How does Different Levels of Pollution in Streams or Ponds Affect Macro invertebrate Species? Organisms without back bones are Macro Invertebrate species (Seminole.Wateratlas.Usf.Edu ‚2012) . These organisms are small but can be seen without a magnifying glass (Waitakere.Govt.Nz ‚ 2002) . Size ranges from 3-20mm long (Waitakere.Govt.Nz ‚ 2002) .Insects‚ crustaceans‚ mollusks‚ worms‚ leeches‚ and anemones are classified a Macro invertebrate species (Waitakere.Govt.Nz ‚ 2002). Streams that are

Causes of floods Flood is overflow of the huge amount of water onto the normally dry land. Flood occurs when the overflowing water submerges land and causes deluge. It is a cruel and violent expression of water. Catastrophic floods are the floods that are caused by some significant and unexpected events‚ for instance dam breakages. Heavy rainfalls are one of the major causes of floods. The level of water in rivers or lakes rises due to heavy rainfalls. When the level of water rises above the

Introduction: This lab investigates the question‚ what is the water quality of the U-High creek based on micro invertebrates found in the creek? There are many factors that affect the quality of water such as phosphorus and nitrogen levels‚ dissolved oxygen‚ and pH. Phosphorus and nitrogen in water can increase the growth of aquatic plants and algae‚ leading to the decomposition of dead plant material and the removal of dissolved oxygen from water. The total nitrogen concentrations for freshwater

Cause and Effects of the Devastation of Nature The devastation of nature is a global concern nowadays. It is because the changes that’s been done to nature which is caused mostly by human activities. When we pollute the air‚ land and water‚ this harms the nature. Bulldozing wetlands and cutting down forest also destroys the nature. These are only few of the activities that contribute to the devastation of nature. Overgrazing and groundwater pumping are some of the activities that damage

Topics to cover in our story book: clean water – don’t use river water‚ water from puddles‚ etc! It IS contaminated and may contain cholera-causing bacteria that will make you sick. Don’t use charcoal whenever you can‚ use LP gas if possible! Why? Remember this tree… with the swing… you could climb it‚ sit under it for shade‚ play on it‚ hide beneath it’s roots‚ etc. But charcoal is made from the destroying this trees… and all these trees. When too many trees are cut down‚ animals (which ones

Vernal pools are small‚ isolated wetlands that occur in a forested setting throughout Michigan. Vernal pools are isolated wetlands because they are not permanently connected to other bodies of water. They need to be flooded and dried out long enough and frequently enough‚ to house flora and fauna that have special adaptations for coping with inundation and water drawdown. They are small enough and shaded enough that recognized open-structure natural community type. The amount of water in a vernal

CHAPTER 3 Response surface methodology 3.1 Introduction Response surface methodology (RSM) is a collection of mathematical and statistical techniques for empirical model building. By careful design of experiments‚ the objective is to optimize a response (output variable) which is influenced by several independent variables (input variables). An experiment is a series of tests‚ called runs‚ in which changes are made in the input variables in order to identify the reasons for changes in
