Freshwater is defined as water with low salt concentration, usually less than 1%. It occurs naturally inland away from seas and oceans. There are different types of freshwater regions including ponds and lakes, streams and rivers, and wetlands. Rivers and streams are running freshwater that can last thousands of years, with higher oxygen levels. Lakes and ponds are standing freshwater that typically only last hundreds to thousands of years with lower oxygen at depth. Freshwater habitats in the Philippines include rivers like the Puerto Princesa Underground River and Enchanted River, lakes such as those in Mt. Pinatubo and Mt. Taal craters, and endemic species like the Philippine freshwater crocodile, purple river crab

Freshwater
Freshwater is water containing less than 1% salt, including water found on the Earth's surface and underground. There are three types of freshwater: lentic water found in still bodies like ponds and lakes; lotic water in flowing bodies like streams and rivers; and wetlands like swamps and marshes saturated with water. Freshwater covers about 3% of total water on Earth, with about 0.3% as surface water and the rest as ice caps and glaciers or groundwater. Problems affecting freshwater include loss of habitat, pollution, and overuse of resources.

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders are injuries to muscles, nerves, tendons, etc. caused by repetitive or forceful motions. The document identifies "caution zone" jobs with risk factors like awkward postures, forceful motions, or vibration. It requires awareness training and evaluating such jobs for hazards. Identified hazards must be reduced through engineering or administrative controls or safe work practices.
Water resources of India
Water covers three fourths of the Earth's surface and is one of our most important natural resources. Most water on Earth is not suitable for drinking, and only 3% of water is fresh. Rain is the primary source of fresh water, but many places only receive rain for 2-3 months each year so we must conserve this vital resource. Water is obtained from various sources like rivers, lakes, wells, and tubewells, and structures like canals, dams, and rainwater harvesting help collect and store fresh water for household and agricultural use.
Industrial toxicology
Industrial toxicology deals with the toxic properties of substances that people are exposed to in occupational and non-occupational settings. Toxicity is the study of how the body responds to toxic substances. Toxic effects can be acute or chronic and result from inhalation, ingestion, skin/eye contact, or other routes of exposure. Setting workplace standards involves understanding chemical toxicity through methods like chemical analogy, animal experimentation, and establishing exposure limits based on a substance's toxic properties.

Basic Exercise physiology
This document provides an overview of basic exercise physiology, covering the cardiovascular, respiratory, neuromuscular, and endocrine systems as well as energy systems. It describes the structure and function of each system at rest and in response to exercise. The cardiovascular system increases cardiac output to meet oxygen demands during exercise. The respiratory system increases ventilation to supply more oxygen to working muscles. The neuromuscular system controls voluntary movement through motor neurons. Hormones released by the endocrine system prepare and regulate the body's response to exercise. There are three energy systems - phosphogen, anaerobic and aerobic - that provide ATP for muscle contraction depending on exercise intensity and duration.
Water resources
Water resources are sources of water that are useful or potentially useful for various human uses. Virtually all human uses require fresh water, but only 3% of the water on Earth is fresh, and over two thirds of that is frozen in glaciers and ice caps. As the global population rises, water demand is exceeding supply in many areas, so there is increasing scarcity of accessible, clean fresh water. The major sources of fresh water are surface water, groundwater, and frozen water. Water is used for agricultural, industrial, household, and environmental purposes.
Freshwater Ecosystems
Freshwater ecosystems include rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, and wetlands. They make up a small fraction of the Earth's total water but support a diversity of habitats and species. Rivers and streams flow with cold, oxygen-rich water and can broaden and slow downstream. Lakes and ponds differ in size, with ponds being smaller and sometimes seasonal. Wetlands, including marshes and swamps, act as filters to clean water and protect shorelines from erosion. Freshwater ecosystems face threats from pollution and development.
Estuarine systems
The Estuarine System consists of deepwater tidal habitats and adjacent tidal wetlands that are usually semienclosed by land but have open, partly obstructed, or sporadic access to the open ocean, and in which ocean water is at least occasionally diluted by freshwater runoff from the land. The salinity may be periodically increased above that of the open ocean by evaporation. Along some low-energy coastlines there is appreciable dilution of sea water. Offshore areas with typical estuarine plants and animals, such as red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle) and eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica), are also included in the Estuarine System.
Libunao, christine jamille
The aquatic biome covers nearly 75% of the Earth's surface and can be divided into fresh water and marine water regions. Fresh water regions have low salt concentrations, while marine water regions make up the largest biome. Aquatic biomes include ponds, lakes, streams, rivers, wetlands, oceans, coral reefs, and estuaries. These contain zones like littoral, limnetic, profundal, and benthic that each support different types of plants and animals.
FRESH WATER
Fresh water is defined as having a low salt concentration, usually less than 1%. It can be found in ponds and lakes, which absorb heat from the sun and support various plant and animal life. Streams and rivers are bodies of moving water that change in characteristics from source to mouth, with cooler temperatures at the source. Wetlands are very wet areas that support aquatic plants adapted to humid conditions, such as marshes, swamps, and bogs.
Envi engg water and wastewater
Water resources can be divided into surface sources and subsurface sources. Surface sources include ponds, lakes, streams, rivers, and storage resources like dams. Subsurface sources include springs and wells. Together these natural sources provide most of the planet's fresh water supply, though only a small percentage is readily accessible for human use.
Water around us CZ
Water covers 70% of the Earth's surface and there is about 1.5 billion cubic kilometers of water on Earth. 97% is salty seawater, 2.1% is locked in ice caps, and less than 1% is freshwater. The water cycle involves evaporation, condensation, and precipitation that allows water to circulate through the biosphere. Water is essential for life and takes the form of liquid, solid (ice), and gas (vapor) on Earth.

