Lesson 12 river basin features
This document provides information about river drainage basins. It discusses how drainage basins are defined as the area of land drained by a river and its tributaries. Key points include:
- Rivers flow downhill from highland source areas through three main sections - the upper, middle and lower courses.
- The boundaries of the drainage basin are defined by watershed areas of high land.
- As the river flows downstream, its characteristics change with width, depth, and volume increasing.
- Common exam questions involve locating features on diagrams of river basins and explaining river landforms and processes like erosion and transportation of material.
Rivers Drainage Basin
A river basin, also known as a drainage basin, is the area of land drained by a river and its tributaries. As rain falls on the land, any water in the drainage basin will flow towards the main river channel. The boundaries of the basin are defined by areas of high land known as the watershed. As a river flows downstream from its source, it passes through three stages - the upper, middle and lower courses - where its characteristics change and it increases in size.

River Seven
The document provides information about the River Severn in England. It is 354 km long and flows through cities like Shrewsbury, Worcester, Gloucester, and Bristol before emptying into the Bristol Channel. Its source is located in Plynlimon, Wales, which is the highest point in Mid Wales. The document includes pictures and a video about the River Severn and concludes with trivia questions.
Flipped lesson 1 - The Course of a River
This document provides instructions for students to work independently or in groups based on their level of understanding of river system concepts. Students are divided into green, amber, and red groups corresponding to high, moderate, and low levels of understanding. The green group focuses on explaining sediment transport processes and changing river valley shapes. The amber group reviews valley formation and annotates meander diagrams. The red group reviews prerequisite videos, labels landforms on a worksheet, and creates annotated diagrams of river features. The goal is for students to work at their own pace on knowledge and skills tailored to their current understanding.
5. depositional features
This document discusses the characteristics and formation of three river depositional landforms: levées, flood plains, and estuaries. It includes definitions and descriptions of each landform, as well as explanations of how they are formed through deposition during flooding. The document aims to help students explore and understand these key river features. It provides learning materials like worksheets and questions to aid comprehension.
River Rejuvenation VLE
This document discusses river rejuvenation and the landforms it produces. River rejuvenation occurs when a river's base level changes, such as due to sea level change or glacial isostatic adjustment. This decreases the river's gradient, increasing its erosional power. Key landforms produced include waterfalls, incised meanders, river terraces, and knickpoints as the river grade is adjusted to the new base level.

Lesson 13a he river from source to mouth
This document provides information about how rivers change from their source to mouth, including definitions of river terms and stages. It discusses the upper, middle, and lower stages of a river and defines factors like erosion, gradient, depth, velocity, width, volume, and landforms. It also examines the river drainage system and provides examples about the River Severn and its source, upper course, middle course, and lower course.
River Rejuvenation
River rejuvenation occurs when a river's base level changes, altering the gradient of the river channel and increasing its erosive power. This causes the river to cut downward into its channel, forming landforms such as waterfalls, incised meanders, and river terraces. Changes in base level are typically caused by isostatic adjustments to sea level from glacial rebound or eustatic sea level changes.
Rivers
The document discusses a student's investigation of two small tributary rivers, Whittaker Clough and Hurst wood beck. The student measured various characteristics of the rivers, including cross-sectional profiles, long profiles, gradient, and velocity to analyze erosion, deposition, and transportation processes. Key findings included the upper course of Whittaker Clough having a velocity of 0.55m/s, and the middle to lower course having a velocity of 0.62m/s. The student concluded they were able to achieve the goals of the investigation to study river processes, despite limitations of time and the small size of the tributaries.
The river power point
This document is a PowerPoint presentation for teaching a poem called "The River" to 8th standard students. It begins with an introduction and asks students entry-level questions about rivers. It then presents the poem in 4 stanzas, explaining each one. It discusses the themes of comparing the river's journey to the stages of life. In the last section, it provides exercises like defining difficult words, asking scaffolding questions, and assigning students to analyze words showing the river's movement at different speeds.
