What is an aquifier

Information collected by the researcher
primary data
What are some of the consequences of storing waste in land fills
Hotter temperatures, ocean circuit disruption, habitat loss, ice sheets melting, severe weather,
What is impacts of climate change
water well that doesn’t require a pump to bring water to the surface. This occurs when there is enough positive pressure in the aquifer to bring the water to the surface.
What is Artesian Well
the gradual process by which ecosystem develops and changes in a region that has not previously been colonized
Primary succession
Samples based off random numbers, can be created by a computer, minimizes bias and is useful for small samples
