quickly erodes the rocks. The height and number of waterfalls along a stream or river depends upon the type of rocks that are being eroded by the water. Some types of rocks (shale‚ for example) wear away more easily than others (such as sandstone or limestone). As the river or stream wears away the weak rocks‚ they travel across the surface of stronger rocks. These more resistant rocks become the capstones to waterfalls. The number and thickness of these stronger rock units in a vertical sequence of

The art work I chose “two Statuettes of two worshipers”‚ from the Square Temple at Eshnunna (modern Tell Asmar)‚ Iraq‚ ca. 2700 BCE.

The river erosion processes involved in the formation of waterfalls are hydraulic action‚ abrasion and solution. Hydraulic action is the force of moving water on the land. Fast flowing water forces out looses rock and soil from the river bed and bank. Soft rock is eroded faster than hard rock (differential erosion) and overtime the bank will collapse. Abrasion is the wearing away of the river bed by its load. Stones carried by the river smooth the river channel deepening & widening it. Solution

composition is based on dissolved solutes ranging from gases in the atmosphere to minerals from rocks and soils. The cations Ca2+ and Mg2+ are the most abundant species found in natural waters. These ions come from soluble sedimentary rocks such as limestone‚ dolomite‚ and gypsum.2 The presence of these dissolved ions in the water gives it a chemical property that is called water hardness. Water that is hard has a very high concentration of Ca2+ and Mg2+‚ as well as other dissolved cations and anions

Case Study 1: Great Barrier Reef - 1. Introduction Coral reefs are on the most complex ecosystems on earth. They are predominantly found in the Indian Ocean and on the Western edges of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. The global distribution of coral reefs is influenced by a number of factors‚ including life and sea surface temperature. Coral reefs require such a unique set of biophysical interactions that they are highly vulnerable to human-induced change. For example‚ just a small change in sea