Finally, it provides some examples of common plant and animal life found in freshwater ecosystems.
Water Quality Indicators substances found in water.ppt
Most dissolved substances found in water are measured in parts per million (ppm) or even smaller amounts. This means that for every one million parts (units) of water there is a certain number of parts of the substance.
Bodies of water
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Water can change between liquid, solid, and gas states in this cycle. In its purest form, water is a chemical compound made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Bodies of flowing water include rivers, creeks, brooks, and canals, which vary in size and flow. Bodies of non-flowing water include oceans, lakes, ponds, reservoirs, sloughs, marshes, and estuaries, and also vary in size and salinity.
Fresh water and marine ecosystems
This document summarizes freshwater and marine ecosystems. It discusses the key features and threats to various ecosystems, including lakes/ponds, wetlands, rivers, estuaries, coral reefs, the ocean, and polar regions. The main types of freshwater ecosystems described are lakes/ponds, which have littoral, open water, and benthic zones, and wetlands like marshes and swamps. Threats to these ecosystems include pollution from industry, agriculture, and development. Marine ecosystems discussed include estuaries where fresh and saltwater mix, coral reefs built by polyps in warm tropical seas, the ocean with its depths lacking light, and polar regions relying on phytoplankton
Biomes freshwater
This document provides information about various freshwater biomes including wetlands, rivers, lakes, and how humans interact with these environments. Wetlands are found globally and have waterlogged soils that support over 5,000 plant species. Rivers flow from headwaters to mouths, changing in characteristics along their path. Lakes range widely in size and depth, supporting diverse shoreline and open water ecosystems. Freshwater biomes are crucial for human water supply but are threatened by pollution and activities like dam construction that can harm native species.
Estuaries1.ppt
Estuaries are transitional zones where freshwater from rivers meets saltwater from the ocean. They are highly productive ecosystems that support a wide variety of life. Many estuaries were formed when sea levels rose after the last ice age, flooding river valleys. Organisms living in estuaries must cope with fluctuating salinity levels. Estuaries contain several distinct communities including open water, mudflats, salt marshes, and mangrove forests. However, human activities like dredging and development have damaged many estuaries globally.

Mineral water is water that contains dissolved minerals or other substances that give it taste or therapeutic properties. It can be naturally occurring from mineral springs or prepared by adding minerals. Mineral water is often carbonated and can have substances like salts, sulfur compounds, and gases dissolved in it. Traditionally, mineral springs were sites for consuming and bathing in the mineral-rich water and developed into spa and resort towns. Now mineral water is commonly bottled at its source for distribution and consumption elsewhere. There are over 3,000 brands of mineral water commercially available worldwide.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect

Freshwater
- 2. WHAT IS FRESH WATER? Freshwater is salt free water or it is not sea water. It occurs naturally on the earth's surface. There are different types of freshwater regions: ponds and lakes, streams and rivers, and wetlands. Freshwater is found inland and away from the sea. Freshwater is defined as having a low salt concentration—usually less than 1%.
- 4. Running water Examples: Rivers, streams, creeks Fresh water Can last many thousands of years Higher percentage of dissolved oxygen in water, due to water flowing Animals must be adapted to survive in high oxygen content Lower salt content Fed by melting snow and rain Animals must prevent excess water in bodies. Fish must be able to survive in flowing water.