River Profiles
This document discusses river profiles, fluvial landforms, and river capture/stream piracy. It begins by outlining the learning objectives, which are processes of river transportation, river profiles (long and cross), fluvial landforms, and river abstraction/stream piracy. It then provides details on longitudinal and cross river profiles, including typical shapes and features. A number of fluvial landforms are described, such as meanders, waterfalls, levees, and deltas. The document concludes by explaining river capture/stream piracy, how watershed boundaries can shift due to unequal erosion rates on either side of a drainage divide.
Mountainous course project
- The mountainous course of a river occurs as it flows through mountains near its source. In this course, the river experiences high velocity and erosion that forms landforms.
- Key landforms formed in the mountainous course include V-shaped valleys, gorges, canyons, potholes, and rapids/waterfalls, which are formed through the river's corrasive erosion over time.
- Images included in the presentation depict examples of these landforms like the Grand Canyon as well as picturesque views of rivers at night.
Ccea river landscapes and processes final
The document describes various landforms and processes associated with river systems. It discusses how rivers form V-shaped valleys through vertical erosion in their upper courses. It then describes how meanders form through lateral erosion, and how this can lead to ox-bow lakes and floodplains. Finally, it discusses depositional landforms like levees, deltas, and braided channels that form in the lower courses of rivers.
River Tees From Source To Mouth
The document describes the changes in characteristics that occur along the River Tees from its source to its mouth.
In the upper reaches, the river has a V-shaped valley with steep slopes, a narrow channel, and large angular bedload from erosion. Moving downstream, the valley floor widens and the channel develops meanders. Sediment deposition increases and the bedload becomes mixed and rounded in the middle reaches. Near the mouth, the river passes through a wide, flat plain and forms a large tidal estuary.
Yr10 rivers-lesson 2-river processes
The document discusses river processes and how to teach students about them. It includes questions to help students identify the objective of the lesson, which is to identify the river processes that take place in a channel. It then outlines what students must, should, and could know by the end of the lesson, including identifying the three main river processes of erosion, transportation, and deposition. The document provides information and examples about each of these processes and how they operate in a river system.
Evolution of landform
This document summarizes the normal cycle of erosion by fluvial processes. It describes the three stages: youth, mature, and old. In the youth stage, the river flows steeply, forming V-shaped valleys, gorges, and waterfalls through vigorous erosion. In the mature stage, the river gradient decreases and deposition begins, forming landforms like meanders, ox-bow lakes, and floodplains. In the old stage, the river gradient is low and deposition dominates, forming deltas at the river's mouth. The ideal cycle ends with the formation of a peneplain, but crustal instability prevents most landscapes from reaching this final stage.
How Do Rivers Shape The Land
Rivers shape the land through erosion and deposition as they flow from their sources downstream. In the upper course near the source, the river erodes steep V-shaped valleys due to its high gradient and velocity. In the middle course, meanders and oxbox lakes form as the river erodes the outside of bends and deposits sediment inside bends. In the lower course near the mouth, floodplains and deltas form as the river's velocity decreases and it deposits large amounts of sediment.

L3 water supply problems
Different countries face varying water supply problems based on factors like population density, rainfall levels, and infrastructure development. In the UK, imbalanced rainfall and an aging system challenge water access, while developing nations commonly struggle with untreated water, pollution, and low annual precipitation. The lesson explores how population maps, rainfall charts, and development levels relate to these international differences in water issues.
L2 consumption patterns
There are differences in water consumption between developed and developing countries. Developing countries use a high percentage of water for agriculture, around 88%, due to inefficient irrigation systems and widespread subsistence farming. Their water usage for industry is low at 2% as there is little large-scale manufacturing. Developed countries have a lower agricultural water usage rate of 9% as they employ modern irrigation techniques. Their industry water usage is high at 79% to support extensive manufacturing activities. Domestic water usage makes up 12% in developed nations but is rising in developing nations where access to piped water is limited.
