Water never leaves the Earth. It is constantly being cycled through the atmosphere, ocean, and land. This process, known as the water cycle, is driven by energy from the sun. The water cycle is crucial to the existence of life on our planet.
This power point presentation is all about water resources and its characteristics.It is presented by Ram Angeles and Frank Gutierrez of section 11- San Juan from Rizal Technological University

Week 1 - Assignment 1
Stream Morphology Laboratory
[WLO: 1] [CLOs: 1, 3, 5]
This lab enables you to construct a physical scale model of a stream system to help you understand how streams and rivers shape the landscape, and how human actions can affect river ecosystems. This lab is done with materials that you will need to supply; the list of items you will need to obtain is in the Stream Morphology Investigation ManualPreview the document.
The Process:
Take the required photos and complete all parts of the assignment (calculations, data tables, etc.). On the “Lab Worksheet,” answer all of the questions in the “Lab Questions” section. Finally, transfer all of your answers and visual elements from the “Lab Worksheet” into the “Lab Report.” You will submit both the “Lab Report” and the “Lab Worksheet” to Waypoint.
The Assignment:
Make sure to complete all of the following items before submission:
Before you begin the assignment, read the Stream Morphology Investigation ManualPreview the document and review The Scientific Method presentation video.
Complete Activity 1 and Activity 2 using the materials that you supply. Photograph each activity following these instructions:
When taking lab photos, you need to include in each image a strip of paper with your name and the date clearly written on it.

Overview
Students will construct a physical scale model of a stream system to help understand how streams and rivers shape the solid earth (i.e., the landscape). Students will perform several experiments
to determine streamflow properties under different conditions. They will apply the scientific method, testing their own scenarios regarding human impacts on river systems.
Outcomes
• Design a stream table model to analyze the different characteristics of streamflow.
• Explain the effects of watersheds on the surrounding environment in terms of the biology, water quality, and economic importance of streams.
• Identify different stream features based on their geological formation due to erosion an.

GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER INTERACTIONS
Overview
Clean drinking water is vital for all human life. In this lab, students
will learn how freshwater sources interact through the natural
processes of the hydrosphere (all the water on the planet)
and what happens to drinking water supplies when our planet
becomes altered by human activities. Students will design models
of different scenarios that affect the earth’s surface water and
groundwater. The models will demonstrate overconsumption and

Background
The hydrosphere encompasses all the water
on the planet. It includes freshwater and
saltwater; liquid, solid, and vapor; and water
