guideline for owners to follow is
to give an animal around 55ml of water for each kg of body weight. (Nutritional Requirements and

The Impact Of River Macroinvertebrates On The Chemical...
Literature Review The main purpose of this literature review is to collate information on how river
macroinvertebrates are collected and how the concentrations of phosphorus, nitrogen, ammonia or
BOD in the water relate to the families of macroinvertebrates present. Different methods have been
used to help collect and identify macroinvertebrates and monitor pollution levels. This review
mainly focuses on the kick sampling technique for collecting macroinvertebrates. It then describes
the methods that are used to collect the levels of ammonia, phosphorus, BOD and nitrogen. Foy et al
(2001) wished to access the effectiveness of regulatory controls on farm pollution using chemical
and biological indices of water quality and pollution statistics. The water quality was tested in 42
streams in the Colebrooke and Upper Bann catchments in Northern Ireland during 1990–1998. This
was a large timescale therefore more results were collaborated. The method used to collect the
samples of invertebrates was kick sampling, these samples were then taken back to the laboratory to
identify them. Using the BMWP scoring system a score was then given to the macroinvertebrates,
relating to how organic pollution had affected them, with 1 being tolerant and 10 being highly
sensitive. To know the pollution statistics there was recorded incidents on farm pollution assessed
between 1987 and 1997, this was from a relational farm pollution database. The measurements that

The Water Body Of Water

  • 1. The Water Body Of Water An oligotrophic body of water has a low nutrient level, which allows for more light penetration. It has high dissolved oxygen rates, deep waters and low algal growth. The bottom of the water bodies (lakes), are made of rock, gravel, or sand. The oligotrophic water bodies are home to smallmouth bass, lake trout, pike, sturgeon and whitefish. Eutrophic bodies of water have higher nutrient levels, which causes poor light penetration. There is low dissolved oxygen and shallow water. This all causes higher algal growth. The bottom of the lakes are made of silt, sand or clay. Carp, bullheads or catfish can be found in the lakes. Eutrophication is a serious concern for lakes as it can turn an oligotrophic body of water into a eutrophic body of water, which is dangerous to the ecological diversity. 2. Most natural transistions from an oligotrophic water body to an eutrophic water body will happen over time, through, sediment erosion, leaf litter, or dying aquatic vegetation and other organisms. As well, some anaerobic microbes become incapable of performing their tasks, causing a lack of proper waster digestion and water purifications, this builds up algae which slowly leads to the water body becoming an Eutrophic lake. Humans of course tend to speed–up these sorts of problems. For more point source pollution there are the obvious actual pollution, of sewage, garbage, chemicals or otherwise that we empty off into lakes. However, even atmospheric pollution can lead to lakes ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 3. The Battle Of The Creek Smog is suffocating the clouds, and leaving it grey. The surrounding sounds of screeching and machines sputtering to the command of their owners interferes with the soft whispering of the creek itself. Everyday, every hour, the creek is poisoned. The monsters release their poison from their chambers and dispose of it into life. Past a certain point, the creek is unable to breathe, and instead of whispers, you hear gasps. It's dead. Over the generations, especially in this day and age, ecological problems have become top priority whether it's to presidential debates or the uprising of the environmentalists who stayed quiet for far too long. It doesn't have to be a large national park, but observing a not–so–well–known creek like Newtown Creek, represents the sludge and poison industrialism and the human race itself has force–fed nature. Seeing a desolated creek will make anyone think twice before throwing even a gum wrapper onto the streets instead of the trash can two feet away. Throughout high school, more awareness was brought upon environmental issues than just the happy history and science behind the World. I knew a limited amount, which was historical pollutions such as heavy dumping of chemicals into water sources that have to date tainted them and killed them off or when it came to the mass deforestation for more industrial sites and how it was impacting animals, but us in general.

