Transparency
How does rain/runoff affect the transparency of a river?
It kicks up sediment.
How would a drought affect stream flow?
There would be less water in the river.
How could a higher temperature affect the amount of dissolved oxygen in a river
Higher temperatures decreases the amount of dissolved oxygen.
Would fertilizer use increase or decrease nitrate levels?
It would increase nitrate levels.
What is the universal law of gravitation?
The bigger the object the more things are attracted to it.
How does construction affect the transparency of a river?
It creates lose dirt.
How would rain/runoff affect stream flow?
There would be more water in the river.
How could a lower temperature affect the amount of dissolved oxygen in a river?
Lower temperatures means it increases.
Would dumping human/animal waste into a river increase or decrease nitrate levels?
They would increase.
What 2 variables affect gravitational force?
Mass and distance.
How does agriculture/farming affect the transparency of a river?
Also creates lose dirt.
How could humans affect stream flow?
The agricultural business and irrigation.
In general, is it better for dissolved oxygen levels to be higher or lower?
Higher
Would a higher plant population increase or decrease nitrate levels?
Which variable of gravity does NOT change?
Gravity.
How would a drought affect the transparency of a river?
It wouldn’t.
How could seasons affect stream flow?
The summer time decreases the amount of water in the river while in the spring it increases.
What is the dissolved oxygen standard for Vermillion River trout?
7 mg/L
Is a higher or lower nitrate level better?
A lower level is better.
if an object is at rest it will stay at rest, which makes its velocity what?
Zero.
Is it better for a river to have a high or low transparency?
Higher is better.
Is it better for a river to have a higher or lower flow?
Bit of both.
Is it better for a lake to have more or less dissolved oxygen?
Higher is better.
What is the standard level of nitrates for Vermillion River trout?
10 mg/L
What is inertia?
The property of an object to resist any change in motion.
