Density

[image]

Defintion : a variety of factors affect water density, more dense water sinks, setting up convection currents

Sentence : Density IS water.

Ex1 - Less dense

Ex2 - More dense

Definition : The water at the ocean surface is moved primarily by winds that blow in certain patterns because of the Earth's spin 

Sentence : Surface currents are contolled by the wind.

Ex1 - Upwelling

Ex2 - Wind

Defintion : a process in which deep, cold water rises toward the surface

Sentence : Upwelling is also controlled by the wind.

Ex1 - Cold water

Ex2 - Warm water

Defintion :  how a moving object seems to veer toward the right in the Northern hemisphere and left in the Southern hemisphere

Sentence : The coriolis effect has to do with earth's rotation.

Ex1 - Wind

Ex2 - Earth's rotation

Definition : the density and how coldwater sinking down the bottom and the warmer rising

Sentence : Deep ocean currents happen deep in the ocean.

Ex1 - coldwater

Ex2 - warmwater

Defintion : a continuous cycle where water evaporates, travels into the air and becomes part of a cloud, falls down to earth as precipitation, and then evaporates again

Sentence : The water cycle repeats over and over and over again.

Ex1 - Water

Ex2 - Evaporation

Defintion : water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil

Sentence : Ground water is underground.

Ex1 - water

Ex2 - underground

Definition : The top layer of a body of water

Sentence : The surface water is the top of a lake or steam.

Ex1 - water

Ex2 - lake

Groundwater Cross Section

[image]

Water Table : the level below which the ground is filled with water

Permeable Table : An aquifer where the water table is at or near atmosphere pressure

Impermeable Table : how heavy a rock is

Confined Aquifier : An aquifer that is under pressure

Unconfined Aquifier : able to recieve wate from the surface

Pumped Well :

Artisian Zone : a well in which water rises under pressure

Zone of Saturation : the area of the ground that has all the spaces filled with water

Zone of Aeration :

Cone of Depression : happens in an aquifer when groundwater is pumped from a well

Benefits :

Drawbacks :

Aquifier Depletion

[image]

Benefits : good resource

Drawbacks : dangers of heavily pumping water from aquifers

Benefits :

Drawbacks : can lead to contamination of drinking water sources and other consequences

Dams

[image]

Benefits : controls the waterrunning through a specific river

Drawbacks : extremely expensive

Dams Removal

[image]

Benefits : money consequences

Drawbacks : water will be all over the place

Point source pollution

[image]

Definition : a source that s easily seen or noticed

Sentence : f you cant see it, its a point source pollution

Ex1 - sewage

Primary waste water treatment

[image]

Definition : removes flotaing materials

Sentence : The primary waste water treatment is the first stage of the whole process.

Ex1 - filters

Ex2 - scrapers

Secondary waste water treatment

[image]

Definition : removing contaminants

Sentence : The secondary waste water treatment comes after the primary waste water treatment.

Ex1 - runoff

Ex2 - household sewage

Tertiary waste water treatment

[image]

Definition : to make sure the water is clean

Sentence : The goal of tertiary waste water treatment is to remove unwanted elements.

Ex1 - final

Ex2 - removal

Sludge