To make sure that the width of all the samples was represented, the boat moved side to side of the entire channel of as samples of the water surface were collected. To get samples that are representative of the depth, the geologists sampled the upper 0.2 to 2.5m of the river using a three– meter long tube with a diameter of five centimeters. The shores of the Spring Creek were also sampled in order to determine if there was any deposition of heavy metals along the shores (Alpers, Taylor, Domagalski, 2000). The EPA used data that was collected from the SCDD by the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) In the 1960s, the USBR dammed Spring Creek with the SCDD to prevent heavy metals from dispersing throughout the Spring Creek water system. The installation of the dam allowed the USBR to analyze the water collected from the SCDD for copper and zinc levels. From then on, the USBR would determine the average daily discharge calculated from the gates of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... As a result, the nearby water systems became filled with pollution. The EPA has taken action to ensure the reduction of the contaminant levels and to prevent the contamination from spreading further into other water systems. They began to install several water treatment plants to clean the water out. As the EPA tries to remediate the Iron Mountain Mine, they have been analyzing water samples from the Spring Creek to determine if the levels have changed. Thanks to the efforts by the EPA, the levels of contamination has reduced significantly by at least 80%. The percent reduction of heavy metals continues to rise due to the efforts set by the EPA. Although the levels have declined, there still needs to be continued efforts to ensure that the Iron Mountain Mine no longer pollutes nearby the water ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Along Cabbage Tree Creek: Environmental Study Along Cabbage Tree Creek, four different sites were examined by two year 11 Biology classes to discuss how healthy the waterway is as an entire creek. The whole point of this study was to evaluate what the water quality is and what effect it has on the biotic and abiotic factors of the creek. The four different sites were Aspley High behind the oval, Linkfield Drive, Graham Road and Collins Road where the students examined the water and tested the levels of dissolved oxygen, the temperature, turbidity, salinity, pH, flow rate, the amount of phosphate, nitrate and chlorine to make conclusions on the health of the creek as a whole. The Riparian width, habitat and the number of fish were also recorded in order to have an idea of what fish and other organisms live in certain places in the creek. The first place visited in the creek was the site behind Aspley State High School and had the best habitat rating of 17 out of 24. This is because there wasn't the same amount of litter as the other sites, the creek seemed to have a good flow rate and there was a good amount of instream cover to cool down the creek. The second place in the creek that was visited was Linkfield Drive and out of all four places was deemed to be the unhealthiest with a habitat rating of 11.5. ...

  • 9. Water Pollution Is the Contamination of Water Bodies Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies (e.g. lakes, rivers, oceans and groundwater). Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water; and, in almost all cases the effect is damaging not only to individual species and populations, but also to the natural biological communities. Water pollution occurs when pollutants are discharged directly or indirectly into water bodies without adequate treatment to remove harmful compounds. Contents [hide] 1 Introduction 2 Water pollution categories o 2.1 Point source pollution o 2.2 Non–point source pollution 3 Groundwater pollution 4 Causes of water pollution o 4.1 Pathogens o 4.2 Chemical and other contaminants o 4.3 Thermal pollution 5 Transport ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... However where such water is not channeled and drains directly to ground it is a non–point source. [edit] Groundwater pollution See also: Hydrogeology Interactions between groundwater and surface water are complex. Consequently, groundwater pollution, sometimes referred to as groundwater contamination, is not as easily classified as surface water pollution.[7] By its very nature, groundwater aquifers are susceptible to contamination from sources that may not directly affect surface water bodies, and the distinction of point vs. non–point source may be irrelevant. A spill or ongoing releases of chemical or radionuclide contaminants into soil (located away from a surface water body) may not create point source or non–point source pollution, but can contaminate the aquifer below, defined as a toxin plume. The movement of the plume, a plume front, can be part of a Hydrological transport model or Groundwater model. Analysis of groundwater contamination may focus on the soil characteristics and site geology, hydrogeology, hydrology, and the nature of the contaminants. [edit] Causes of water pollution The specific contaminants leading to pollution in water include a wide spectrum of chemicals, pathogens, and physical or sensory changes such as elevated temperature and discoloration.