L1 variety in supply ap
Freshwater availability varies globally due to its uneven distribution and factors like population growth, climate change, and development levels that impact supply and demand. Aquifers underground store freshwater, but some are being drained faster than replenished. While three percent of water is fresh, two thirds is frozen and one percent is available for human use.
L6 developing world cs
China faces significant challenges with sustainable water management due to having only 7% of the world's freshwater resources but over 19.5% of the global population. To address this, China is taking several steps including implementing more efficient irrigation techniques for agriculture, building new reservoirs and water transfer projects, treating more wastewater, and raising public awareness of water conservation issues.
L5 fresh water supply
The document discusses sustainable management and use of water. Over 80 million more people are added to the global population each year, placing increasing demands on water resources. Agriculture and increasing meat consumption in countries like China also impact water usage. Two million tons of human waste is dumped into rivers daily. Individuals can help by planting drought-tolerant plants and using water-efficient appliances. Organizations in places like Las Vegas recycle water from hotels through advanced filtration systems. The government implements initiatives around limiting outdoor watering and pricing to encourage conservation.
L4 attitudes and desal ap
1. Las Vegas gets 90% of its water from Lake Mead, but over the last 10 years the water level has dropped by half. One solution is to build a 500km pipeline to transfer water to the city.
2. Desalination is a technology that can resolve water shortages by removing salt from seawater to make it suitable for drinking. It involves reverse osmosis, where pressure is used to squeeze water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane, leaving salt behind. It is commonly used in dry, coastal regions like Spain, Australia, and Saudi Arabia.
3. Desalination has pros like providing a reliable water source, but cons such as high financial and energy costs.
L1 ap classification, exploitation and changes
The document defines and classifies natural resources. It distinguishes between biotic factors like living organisms and abiotic factors like non-living things. Resources are also classified as renewable like solar energy or non-renewable like fossil fuels. Humans exploit resources through activities like overgrazing, overfishing, deforestation, and overusing water. This causes changes like soil erosion, declining fish populations, loss of biodiversity, and depleted aquifers. Humans also exploit energy resources but burning fossil fuels pollutes the environment and contributes to issues like acid rain.
L2b uk distribution
This document provides information about the distribution of natural resources across the United Kingdom. It discusses the variety of soils and how they support different types of farming in different regions. It also outlines where forestry, fossil fuels, water supply and minerals are located in the UK, noting that forestry is concentrated in the north and west, coal was historically mined in places like South Wales, oil and gas come from offshore fields in the North Sea, and minerals are extracted from both land and under the sea.
Resource use and consumption
This document discusses global patterns of food, energy, and water use. It notes that developed countries consume far more resources per person than developing nations. For example, the average North American consumes around 90kg of resources daily compared to just 10kg for the average African. While the world produces enough food overall, it is unevenly distributed, leading to both obesity and famine. Developed nations like the U.S. consume a disproportionate amount of the world's energy and water resources despite having a small percentage of the global population. Patterns of consumption depend on development level and resource availability within each country.
L2a resource distribution
Global natural resources are distributed unevenly around the world based on climate and geography. Soil quality and types determine agricultural productivity and are best in areas with brown forest soil. Approximately 40% of Earth's surface is used for farming. Forests cover 30% of land, with concentration in Brazil, Canada, and the US. Fossil fuel reserves are highest in the Middle East, Venezuela, Canada, and Russia. Rock and mineral deposits are found worldwide, with certain areas rich in resources like diamonds, iron ore, or precious metals depending on their geological history. Water sources include rivers, rainfall, and desalination, but some populations face future shortages due to climate change and increasing demand. The distribution of these vital natural

L1 mexico city
Mexico City is located in central Mexico within the Valley of Mexico. Globally, it is situated in North America, while regionally it lies near the country's borders with the United States and the Gulf of Mexico. Mexico City serves as the capital and largest city of Mexico. The urban structure of Mexico City consists of a central business district surrounded by inner city, suburbs, and an urban rural fringe. Land use varies across these zones from services and high-cost housing in the center to informal settlements at the urban periphery.
