Apes unit 4 progress checkStudents want to determine how vegetation affects soil erosion. They collect four soil samples of equal starting mass with different types of vegetative cover, as seen in the table below. Each sample is placed in a three-sided plastic dish that can drain into a beaker and is exposed to the same amount of consistent, steady rainfall for ten minutes. The water and soil runoff are collected in the beaker and separated. The average values for each sample are provided below....

What is the water cycle? - The cycle operates in a variety of spacial scales where physical processes control the circulation of water between stores on land, oceans, the cryosphere and the atmosphere. It works as a closed system with inputs (rainwater), outputs, stores and gravitational potential energy. It begins with evaporation where water vapour from the ocean is lifted and condensed in the atmosphere to form clouds. Moisture is then transported around the globe and returns to the sur...

The Water Cycle And Water Insecurity Exam Style Questions And Answers Describe how deforestation is affecting the Amazon basin - The amount of water  returning to the atmosphere by evapotranspiration is greatly reduced — from  75% to 25% of intercepted water. More precipitation enters the river by runoff.  Overland flow increases the amount of soil erosion. Huge quantities of soil are  entering the rivers and causing extensive silting. Mudslides are increasing in  frequency and sc...