  • 11. Argumentative Essay On Kayak Fishing Kayaks have been classic vessels for fishing, as opposed to using a big boat. Many people are flocking to kayak fishing because of its many benefits. Kayaks for fishing range from two hundred dollars to thirteen hundred dollars, much less than the cost of a boat (fishhound). Operating a boat takes a toll on the angler and his gear and it comes with a lot to think about, and it is hard to handle. Using a kayak instead of a boat allows access to non motorised water bodies, as well as height and length limited water bodies. Most people use kayaks because they provide peace and quiet, and they promote exercise benefits (Mac). Buying a kayak instead of a boat, and using artificial bait instead of natural bait is the best option because of the benefits ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Anglers also prefer to use artificial bait this because they need to use much more equipment when using natural bait. (The Dorling 250). The equipment needed when using natural bait includes bobbers, hooks, line, swivels and weights. Searching for and storing for all of these items is time consuming and very expensive. Another downside to natural bait fishing occurs when fishing with live fish. When using this method, an angler would not always know in which direction the fish on the end of the line is going to swim. Using a live fish as bait can be quite difficult because it is hard to get a live fish to stay on a hook.when using artificial bait the only tackle you need is the lure. A very popular method of artificial bait is crankbaits. Crankbaits are easy to use, inexpensive and they are durable. Anglers prefer to use artificial bait over natural bait because natural bait lasts only a few hours, but artificial baits can last for years. Another plus to using artificial bait is that the angler will be able to cast into the water quickly. The natural bait fisherman will have to organise his tackle, prepare his rod, and tie everything together. Artificial baits are useful for kids because most crankbaits have an action. An action is when an angler has to move the rod a certain way for the lure to work. Lures that are good for kids can just be casted out and reeled straight back in. Some lures are made with one single barbless hook. The advantage to using a barbless hook is that once is on the hook the hook is easy to remove. In the event that an angler has put hook through his skin a barbless hook is eazy to take ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The two bodies of water that were choose as samples where, the Wall pond and the HGTC pond. Each group had to test the water for Temperature, Dissolved Oxygen, Nitrate, Phosphate, pH, and Turbidity. Only two people where chosen to test the waters for Coliform bacteria. "Coliform bacteria are not pathogenic (disease causing) organisms, and are only mildly infectious. For this reason these bacteria are relatively safe to work with in the laboratory".

Salt Marsh Ecosystems On Earth Introduction Salt marsh ecosystems are among the most productive ecosystems on earth and provide numerous ecosystem services (Ghorai & Sen, 2015; Charles & Dukes, 2009; Drociak, 2005). These services include biofiltration, gas regulation, carbon and nutrient retention, and physical protection of coastlines from storm surges and coastal flooding (Drociak, 2005; Sweat, 2009; FWC, 2016). Salt marshes act as nurseries and ensure habitat and resources for unique flora, fauna, and microbial communities (Ghorai & Sen, 2015), including commercially and recreationally important species such as horseshoe crabs, fish, and shellfish (FWC, 2016). Salt marsh plants also help trap nutrients, pollutants, and sediments, which improves water quality offshore (FWC, 2016). Many of the world's salt marsh habitats have also been lost over the last several centuries to filling, draining, and diking (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008). New England has lost an estimated one third of its salt marshes since 1777 (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008; Bromberg and Bertness, 2005) as a result of diking, railroads and road construction, levee building and other purposes (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008). While the diking and impoundment of the salt marshes created more area for development, the ecological structure, as well as the benefits and ecological services the salt marshes provided, were eliminated in the process (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, 2008; Thelen, 2009).

These water bodies are often times very polluted and mismanaged because a society benefits by using it as their dumping grounds or local governments do not have the finances to improve it. Many times there is a lack of awareness among a society that these acts of mass pollution are even taking place. In this paper I will compare The Duwamish River in Seattle to Lake Nicaragua in Nicaragua.

There are over 30 islands located in the lake, which are home to many fruits, animals and inhabitants. The lake is home to many fisheries that export their fish to places around the world. Unfortunately, the surrounding areas of the lake are experiencing a growth in population and trade so the lake is being affected by water pollution (LakeNet p. 1).

The Winter Of The West Coast Water West: I was raised on the west coast, so for me, west was literally the direction of water, because that was the direction we headed when we wanted to see the ocean. Even now, it makes sense to me to connect west with water. The strongest storms come from the west through Oklahoma. Rain always seems to come from the west. West is also the direction of the setting sun, and when at the ocean on the west coast, at sunset, the sun looks like it is sinking into the water. Fall: Autumn is the time of year when the temperature starts to cool. Water doesn't always have to be cool, but many ancients thought of water as a cool element. Most lakes, rivers, and oceans are very cold in their natural states. Autumn is also the time of the year when plants begin to turn inward and prepare for winter. Water is the element associated with the subconscious, so it makes sense to associate fall with water. Dusk: Dusk, the moment of twilight, is when the sun sinks into the water on the west coast, so it makes sense to associate it with this element. Also, in the evening, many people come home and rest from the day. It is the time to relax and be ourselves, to turn inward. In essence, at dusk people do the same things plants do in autumn, and because water is associated with the subconscious mind, this connection makes sense.