L1 ap urbanisation over past 50 years
Over the past 50 years, developed countries experienced slowing urbanization while emerging and developing countries underwent rapid urbanization. Globally, more people now live in urban rather than rural areas, as shown by satellite images of the lit-up world at night. Urbanization increased in emerging and developing nations due to factors like industrialization, rural to urban migration, and economic development.
Inequality in mexico
1. There is significant inequality between the rich and poor in Mexico City. The poor often earn just enough to survive and cannot save, while many work in the informal sector without taxes or protections.
2. The poor typically live in crowded areas on the outskirts of the city that lack basic services, while the rich occupy wealthier neighborhoods near the center with amenities. Income, rural migration, political influence, and long work hours contribute to the differences in quality of life.
3. The main reasons for inequality are that the poor earn low and unstable incomes; many migrate from rural areas with nothing; the rich have more political power; and the poor often work longer hours.
Ap urban growth mexico
Mexico City's population has grown quickly due to rural-to-urban migration as people leave tough rural living for more economic opportunities in the city. This migration has been caused by both national and international factors as companies open new factories near Mexico City, drawing more people. Impacts of migration on Mexico City include the creation of ethnic enclaves, pressure on housing as migrants settle both near the city center and on the outskirts, and services straining to support Mexico City's young and growing population.
Ap solving mexico city problems
This document discusses different strategies for improving cities, specifically in Mexico City. It outlines top-down and bottom-up approaches.
The top-down approach involves large-scale developments led by the government, where officials make the major decisions. Examples given include a housing agency that provided millions of mortgages and private developers building large identical housing developments. Issues arose from a lack of infrastructure to support the new housing.
The bottom-up example provided is of Neza, a squatter settlement whose residents organized to gain land ownership. They raised funds collectively for schools and utilities. This led to a thriving community with less crime than other parts of Mexico City.
The document asks the reader to consider the advantages and

It defines sustainability as meeting present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs, often considering social, economic, and environmental aspects of city living. The document outlines an activity for students where they will research in groups how Birmingham specifically addresses issues like recycling, employment, education, health, transport, affordable housing, and energy-efficient housing to promote sustainability.
Lesson 6 retail changes ap
The document summarizes the major changes in retailing that have impacted Birmingham over recent decades:
1. In the 1800s, suburbanization occurred as people moved from the crowded, polluted city center to spacious suburbs.
2. In the 1870s, industry began relocating from city centers to the suburbs.
3. In the 1980s, out-of-town shopping centers like Merry Hill opened, taking 12% of the city center's trade and offering free parking and large retailers.
4. Birmingham's city center fought back through redevelopments like the Bull Ring and Grand Central that improved pedestrian access and amenities.
5. Internet shopping has grown to 15% of
Lesson 5 inequality ap
The document discusses inequality within the city of Birmingham. It notes that while some areas like Moseley and Edgbaston have been commended for their quality of life, other inner-city areas suffer from multiple deprivation and economic decline related to the loss of manufacturing jobs. Deprived areas are identified using indices that measure factors like unemployment, income, health, education, and crime. The causes of inequality in Birmingham stem from deindustrialization that led to high unemployment and less money circulating in inner cities, creating a downward spiral of decline, while newer suburban areas benefit from positive economic multipliers.
L3b ap b'ham popn
Birmingham's population has experienced significant growth and changes since 1825.
1) Birmingham's population grew rapidly in the 19th century during the Industrial Revolution as people moved to the city for work in new industries.
2) The population peaked at around 1.15 million in 1950 before declining between 1950 and 2000 during a period of deindustrialization and globalization that closed factories and increased unemployment.
3) Since 2000, Birmingham's population has grown again due to new developments like the Bull Ring and improved transport links like High Speed 2 rail.

A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
