Introduction The urbanization of a catchment is a drastic change in land use, and has major effects on the hydrological cycle during heavy rainfall events because of its impermeable surfaces (G. E. Hollis). By recording the discharge in a catchment the data can be used to create a hydrograph. It is often useful to analyse a hydrograph because it shows how quickly rainwater moves to the stream channel (Holden J. 2012.) The aim of this study is to compare an urban and rural catchment, and to find…

one of the things that I learned more about was the problem with surface runoff of fertilizers and how it interacts with herbicides. The lab showed the participants on a small scale how eutrophication occurs and how it doesn't take a long time for algae to take over an area. Nitrogen and Phosphorus are usually found in fertilizers but not always at the same time. A study done said “ Concentrations of phosphorus and nitrogen in surface waters are being regulated in the United States and European…

slope is a pile of loose rocks that have collected at the bottom of a mountain, cliff, or any high point.

Children should be provided with an environment that is not over crowded with too many students and not enough resources- something that can be difficult in certain school systems. Overall the indoor…

that nests that were away from the burrow in sandy areas survived more than the ones in burrow aprons. They also learned that the nests that were in places that burned up during the research had a very low survival (Dziadzio et al., 2016). Many research studies are being done to find ways to change the environment to help prevent the extinction of the gopher tortoise. Styrsky, Guyer, Balbach, and Turkmen (2010) did a study on the interaction of area and abundance of the burrows to predict…