  • 23. The Effects Of Water On The Body Weight Water is about 60% of the adult human body weight. The relative importance of water is readily apparent through the role it plays in various systems of the body. The popular notion, therefore, exists that one must drink eight 8–oz glasses of water, which amounts to about 2 L, per day. Currently, the Institute of Medicine states that the total beverage intake for men should be about 13 cups or 3 L and for women 9 cups or 2.2 L ("Water: How Much..."). The right amount of water one should drink each day ultimately depends on a number of factors, such as where one lives, the amount of activity, and personal health. My average daily water intake is less than the recommended amount of 2–3 L, which affects the physiological functions of my cardiovascular and renal systems. A low water intake affects the healthy functioning of the cardiovascular system. The decrease in effective circulating volume, or the extracellular fluid in the blood vessels that perfuse the tissues, decreases end diastolic volume that is not compensated for by the end systolic volume, which exhibits a smaller decline. As a result, the stroke volume decreases because the left ventricle does not fill up as much with blood. The large reduction in end diastolic volume and stroke volume is mainly a result of the decrease in venous return due to the reduced amount of fluid circulating in the body (Stohr et al. 894). This leads to a reduction in arterial and atrial pressure, which decreases the stretch of the blood ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

An Analysis Of ' So Much Water So Close At Home ' In Carver's short story, "So Much Water So Close to Home," three men go to Naches River for a fishing trip and encounter a dead young woman in the river. Aware that the corpse is in the river, they continue on with their fishing trip, not reporting it until they travel back home. Carver illustrates the story through the eyes of Claire, the wife of the fisher. Carver depicts the differences in male and female roles of a marriage and their psychological similarities, associated with why there was a need to travel to further waters, when there is "So Much Water So Close to Home." Ordinarily, man is the provider and woman is the nurturer in a marriage. This is contrasted by the differences of Stuart and Claire's roles as husband and wife. Man's role in a home is to be a gatherer of not only physical labors but of answers. Claire is constantly seeking answers as to why her husband waited so long to report the corpse, but he contains no answers for her as he says "you're going to get me riled," (76) making her findings of the truth qualities as the protector of the household. Their minds as husband and wife functioned separately and in no way correlated to be a whole as Claire became more consumed by the idea of the dead child.

  • 27. The Dangers Of Water Pollution Water is an essential part of our everyday lives. We use it various activities, including; watering our yards, washing clothes dishes and cars, bathing ourselves and our pets, preparing food, and most importantly drinking. Our bodies are approximately sixty percent water. In order to survive, we need to drink plenty of water everyday to insure we do not get dehydrated. Without drinkable water, we would be sentenced to inevitable death. However, despite this, water pollution is one of the most common, and serious, ecological threats we face in today's world. It is important to be aware of the causes, effects, and dangers of water pollution. It is important to be educated on how we can help prevent water pollution as well. Water pollution is defined as the contamination of water bodies. There are various causes that can lead to the body of water being polluted. The main causes are poisonous chemicals, fertilisers, and sewage. Poisonous chemicals are typically produced by the industries. When the industries release these chemicals, they let them run directly into the bodies of water or they let them leak into the groundwater ("Substances Causing Pollution...", 2017). Different industries produces different chemicals. These chemicals include, insecticides, heavy metals, oil, and chlorine and detergents. Insecticides are sprayed onto crops to kill the insects that could potentially eat the crops. When it rains, these insecticides are washed away into the streams and groundwater ...

These include: alkalinity, ammonia content, carbon dioxide, chlorine, nitrates, dissolved oxygen, phosphates, temperature, and turbidity. The most visible sign of poor water quality is reduced animal populations. Almost all animals will suffer if pollutants are in the water supply. There are several ways to lower pollution levels in water. Alkalinity is not a measure of pollution. It is a total measure of the substances in water that have ...

