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.
Bodies Of Water
Oceans, rivers, and lakes are the three main types of bodies of water on Earth. Oceans are large bodies of salt water surrounding continents, with the Pacific being the largest. Rivers are flowing bodies of fresh water that cross land and empty into seas or oceans. Lakes are large bodies of fresh water surrounded by land on all sides, such as Lake Kaweah in Tulare County.

Earth
Earth is the only planet that can support life, but human pollution is putting the future of Earth at risk. Global warming is causing glaciers to melt and sea levels to rise, which could lead to the destruction of Earth through flooding, as prophesied. If temperatures continue to increase, it may cause widespread habitat loss, species extinction, and dangerous weather that could make many coastal cities uninhabitable. To save Earth for future generations, people must take action now to reduce global warming through lowering pollution and protecting the environment.

Birds migrate seasonally between breeding and wintering grounds, often traveling north in the summer and south in the winter. Migration allows birds to move to areas with more abundant resources like food and nesting sites as seasons change. However, migration carries high risks from predators and human hunting. Climate change is reducing the habitats that migratory birds depend on for resting and refueling during their journeys through effects like rising sea levels flooding coastal wetlands, desertification reducing available land, and changing weather patterns. The loss and degradation of these stop-over habitats is making migration more difficult for many bird species.
What is hydrosphere
The hydrosphere includes all water on, above, and below the Earth's surface, such as oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, streams, groundwater, surface water, and water vapor in the air. It covers 70% of the Earth's surface and provides habitat for many organisms. The hydrosphere consists of oceans, which contain 97% of the planet's water, as well as seas, lakes, rivers, groundwater, and water in the atmosphere.
Bodies of Water
The document discusses the key characteristics of major bodies of water: oceans are the largest, covering 70% of Earth's surface and containing salt water; rivers flow towards oceans and other bodies of water, transporting fresh water from rain and snow; streams flow into rivers and are confined within banks; lakes are surrounded by land and can be natural or manmade; and ponds are smaller and more shallow than lakes, also containing fresh water.

Tides
The Mont Saint-Michel Bay in France experiences significant tidal movements of over 10 meters, uncovering a great expanse of the bay at low tide due to its location. The Hopewell Rocks in Canada's Bay of Fundy also see large tides. Tides are caused by the moon's gravity, with high tide occurring when the moon's pull is strongest on the side of Earth facing it and low tide when the water level falls lowest. Spring tides during a full or new moon produce unusually high high tides and low low tides, while neap tides during a half moon have less extreme high and low tides.
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.

The document discusses the global water cycle and distribution of water on Earth. Most of Earth's water is salt water located in oceans, while only 2% is fresh water found in lakes, rivers, and underground aquifers. The water cycle involves evaporation of water from bodies of water into clouds, which condenses and falls as precipitation back to Earth. Humans have significantly impacted water through use for agriculture, industry, trade, and more, with 2/3 of the population dependent on fish and water used for power generation and transportation.

Water in the earths processes vocabulary2
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the Earth's surface, driven by energy from the sun. Water evaporates from oceans, lakes, and soil into the atmosphere, where it condenses to form clouds and precipitates as rain or snow back to the Earth. Some precipitation is absorbed into the ground to become groundwater, while some runs into streams, rivers, and lakes before eventually returning to the oceans, completing the cycle. The water cycle is crucial for sustaining life on Earth.

This document discusses different types of estuaries:
- Bar-built estuaries are formed by sandbars along coastlines that partially block water flow and mixing. Wind is the main factor mixing fresh and salt water. Examples include Florida, Netherlands, North Carolina, and Texas coasts.
- Coastal plain estuaries formed as sea levels rose after the last ice age. They tend to be shallow with sloping bottoms and contain various fish and crab species.
- Tectonic estuaries are formed by earth's crust movements that cause sinking. Most form along fault lines during earthquakes, like San Francisco Bay.
- Fjords are long, narrow inlets with steep cliffs carved by
Unit 3. Water
The document discusses the water cycle and the different forms and locations of water on Earth. Most of the Earth's water is located in oceans and seas, which make up 97% of the total water. The remaining 3% is continental water found in rivers, lakes, glaciers, and underground. Water is constantly moving between these different locations and states through precipitation, evaporation, runoff into rivers and oceans, and melting of ice and snow. Rivers flow from their source downstream through three stages - upper, middle and lower courses - before emptying into oceans, lakes, or other bodies of water.
Eco
Sustainable development means ensuring present needs are met without compromising future generations' ability to meet their needs. Groundwater is a renewable resource that makes up 20% of the world's fresh water supply and acts as a natural storage buffer during droughts. However, recent evidence shows groundwater is under serious threat of overuse in many parts of India - about 300 districts have seen over 4 meters of water level decline in the past 20 years, nearly 1/3 of the country is overusing reserves, and at the current rate of use 60% of the country will be overusing groundwater within 25 years, particularly in agriculturally productive regions of Punjab and Western U.P., hard rock areas of central and south India,
Bodies of water
The document discusses different types of bodies of water on Earth. It states that about 3/4 of Earth's surface is covered by water, but only 1/2 cup out of a gallon jug represents the amount of fresh water. The largest oceans are the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, and Arctic. Lakes are bodies of water surrounded by land, and the Great Lakes are located in Michigan. Rivers contain fresh water and flow into larger bodies of water. Ponds and streams are smaller than lakes and rivers.
Bodies of water
The document discusses different types of bodies of water such as streams, rivers, lakes, and waterfalls. Streams are small and narrow bodies of water that join together to form wider rivers. Rivers can empty into lakes and range from clear to muddy. People and animals rely on streams and rivers as a source of fresh drinking water.
Water bodies
This document summarizes the major water bodies of Earth. It explains that 3/4 of the Earth's surface is covered by water in various forms called water bodies. The largest water bodies are the five oceans: Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic, and Antarctic oceans. It also describes seas as large water bodies smaller than oceans, which can be marginal seas partly enclosed by land or inland seas covering central land areas. Minor water bodies include bays, lakes, gulfs, lagoons, straits, and rivers.
Planet earth is in danger
The document discusses the beauty of nature but warns that the planet Earth is in danger from environmental pollution and overexploitation of resources. It notes that agricultural activities, fossil fuel usage, and chemical industries all contribute to environmental pollution, and if exploitation continues then by the end of the century over a third of fertile land could be lost along with millions of species as the population requires more resources. The document calls on people to do small things like participating in community cleanups and not littering to help take care of the Earth, as it is the only planet we have.
Grade 11 Chapter 4 Module Earth Science : Water Resources
- Water resources are natural resources that are potentially useful for agricultural, industrial, household, recreational and environmental activities. All living things require water to grow and reproduce.
- Water exists on Earth in different forms and locations, including oceans, atmosphere, ground, and within living things as part of the hydrologic cycle. The hydrologic cycle involves the continuous movement of water between these different reservoirs through various processes like evaporation and precipitation.
- Freshwater, which makes up a very small percentage of the total water on Earth, is found as glaciers, groundwater, atmospheric water vapor, and surface water resources like rivers, lakes, and wetlands that are important for human and other uses.

Gonzales trajico report (chapter4)
Water is essential for life on Earth and is continuously circulated through various reservoirs in the hydrosphere in a process known as the water cycle. The water cycle involves evaporation of water from oceans, rivers and lakes into vapor which rises into the atmosphere. Water vapor condenses to form clouds and precipitation falls back to the Earth's surface, completing the cycle. Most of Earth's water is saline and located in oceans, while freshwater is found in ice sheets, groundwater, atmosphere and other reservoirs with varying residence times.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
