The Amazon River, usually abbreviated to The Amazon Spanish and Portuguese: Amazonas, in South America is the largest river by discharge volume of water in the world, and either the longest or second longest.
The headwaters of the Apurímac River on Nevado Mismi had been considered for nearly a century as the Amazon’s most distant source, until a 2014 study found it to be the Cordillera Rumi Cruz at the headwaters of the Mantaro River in Peru.[10] The Mantaro and Apurímac join, and with other tributaries form the Ucayali River, which in turn meets the Marañón River upstream of Iquitos, Peru, to form what countries other than Brazil consider to be the main stem of the Amazon. Brazilians call this section the Solimões River above its confluence with the Rio Negro[11] to form what Brazilians call the Amazon at the Meeting of Waters at Manaus, the river's largest city.

- The Netherlands has a population of 17.53 million and Amsterdam is the northern trade city on the Rhine River. During the Golden Age from 1585-1672, the Dutch Republic built a global maritime empire.
Meander Formation
Meanders form through the process of helicoidal flow. At bends in the river, centripetal force throws water towards the outer bank, eroding and undercutting it. Slower flow on the inside of bends leads to deposition and the formation of point bars. Helicoidal flow causes eroded material to be deposited downstream in the next meander loop, furthering the meandering shape over time as the river seeks the most efficient path.

River Presentation
The document discusses river processes and landforms created by erosion, transportation, and deposition of sediment. Key points include:
- Rivers erode, transport, and deposit sediment through various processes including saltation, traction, suspension, and solution that create landforms such as potholes, rapids, waterfalls, deltas, and floodplains.
- The Hjulstrom curve shows the relationship between sediment size, erosion thresholds, and transportation/deposition based on water velocity.
- Meandering rivers create oxbow lakes through lateral erosion and cut-offs of meander loops over time.
River Nile
The River Nile runs through several African countries and is formed by two main tributaries, the Blue and White Nile. It is home to Nile crocodiles along its entire length and was historically crucial for transporting goods and irrigating the lands that supported Egyptian civilization. Nowadays, the Nile is primarily used for tourism, though it still plays an important role in the agriculture of surrounding regions. In ancient Egyptian mythology, the river was personified by the god Hapi, who was seen as the life-giving source of the Nile's waters and the protector and healer of Egypt.
The Eastern Highlands
The Eastern Highlands of South America consist of igneous and metamorphic rocks split into three main regions: the Brazilian Highlands, Guiana Highlands, and Patagonian Plateau. The Brazilian Highlands cover a third of Brazil and have three sub-regions - the Great Escarpment, Parana Plateau, and Mato Grosso Plateau. The Parana Plateau is located in southern Brazil and is an agricultural heartland known for its soybeans, sugar cane, fruits, and vegetables. The Guiana Highlands are a flat-topped, mountainous region separated from the Brazilian Highlands by the Amazon River that contains rich mining regions.

Rivers and Lakes by Ryan Calleja, 3.01
Rivers and lakes are formed by water from rainfall. Rivers flow within channels that are confined by river beds and banks, and they begin at a source high in the mountains. Tributaries flow into the main river and the river empties into a sea or lake at its mouth. A river basin is the area of land that collects rainwater and drains into a river or lake through a network of tributaries. Lakes provide fresh water for drinking and can generate hydroelectric power by harnessing the energy of flowing water.

It is home to over 3,000 known fish species, including piranhas. The adjacent Amazon rainforest produces about 20% of the world's oxygen and houses extensive biodiversity. Both systems are under threat and protecting the Amazon is crucial.
Lake Superior
Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes by surface area, containing over 10% of the world's fresh surface water. At over 31,000 square miles, it is larger than many U.S. states combined and contains 3 quadrillion gallons of water. Lake Superior has extremely clear waters with underwater visibility up to 100 feet, and it is one of the youngest major geological features on Earth at only around 10,000 years old.
The amazon forest
The Amazon rainforest spans several countries in South America and contains the greatest biodiversity on Earth. It experiences a hot, humid climate year-round between 22-34°C due to its proximity to the equator. The Amazon River, born in the Andes Mountains, is the largest river in the world by volume and flows through the forest before emptying into the Atlantic Ocean. Over 20 million people from diverse indigenous tribes and cultures call the Amazon rainforest home. However, illegal logging has led to the deforestation of over 700,000 square kilometers of forest in Brazil alone in the past few decades.