Often times, when there are many trees and rooted plants runoff can be greatly reduced. Carbon Dioxide is a universal problem. Recently the news has been parading the information about global warming. Well, carbon dioxide is also a problem for water systems. All animals and many bacteria use oxygen and release carbon dioxide. This includes underwater animals and bacteria. Green plants, in turn, absorb the carbon dioxide and, by the process of photosynthesis, produce oxygen. When carbon dioxide levels become high animals usually suffer detrimentally. A good way to lower carbon dioxide levels is to increase the number of green vegetation in the water. This will allow for the oxygen levels to increase and the carbon dioxide levels to decrease. Chlorine is used all over the world. It remains one of the most effective means to disinfect water supplies. The problem resides when too much chlorine enters a natural ecosystem. Chlorine hurts animals, and in some cases people too. When chlorine combines with products in water it produces tri halomethanes or THMs. These THMs in high concetrations can cause cancer in people. In other words they are carcinogenic. An effective means to lower chlorine content is to monitor this at industrial and water supply plants.

As critical as these surface waters may be, just a little number are kept up and found in their normal condition because of concentrated anthropogenic exercises, for example, urbanization and surface water contamination, in this manner, making it an awesome natural issue on the planet everywhere (Zhao et al., 2011).

Wastewater release from local and mechanical situations makes up a steady dirtying source, though surface spillover from urbanized and farming situations are to a great extent affected by climatic conditions inside a watershed (Singh et al., 2004). Regular variety in precipitation (downpour) and its related surface overflow stream strongly affect surface water release and, in this manner, on the centralization of toxins in waterways, streams and lakes (Booth, 1991, Vega et al., 1998).

Ammonium is the form of nitrogen taken up most readily by phytoplankton because nitrate must first be reduced to ammonia before it is assimilated as amino acids in organisms (Geoscience Australia, 2013). The excessive level of certain nutrients in waterways is often linked to human activities. A comprehensive investigation on how nutrients in waterways were increasing, was undertaken by a body of individual scientists and their findings were as follows; – Run–off from agricultural areas; – Storm water and wastewater; – Turbidity and nutrient levels occur within Australia's river systems, generally coincide in Australia's river systems. A large proportion of the suspended sediment in Australian rivers results from vegetation removal, leading to gully and stream bank erosion and sheetwash. Phosphorus is overwhelmingly associated with such particulate loads (The National Land and Water Resources Audit, 2002). – Dentrification is a major sink for inorganic nitrogen in estuaries. Nitrogen loss due to denitrification can exceed 50% of the total nitrogen input, and is probably the main reason why nitrogen can sometimes be the limiting nutrient in estuaries (Berelson, W.M., Heggie, D., Longmore, A., Kilgore, T., Nickolson, G., Skyring, G. 1998). – Water column phosphorus concentrations have also been shown to increase under anoxic conditions (Webb, K.L. and D'Elia, C.F. 1980).

It helps with functionality of the human body by regulating temperature, brain energy, muscles, relieving headaches etc. In modern times, 71 % of the Earth 's surface is covered with water while oceans hold over 96.5 % of all Earth 's water. It can be found just about anywhere from rivers and lakes to icecaps and glaciers, in the ground, and even in humans and other animals. Nearly 57 to 60% of water is found in an adult body while in infants 75 to 78% of water is found. We depend heavily on water for survival everyday. As humans, we can survive only a month without food and only a week without water, which is why it's crucial that we maintain proper filtrations and purifications of our water systems nationwide.

The effect of disc texture on particle characteristics is depicted in Figure 7 and Figure 8. It can be seen that using the grooved disc surface results in smaller particle size and narrower particle size distribution as compared to smooth disc surface. A narrow particle size distribution for the production of silver nanoparticles was achieved by Iyer et al.[43] using the grooved disc. The authors postulated that that the corrugated nature of the grooved disc promoted shear induced micromixing of the thin film on the disc at higher rotational speed. The efficient micromixing ensured that all the particles were exposed to the similar conditions to maintain a narrow size distribution [43]. Similar enhancement effects of grooved surfaces have been reported for styrene polymerisation in the SDR [9]. It has also been suggested in the literature that surface textures have the potential to suppress liquid channelling or rivulet flow compared to a smooth surface under identical conditions of liquid flowrate and liquid properties so that a higher wetted area is achieved [44]. Rivulet flow as opposed to film flow would result in larger average film thicknesses which may lead to detrimental performance, especially under strictly laminar flow conditions (i.e. where any surface wave–induced turbulence is absent).

