World’s Water Cycle

By Michael Como | November 3, 2013 |

lakeQuestion: Where does our water come from?

Answer:

Sydney  Water gives it to Sydney siders through Warragamba Dam and a desalination plant and a reservoir for a  fee.

While we may say ‘the tap’ or name the nearest dam, the answer is really that it is all part of the world’s water cycle.

The natural water cycle

Water evaporates by the action of the sun from oceans, lakes and streams to provide moisture (humidity) in the air. Transpiration from growing plants and trees assist. The water collects in bigger droplets to become visible as clouds, which are moved by wind and heat, precipitating rain, hail or snow elsewhere.

Depending on the intensity, the water is absorbed into the ground to nourish growing matter and moves down to hard impervious rock (the ‘water table’). Sometimes it collects underground or seeps down into deeper strata as an aquifer, which is usually ancient and pure water. Surface run-off of water is minimised by vegetation, before collecting in creeks and streams and making its way back to the oceans. It’s a good example of a closed-loop eco-cycle.

Urban water cycle

The world’s natural water cycle is being constantly disrupted and polluted by human activity. As we cut down trees and vegetation we reduce the amount of moisture transpiring into the atmosphere. Smog over cities and urban areas reduces evaporation too, as does the warming caused by buildings and hard paving. The water that does runoff is usually contaminated by oils, petrol, lead dust and the like, plus rubbish washed into the stormwater. With greater run-off and often greater velocities-there is less infiltration and opportunity for the groundwater or deeper aquifer to recharge. What’s more, we pollute this water too readily from industrial processes, landfills, and the discharge of effluent into the ground by septic tanks. Such actions change natural weather patterns, affect soils, affect biodiversity, and contaminate clean water. [Image source google]

    With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement? My blog has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any techniques to help stop content from being stolen? I’d truly appreciate it.

    Currently it sounds like Expression Engine is the preferred blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?
