1 HYDROLOGY NOTES LLAMA, LLAMA AND WRITE YOU NAME AND PERIOD AT THE TOP
2 QUIZ TIME: WHAT IS HYDROLOGY GOING TO BE ABOUT? A. A NATIVE AMERICAN MYTH ABOUT HYDROL THE SPIRIT WHO CONTROLS THE RAIN. B. AN EARLY BATTLE IN UTAH BETWEEN THE NATIVE AMERICANS AND MORMONS OVER THE SETTLEMENT OF LAND NEAR WATER. C. THE STUDY OF WATER MOVEMENT, DISTRIBUTION AND QUALITY. D. THE STUDY OF THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER TO DESERT PEOPLE. E. THE TITLE OF A TV EPISODE THAT WE ARE GOING TO WATCH BECAUSE MISS HANSEN IS TIRED AND DIDN T WANT TO PLAN A LESSON FOR TODAY
3 HYDROLOGY C. THE STUDY OF MOVEMENT, DISTRIBUTION, AND QUALITY OF WATER
4 HYDROLOGY HYDROLOGISTS: STUDY AND MAKE MAPS OF WATER SYSTEMS AND MEASURE DEPTHS THEY STUDY PRECIPITATION, STREAM BEDS, FLOODS, AND GROUNDWATER. GROUNDWATER: ANY FRESH WATER BENEATH THE EARTHS SURFACE
5 HISTORY PLACE: NILE RIVER IN EGYPT ( IN AFRICA) TIME: 4,000 BCE WHAT: DAMMED TO PROVIDE IRRIGATION (SUPPLYING WATER TO FARMLAND BY MAN-MADE MEANS TO HELP IN GROWING CROPS).
6
7 HISTORY CONTINUED ANCIENT GREEKS AND ROMANS BUILT AQUEDUCTS.
8 HOW IT WORKS: Romans built them to bring a constant flow of water from far away places into cities and towns Public baths, bathrooms, fountains, and households No electricity required

10
11 CURRENT HYDROLOGY: GOVERNMENTS ARE PAYING FOR HYDROELECTRIC PROJECTS: STRUCTURES THAT CREATE ELECTRICITY FROM THE POWER OF A RIVER CURRENT
12
13 DRAINAGE BASIN DEFINITION: AREA OF LAND DRAINED BY A RIVER SYSTEM RIVERS ARE FORMED WHEN SMALLER STREAMS COME TOGETHER. SMALLER STREAMS ARE CALLED TRIBUTARIES. THE SMALLEST TRIBUTARIES IN HIGH MOUNTAIN AREAS ARE FROM SPRINGS CALLED HEADWATERS. ALL THESE PARTS ARE CALLED A RIVER SYSTEM
14
15
16 DRAINAGE DIVIDE DEFINITION: BOUNDARIES THAT SEPARATE ONE RIVER SYSTEM FROM ANOTHER MOST DIVIDES FOLLOW RIDGES, HILL TOPS, AND MOUNTAIN RANGES CONTINENTAL DIVIDE SEPARATES THE WATER IN NORTH AMERICA THAT FLOWS INTO THE GULF OF MEXICO, ATLANTIC OCEAN, AND THE WATER THAT FLOWS INTO THE GREAT BASIN AND PACIFIC OCEAN. IT FOLLOWS THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS.
17
18
19 RUNOFF DEFINITON: WATER THAT RUNS INTO THE DRAINAGE BASIN SPRING HAS MORE RUNOFF AS THE SNOW MELTS INCREASE IN FLOODING
20 CURRENT HYDROLOGY PROBLEMS TODAY PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING FOR THE SAME WATER FARMERS ARE USING/WANTING MORE AQUIFERS: LARGE BODIES OF UNDERGROUND WATER. PROBLEM: WATER LEVELS FALL THE OGALLALA AQUIFER HAS BEEN USED SO MUCH BY FARMERS THAT MANY WELLS AND PUMPS NO LONGER GO DEEP ENOUGH TO REACH THE WATER IN THE AQUIFER
21
22 CURRENT HYDROLOGY PROBLEMS COLORADO DRAINAGE BASIN IS SO OVER USED THE COLORADO RIVER NO LONGER REACHES THE PACIFIC OCEAN. SERVES UTAH, COLORADO, ARIZONA, NEW MEXICO, NEVADA, CALIFORNIA, AND MEXICO.

33 BLUE CASTLE HOLDINGS: WE WANT A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT COMPANY CLAIMS 53,600 ACRE-FEET OF WATER IN THE GREEN RIVER UTAH COURT SAID THAT THE PROJECT WOULD NOT REDUCE WATER LEVELS IN THE RIVER AND THAT THEY HAVE PERMISSION TO START BUILDING THE NUCLEAR PLANT ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS SAY IT WILL AFFECT THE AMOUNT OF WATER IN THE RIVER AND COULD CAUSE DAMAGE/HARM TO PEOPLE LIVING NEAR BY COURT SAYS THEY WILL STOP THE PROJECT IF IT WERE FOUND HARMFUL TO THE PUBLIC WELFARE.
34 COMPANY NEWS STATEMENT THE PROPOSED MULTI-UNIT NUCLEAR PLANT COULD INCREASE THE ELECTRICITY GENERATED IN UTAH BY APPROXIMATELY 30 PERCENT.. USING LESS THAN 1 PERCENT OF THE STATE S CURRENT WATER. THE BLUE CASTLE PROJECT WILL HAVE A SIGNIFICANT BENEFICIAL ECONOMIC IMPACT FOR THE ENTIRE STATE OF UTAH AND THE HOSTING LOCAL COMMUNITIES MOLLY MARCELLO: THE TIMES-INDEPENDENT (MOAB)