Carbon dioxide is the main pollutant warming the earth. But if we start producing less carbon dioxide then the earth will heat up even more. I know it's crazy right. Carbon dioxide can be produced by cars, planes, power plants, and many more activities that involve the burning of gas. Did you know that within the past 150 years we humans have produced the highest level of sulfur dioxide. Yes it's true. When volcanoes erupt they produce sulfur dioxide which causes pollution but in this world today humans produce the most amount of sulfur dioxide.

Besides oxygen, water is probably the most necessary substance for human life–––yet too much, or too little can be fatal. Both the nervous and endocrine systems are responsible for regulating the body's water supplies, with the nervous system carrying the messages to and from the brain and other organs, and the endocrine system producing the hormones and secretions that carry these stimulate the processes that control the body's water balance. The main hormone involved in the process of water regulation is antidiuretic hormone (ADH). The level of water in the blood is monitored constantly by neurons known as osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus: when the water level begins to drop, the process of water conservation begins.

Students Of Mattawan 's Ap Environmental Class On October 6th 2015, the students of Mattawan's AP Environmental class took a trip to the local stream of the Mattawan Consolidated Schools area. The purpose of this trip was to conduct a stream study to determine the health, conditions, and pollution levels of this small body of water. A multitude of factors came into play when making a judgement on the stream's health, and making sure to take all of these essential points was crucial to the study. A variety of thorough experiments were conducted to help make this overlying conclusion, as many students adopted many roles in the study. Students used a physical survey form, water test data sheet, and taxa recording sheet to record their findings. Teamwork was essential in making sure all of this information could be found accurately and efficiently. The combination of all of the final results allowed the class to make a judgement of the stream's state. For the convenience of the students, a packet for recording the stream's content and results was provided. On the first and second page, tables for seeing the taxa types of aquatic macroinvertebrates found were laid out, and students were to check the boxes with the names of the taxa they found in this area. Students entered the stream with a large water strain, and put dirt from the stream and carried it out of the stream to be examined. After observing several catches from the stream, the group one taxa findings included Stonefly nymph, Mayfly nymph, and Dobson fly nymph. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Descriptive Essay On Fishing Lilia Benitez Mr. Young Zoology 7 December 2017 Fishing Everyone loves spending their time at the lake on a good summer evening with friends and family, whether they're having a camp fire and just circling it, cracking jokes, or fishing. People fish for a various of reasons, some may eat the fish (hey, basically free food!), just simply toss the fish back into the body of water which they got it from, or even just fish for the sake of it, and let the fishes die because of them being forgotten about. Whatever you're reasoning for fishing is, there is always going to be a bad side to it, even if your intentions are not to do so. There are number of reasons why people fish, reasons such as enjoying the feeling of catching huge fish, enjoying the scenery of the sunset, getting some relax time to themselves, getting to hang out with friends, competing with friends about who gets more fish or the bigger fish, and for survival (if you already have your license, and need something for dinner, there you are !). However, No one has really has put thought into how fishing may affect the environment of that body of water. Let's talk about what really goes on in ponds/lakes. Most large bodies of water here in Kansas consist of largemouth bass, blue gill, and channel catfish. These fishes all spawn when the water gets warm, so during spring or early summer, for the bass; 60–70 degrees, and for the catfish. 70–75 degrees. When these eggs are laid, the father fish protects the eggs and makes sure nothing happens to them. Lets say someone decides to go fishing at the time the father is protecting the eggs, the male fish will see the hook as a threat to the eggs and attack it. There you go, you got a catch! But do you really know what that means? Because you have caught the male fish, who's there to protect the eggs? The amount of eggs laid by these types of fish can be up to 500. There's a specific reason why it's the male protecting the egg and not the woman, the male is stronger and can protect the eggs from being eaten and can keep them warm better. Any who, because you caught the male protector, the eggs will all die because they will be exposed to the cold lake. That's 501 fish you costs the pond although you only ...

