The Water Cycle Fill in the graphic organizer on the water cycle Fill in the graphic organizer on the water cycle Define hydrologic cycle Define hydrologic cycle Define: evaporation, condensation, precipitation, transpiration, surface water, ground water
8
The Water Cycle The amount of water is constant, but the amount of water available is not constant The amount of water is constant, but the amount of water available is not constant We use 19% of potential water supply, 81% continues in hydrologic cycle We use 19% of potential water supply, 81% continues in hydrologic cycle
9
The Water Cycle “used” does not mean used up. Almost all water withdrawn from the hydrologic cycle eventually returns to the cycle. “used” does not mean used up. Almost all water withdrawn from the hydrologic cycle eventually returns to the cycle.

19
Surface Irrigation Building a series of large and small ditches to transport water. Large ditch brings water to the fields from a stream or reservoir. Small ditches carry water to growing crops from a canal. Building a series of large and small ditches to transport water. Large ditch brings water to the fields from a stream or reservoir.

32
Agriculture Use Continued Lowered water tables in Texas, Arizona, and California’s San Joaquin Valley Lowered water tables in Texas, Arizona, and California’s San Joaquin Valley Salt water is entering the water table, making the supply unsuitable Salt water is entering the water table, making the supply unsuitable
33
Agriculture Use Continued If supply not from groundwater, drawn from surface water sources If supply not from groundwater, drawn from surface water sources surface water not close to lands in need of irrigation. surface water not close to lands in need of irrigation. Long transport can be wasteful Long transport can be wasteful Hundreds of miles= lost water to evaporation Hundreds of miles= lost water to evaporation
34
Agriculture Use Continued When the water is reached, it is intensified with salt and minerals because it does not evaporate like the water. When the water is reached, it is intensified with salt and minerals because it does not evaporate like the water. Salinization- high concentration of salts Salinization- high concentration of salts Cannot be used Cannot be used

44
Fish and Wildlife Some wildlife and fish prosper in quiet, cold mountain streams, whereas others prefer fast, running rapids When water is dammed or drained, habitat changes and wildlife may die

Recreation Boating Water Skiing Fishing Sailing Swimming Ice rinks Ice hockey Shows on ice Home Pools
46
Domestic Uses Cook, bathe, clean and carry away wastes with water In US, each person uses about 173 gallons a day
47
Domestic Uses Bath=30-40 gallons Shower= 5 gallons a minute Flush toilet= 1.5-3 gallons Laundry= 30 gallons Wash cars, sprinkle lawns, run water fountains, wash city streets
48
Activity Using the information provided, try to estimate how many gallons of water you use each day!

Classification of Water Pollution Sources
51
Warm-up What do you think is the common cause of water pollution?
52
Lesson Essential Question What are the classifications of water pollution?
53
Water Pollution “If wastes are put into the water, they cannot be seen; therefore, they must be gone. After all think of the billions and billions of gallons of water on this planet. There is no way we could ruin it.”
54
Water Pollution 3 basic sources Point Diffuse Background
55
Point Source Pollution Direct introduction of contaminants into the water supply at an identifiable location EX: Wastewater from factory being dumped into a stream through a discharge pipe
57
Diffuse source pollution Aka non-point-source pollution Introduction of contaminants across a wide area EX: Surface contamination from a farm or city that seeps into groundwater supply from runoff.
58
Diffuse source pollution EX in nature: wild fire resulting from lightning might destroy vegetative cover of large land area. Rain or snowmelt result in erosion. Organic matter in water as well as dissolved salts and hydrocarbons.
60
Background Pollution Ongoing natural process As water moves, it generates forces that pick up particles and carry them along. These materials dissolve and move into the water cycle
61
Background Pollution Ongoing contamination from natural sources

64
Warm-up List and Explain the classification of water pollution sources.
65
Lesson Essential Question What are the types of water pollution?
66
Urban Pollution Pollution in our cities due to items such as road salts, street detergents and sewer systems. Runoff of chemicals enters storm sewers and can end up in rivers and streams
67
Urban Pollution Affects ground water supply Methane and ammonia from landfills
69
Industrial Pollution Causes the most pollution Also does the most to control pollution

75
Warm-up What do you think are the most popular agricultural pollutants?
76
Lesson Essential Question How can we detect water pollution? How can we detect water pollution?
77
Agricultural Pollution Animal wastes Animal wastes Pesticides Pesticides Fertilizers Fertilizers Silt sediments Silt sediments
78
Agricultural Pollution Huge buildings and giant feedlots create problems with waste disposal Huge buildings and giant feedlots create problems with waste disposal
79
Agricultural Pollution Spread manure on fields may leach into groundwater Spread manure on fields may leach into groundwater Keep runoff water away from livestock and stockpile manure Keep runoff water away from livestock and stockpile manure
80
Agricultural Pollution Pesticides and fertilizers used to control insects, diseases and weeds. Overuse or incorrect applications may affect groundwater supply Pesticides and fertilizers used to control insects, diseases and weeds. Overuse or incorrect applications may affect groundwater supply
81
Agricultural Pollution Too much fertilizer reaching water creates eutrophication (excessive enrichment of water) Too much fertilizer reaching water creates eutrophication (excessive enrichment of water) Algea-filled Algea-filled No longer useful No longer useful sediment sediment
