The water in the settlement of Jamestown has been described as “brackish”, which is a mixture of saltwater and freshwater.The water was brackish, because the tide mixed with the fresh water.

figure 1, an average of 1.55cm root was grown out of the four roots. This could have been an invalid or a random occurrence. I believe this one direct could have been invalid due to human error. There could have been too much water being added into the dish, not enough water being added, not being sealed properly, etc. Each group received an average of zero root growth in the indirect group.

Then everybody that needs water won't have any because people are taking to much. There should be rules for underground water. If there are no rules…

After five years of drought, California has been accessing groundwater to provide for their water needs. The access of groundwater use has caused the land to sink slowly over decades, but recently the more extensive pumping has caused the groundwater levels to quickly reach dangerous lows. This has resulted in the land to sink at a rapid rate, putting a large section of California’s aboveground infrastructure at risk. NASA was able to discover this notable difference in land height through radar…