  • 59. Negative Effects Of Eutrophication Abstract: In order to better understand cultural eutrophication a lab was performed on aquatic systems and the concentration of nutrients in those systems. The lab was analyzed once a week for a total time of two weeks. After the two weeks, a trend (treatments with higher concentrations of fertilizer had a higher cell count and lower pH) was discovered and noted the results. Introduction: Eutrophication is a natural process that lakes and certain bodies of water undergo. Eutrophication happens by having a significant level of biodegradable waste in a body of water. The nutrients in the water promote growth of primary producers which has a positive impact on consumers. These nutrients usually cause bodies of water to be cloudy, turbid, have a high number of primary producers, and promote the excessive growth of algae (Koechli, 2015). This then causes the body of water to reduce its dissolved oxygen level, and dead biomass to accumulate. Although it is a natural process, humans can affect these bodies of water by inserting a surplus of nutrients. This process is called cultural eutrophication, which is considered a form of water pollution (Koechli, 2015). This pollution is often caused by fertilizer run–off and much more. It causes the overgrowth of aquatic plants. These plants quickly become crowded and have to compete for space and sunlight. Because of this, aquatic life is threatened due to the low dissolved oxygen, and blocked sunlight. Cultural eutrophication is ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

About 50 meters from the park lies the Birchwood Recreation Center, and right in front of that center lies a small body of water that connects two ponds together; that small flow of water became a symbol of my elementary school years, we called it the creek. In the"we", I am including myself, my friends, and all the hopes and dreams of our younger selves––dreams forgotten before they could be fulfilled.

As we rode, I became increasingly silent, feeling the divide between the old and the new; between me and the people that I had loved, those that were the only people that made me feel truly accepted in my entire school career, came a growing divide. We can still talk, but the words have no meaning, we can still laugh, but the laughter feels fake.

  • 63. The Patterns Of Biological Diversity Throughout Rivers And... The patterns of biological diversity in rivers and streams among taxa vary on a spatial and temporal scale (Ligeiro et al. 2010; McGarvey and Terra 2015). Variations in stream ecology can be contributed to water quality, habitat, and history of disturbance (Lingeiro et al. 2010). Creeks and streams feed into rivers and other larger bodies of water, which provide food, water, and other commercial and recreational services as well as a home to an array of plants and animals which rely on clean water. The health of these smaller bodies of water can act as indicators for the health of the larger watershed. Benthic macroinvertebrates have been used to assess the health of aquatic environments. Quality analysis involves looking at benthic species composition and organization within the stream (Resh and Unzicke 1975). Different macroinvertebrates have differing sensitivities to pollutant, with some being more susceptible to environmental toxins than others (Metcalfe 1989). Such methods group macroinvertebrates in regards to their tolerance to pollution. The EPT Index looks at Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera (mayflies, stoneflies, and caddisflies, respectively) as indicators of aquatic community health. The idea behind the EPT Index is that healthier streams have a greater richness of species as many species of macroinvertebrates are intolerant of pollutions and thus will not be found in low quality bodies of water (Lenat 1988). Previous studies have found that EPT ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Nearly every aspect of human body's function calls for the fluid. WATER makes up much of the medium that helps our cells communicate with each other. Water is a necessary part of life. Vital to your health to drink a certain amount of water. Drinking more water every day will gain you tremendous health benefits. So, there are three important aspects that I'm going to be talking about, these are Functions of water in the body, Health benefits of drinking water and How Much Water Do You Need First. Functions of water in the body. Your body uses water in all its cells, organs, and tissues to help regulate its temperature and maintain other bodily functions. Because your body loses water through breathing, sweating, and digestion, it's important to rehydrate by drinking fluids and eating foods that contain water. Water does more than just quench your thirst and regulate your body's temperature; it also keeps the tissues in your body moist. You know how it feels when your eyes, nose, or mouth gets dry? Keeping your body hydrated helps it retain optimum levels of moisture in these sensitive areas, as well as in the blood, bones, and the brain. In addition, water helps protect the spinal cord, and it acts as a lubricant and cushion for your joints. Second.

An Argument For Community Change Argument for Community Change Just imagine for a moment, strolling barefoot through silky sand, the warm sun beating down, and the sound of waves rhythmically rolling in. Picture dolphins dancing in the distance, seagulls whistling their blissful hymn above, and children laughing as they dance through the ocean spray. Sounds like the perfect escape, right? Tragically, the future of such a beautiful scene is in serious jeopardy! The quality of our waters is degrading at an alarming rate; the human race contributes to the problem daily, often without realizing it. Water pollution in Florida is reducing pure water sources at a drastic rate, destroying natural beauty, and severely impacting the survival of local wildlife. Human actions are a major contribution to this issue, therefore citizen awareness is the highest workable solution to diminish the threat and improve the degradation of our waterways. Florida cities near major waterways should establish annual community events to raise awareness and positively impact this problem. It is no secret that Florida water conditions are deteriorating, but what caused the degradation? There are five state districts that have dedicated missions to figuring out exactly what went wrong and preventing further degradation. In addition, these Water Management Districts are charged with managing the delicate balance of water quality available for human consumption with that of conserving the resources that nature needs in order to thrive. ...

