Unit 8 water on earth
The earth is made up of water, land, and an atmosphere. Water exists in three states - solid, liquid, and gas. It is the most abundant component on earth and is essential for most living things. Water can be found in oceans, seas, rivers, lakes, clouds, underground, and as water vapor in the air as part of the continuous water cycle.
Water in nature
Rivers flow from high elevations down to lower elevations, eventually reaching the sea, lakes, or other rivers. They have three parts - the upper, middle, and lower courses. The upper course is narrow and fast-flowing near the source, the middle course widens and slows as tributaries join, and the lower course is widest and slowest as it approaches its end. Dams are built across rivers to store water in reservoirs, which provide benefits like drinking water. Groundwater filters through soil and rock to form deposits under the ground. Lakes form in depressions filled by rain and river water, while ponds are smaller bodies of fresh water. The Earth's oceans, such as the Pacific and Atlantic

6th Grade Strand 6 Concept 1
Lakes and rivers are important bodies of freshwater on Earth. Lakes and rivers contain water, which can exist as a solid, liquid, or gas. While water covers 70% of the Earth's surface, most is saltwater - only 1% of the total water on Earth is freshwater available for human use, found primarily in lakes and rivers. Rivers drain the landscape and transport water and minerals to oceans, beginning as small streams and merging into larger rivers like the Amazon and Mississippi that span great distances. Lakes vary in depth, size, and location around the world, storing about 90% of the Earth's surface freshwater aside from oceans.

LAKES-RIVERS-AND-ESTAURIES.pptx
Lakes, rivers, and estuaries were described. Lakes form in basins surrounded by land and are fed by rivers or streams. The top 10 countries by number of lakes were listed, with Canada having the most. Rivers are defined as flowing bodies of water with channels. Rivers are classified by factors like flow patterns, ecosystem, geology, and recreational difficulty. Estuaries are coastal areas where rivers meet the sea, creating brackish water. Estuaries are classified based on their formation and water circulation patterns.
The oceans
The document discusses several key topics about oceans:
- Oceans hold 97% of Earth's water and formed as the planet cooled. Oceanography studies oceans.
- Ocean floors have various features like trenches, ridges, canyons, and atolls. The floor is divided into shelves, slopes, and plains.
- Ocean water properties like salinity, measured in parts per thousand, vary by location and depth due to factors like evaporation and river inflows.
- Ocean water movement includes surface waves, tides from gravitational forces, and large-scale deep and shallow horizontal currents driven by density and rotation.
1 hrly gs ch 04 oceans
The document defines and describes various bodies of water. There are 5 oceans in order of size: Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic. Oceans have no boundaries and deep ocean beds support basic life. Seas are partially surrounded by land and are generally shallower than oceans, allowing plant and animal life. Gulfs are deep inlets of the sea almost surrounded by land. Bays are areas of water mostly surrounded by land. Lakes are bodies of fresh or salt water completely surrounded by land, ranging from small ponds to large seas. Waterfalls are where water flows rapidly over a precipice or steep slope.
Hydrosphere1-1.pptx
The document discusses the hydrosphere and the distribution of water on Earth. It describes the water cycle by which water evaporates from oceans and transpiration from plants, condenses to form clouds, and precipitates as rain or snow back to Earth's surface and subsurface. It outlines the major types of water found on Earth's surface, including streams, rivers, lakes, swamps, marshes, and underground water, as well as Earth's ice and oceans which hold the vast majority of the planet's water supply.
Unit 4
The document summarizes the hydrosphere, or Earth's water system. It describes the three states water can be in - solid, liquid, and gas. Most water is found as liquid in oceans and seas, which covers about three quarters of the planet's surface. Water also exists as solid ice in glaciers and polar ice caps, and as a gas in the form of water vapor in the atmosphere. The water cycle describes how water is continuously circulated and recycled between these states through evaporation, transportation by wind and air currents, precipitation, and collection in rivers, lakes, oceans, and underground. Fresh water makes up a small percentage and is found in rivers, lakes, wetlands, and underground aquifers and glac
Sources of drinking water on earth.
The document discusses the various sources of drinking water on Earth. It identifies surface water sources like streams, rivers, lakes, ponds, and rain water, as well as groundwater sources such as wells, springs, infiltration galleries, and impounded reservoirs. Less than 3% of the planet's water is available as fresh water for human consumption. While Earth has abundant water resources overall, we need to conserve our valuable fresh water supplies for drinking.
Categorisation of limnetic fisheries resources
This document categorizes and describes different types of limnetic (inland water body) fisheries resources. It discusses lacustrine (lake) systems, including zonation patterns in lakes and thermal stratification. It also covers rivers, cold water bodies, wetlands including flood plains, and threats/conservation efforts. Key points include descriptions of eutrophic, oligotrophic, and mesotrophic lakes; types of wetlands like swamps, marshes, bogs, and fens; fish diversity in different systems; and impacts of habitat loss.
Fresh Surface Water
Lakes are inland bodies of water formed in depressions where water collects. They are formed through processes like diastrophism, glacial action, and volcanic activity. Lakes provide many benefits like transportation, water storage, hydroelectric power, and recreation. Specific types of lakes include kettle lakes formed in depressions left by melting glaciers, tarn lakes in mountain hollows, and volcanic lakes that form in volcanic craters. Oxbow lakes form from river meanders that are cut off. Swamps occur in low-lying areas and transition between lakes and dry land depending on the season.

Most liquid water is found in oceans as saltwater, while a small percentage exists as freshwater in lakes, rivers and groundwater. Water cycles between these states through evaporation, precipitation and collection in various water bodies. It moves through oceans and inland waters in waves, tides and currents.
Unit 3
The hydrosphere refers to all the water on Earth, which exists in three states: solid, liquid, and gas. Most solid water is ice found in glaciers and polar ice caps. Liquid water makes up oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers. Water vapor is the gas state found in the atmosphere through evaporation. The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water between these states through evaporation, precipitation, and collection. Inland fresh water includes rivers, lakes, wetlands, and groundwater stored underground in aquifers. Salt water found in oceans and seas is denser and varies in temperature based on depth and latitude. Tides and ocean currents influence the regular movement of seas.
Depositional landforms
Floodplains form along river banks when flooding deposits sediment. Levees are natural embankments of coarser sediment deposited along river banks during floods. Braided rivers divide into small streams separated by islands of deposited gravel and sand within the channel. Deltas are flat lands formed of sediments deposited at river mouths, with distributaries transporting sediment into the sea.

Activity 2.4 language acquisition
Several factors influence the success of second language learners:
- Social context, such as the status of the first and second languages and social forces, affects learning success. The type of second language being learned, such as a foreign language, also impacts success.
- Social experience, including the quantity and quality of second language input and interaction, significantly influences ultimate success because social variables are complex.
- The relationship between the first and second languages, such as transfer of features from the first language, determines how easy a second language is for speakers of a particular first language.
- While children may have an advantage in brain plasticity, age alone does not determine success, as adults have advantages in learning capacity.
Learning activity 1.4 Veronica Moreno
This document discusses the psychology of second language acquisition. It covers topics such as how the brain processes language, the learning processes involved, and individual differences between learners. Key areas of the brain like Broca's area and Wernicke's area are involved in language production and comprehension. Learning is influenced by forming connections between concepts. Individual factors like age, sex, aptitude, motivation, cognitive style and personality can impact how successfully someone acquires a second language. Younger learners may have advantages in some areas while older learners in others. Females sometimes perform better than males. Good learning strategies are also important for language learning success.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
