AS geography revision Start early…. There is a lot to learn. Use this as your starting point. There is more help available on the geography revision pages of Moodle and also on AQA’s website‚ where you will find past papers‚ mark schemes and also examples of student answers (exemplars). You can buy a CGP revision guide if you would like to (£5 from college) but also on Amazon and from WHSmith. The bits that the CGP revision guide doesn’t have in it for AS Geography….

(i) A rising limb (ii) B peak discharge (iii) C baseflow [3] [1] (c) Explain how two of the catchment conditions given in Fig.1 affect the shape of the hydrograph. – – – Clay allows little infiltration as it gets saturated quickly and therefore the more water would form overland flow. The steep sided topography means that water

Section A - Restless Earth The earth’s structure At the centre of the earth is the core. Surrounding that is a mass of molten rock called the mantle. The thin layer on the outside is called the crust. There are two types of crust‚ continental and oceanic. The crust is made up of seven major plates and many smaller ones. The plates move due to convection currents rising in the mantle. Distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes Mainly found along plate boundaries. In

Introduction The projects objective is to design a bridge spanning across the Murrumbidgee River located near Gundagai. Through the use of hydrological data and hydraulic analysis we will determine the required height of the bridge corresponding to a specific frequency of flood. To design a bridge capable of spanning the Murrumbidgee River and flood plain will require hydrological analysis which takes into account all upstream data that is required for the catchment area of the river that will

Introduction Introduction: Aim: How do channel characteristics change with the long profile in the River Wandle? Background: In south – east England the River Wandle lies as a tributary to the river Thames running through south west London at 9 miles long. The names of the river and of wandsworth have been seen to derive from old the old English “Wendlesworth” meaning “Wendle’s settlement.” Rain falls on the North Downs‚ filters through the chalk and emerges on the spring line at the wandles
