acres on lakes. Chinampas were small, rectangular islands that were artificially made by the Aztecs and contained vegetation on top that would allow up to six crops to be grown at once (Aghajanian 2007). Small rows were strategically placed in between the chinampas in order for canoes to fit through, allowing easier access to the crops. Irrigation systems, such as aqueducts and damns, also created by the Aztecs themselves, provided the water for the crops as did the water from the lake. The…

sea; not only is this the longest river in New Zealand, but it is also one of the most polluted waterways in the whole entire nation. The Waikato River start at Lake Taupo, and in a study (Waikato Regional Council, n.d.) showed that the clarity of the water passes 10 metres far in the beginning, this quickly shifts very shortly beyond Lake Taupo. Even just by the Ohaaki Bridge, the clarity of the water is awfully diminished to four metres. As we go farther onward, the water becomes progressively…

way to completely eradicate lake trout, but if no steps were taken for reducing the lake trout, it was estimated that cutthroat could be eliminated by up to 70% in 100 years (Duncan, Murphy, & Zale, 2009). They started to look at measures which could be taken for controlling the population. At a workshop in 1995, scientists determined that the use of gill netting as a method of gathering information that was needed for determining effective management in reducing lake trout population structure…

The lake seemed to stretch on forever as if the mountain was slowly draining into it and creating perfect copy of itself. Halfway across the world from my home in Massachusetts, the wilderness of New Zealand reached out to me. The hours before had been full of adventure as my father and I had trekked to both the Fox and Franz Josef glaciers. The final trip had not even been part of our plan, but as we drove through the quaint mountain town of Fox Glacier a blue sign signaled the route to the…

Similar to rhythm in music and…