Your essay should begin with an introduction that clearly states the thesis you will argue. The remainder of your essay should analyze at least three pieces of textual evidence in order to show your reader why you think the river means what you've claimed it means. The scientific definition of a river states that a river is a natural stream of flowing water in a channel leading to the sea, a lake, or another river. The world "flow" was used thus showing how a river moves in a continuous stream. Almost replicating life and how it flows in different directions and paths until it eventually goes back to where it once was. A river has no start or end and so is life. Thus I will argue that the flowing river in the story represents the flow of life. A very important quote in Siddhartha states that, "The river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth...in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere, and that the present only exists for it, not the ...

Here Siddhartha makes an important point in which he understands now that he must learn from the water in order to uncover its mysteries. Once he understands the river he realizes that he will be able to uncover everything's mystery.

Email: sheikhsayir@gmail.com Abstract: Mycology is the branch of biology deals with the study of fungi, including their genetic and biochemical behavior, their taxonomy, identification and their use to humans as a source for medicine, food, and entheogens, as well as their dangers, such as poisoning or infection. Mycology had its history from the old times, it is presumed that humans collect fungi from prehistoric times. Fungi are group of eukaryotic microorganism that has the capability to decompose the organic matter and so called as scavengers. Water borne conidial fungi, previously known as Hyphomycetes represent the major microbial elements of decaying leaves in running fresh water. These fungi are characterized by their magnificent conidial types. Key words: Aquatic, Conidial Fungi, Taxonomy. Introduction: Fresh water fungi are those which complete their full or part of their life cycle in water. Fungi that grow on decaying leaves, twigs and other plant parts submerged in water and complete their whole or part of their life cycle in streams, rivulets and rivers are called "Aquatic fungi" and these include members of Zygomycotina, ...

  • 73. An Animal 's Body Water Every dog and cat, no matter their age, has certain nutrients that are necessary to ensure they live a healthy life. It is important for pet owners to be aware of these requirements, so they can be sure the food they choose to feed their animal meets these demands. The six essential nutrients that every animal needs for their body to function include the following: carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, and water. The most important of these nutrients is water. Without adequate water an animal will quickly die, and "a loss of only 10% of an animal's body water can result in death" (Case, Daristotle, Hayek, Raasch, 2011, 9). Water has several different important functions that it plays a role in. For example, water helps an animal's body with digestion and absorption. In addition, water helps an animal's body with temperature regulation and the elimination of waste products (Nutritional Requirements and Related Diseases of Small Animals n.d.). When considering how much water an animal will need there are several factors an owner will need to consider. For instance, if an animal's health status and the type of food they eat can contribute to how much water they will need each day. According to the merckvetmanual, a good guideline for owners to follow is to give an animal around 55ml of water for each kg of body weight.

  • 77. The Impact Of River Macroinvertebrates On The Chemical... Literature Review The main purpose of this literature review is to collate information on how river macroinvertebrates are collected and how the concentrations of phosphorus, nitrogen, ammonia or BOD in the water relate to the families of macroinvertebrates present. Different methods have been used to help collect and identify macroinvertebrates and monitor pollution levels. This review mainly focuses on the kick sampling technique for collecting macroinvertebrates. It then describes the methods that are used to collect the levels of ammonia, phosphorus, BOD and nitrogen. Foy et al (2001) wished to access the effectiveness of regulatory controls on farm pollution using chemical and biological indices of water quality and pollution statistics. The water quality was tested in 42 streams in the Colebrooke and Upper Bann catchments in Northern Ireland during 1990–1998. This was a large timescale therefore more results were collaborated. The method used to collect the samples of invertebrates was kick sampling, these samples were then taken back to the laboratory to identify them. Using the BMWP scoring system a score was then given to the macroinvertebrates, relating to how organic pollution had affected them, with 1 being tolerant and 10 being highly sensitive. To know the pollution statistics there was recorded incidents on farm pollution assessed between 1987 and 1997, this was from a relational farm pollution database.
