3. Water Budget Based on the water budget for Cloverdale, California:
* the climate is probably dry summer subtropical. * the deficit is most intense in July. * flooding is most likely a problem in January.

4. Heavy rain on compacted ground will not infiltrate
Effect on speed of passage of water through drainage basin is ………..
Why?
A or B hydrograph?

5. Soil Conditions
How much open space is there in rock? In this experiment we check the porosity of gravel, sand and silt, the raw materials that sandstone is made of.
For example If you were able to add 90ml of water to 350ml of gravel, the porosity would be
90 ml = = 25.71% 350 ml
Effect of permeable rock on speed of passage of water is…? A or B hydrograph? Why?

6. The individual cells in the grass paver minimise grass and root compaction maintaining its infiltration capacity therefore reducing surface overland flow.
Human interference to increase infiltration… how does it work?
A or B hydrograph?

7. Geology
Which rock will cause the most overland flow and why?
Which rock might slow down the passage of water the most? A or B hydrograph shape?

8. Geology
Which one might be pervious?
Which one would slow down the passage of water the most? A or B hydrograph shape?
Which one would be most likely to flood?

9. Geology
What is an aquifer?
What is groundwater recharge?
If basin is all aquifer rocks – A or B hydrograph shape?

10. Geology and Vegetation
Infiltration rates in Navajo sandstone.
What sort of climate?
What sort of hydrograph A or B?

11. Vegetation
What processes are shown?
How does vegetation affect infiltration?
How does vegetation affect the speed of passage of water through the drainage basin?
How does vegetation affect the hydrograph shape? A or B?

12. Vegetation and Infiltration
Hickory forest will have hydrograph shape A or B?

13. A larger size outdoor pig unit needs light and permeable soils
A larger size outdoor pig unit needs light and permeable soils. This is important, as even after days of constant rain, the farmer has to drive the vehicles to the paddocks to feed and supply water to the animals. However, the condition of the soil is of no considerable importance to the pigs.
Agriculture
What happens to infiltration rate? A or B hydrograph?

14. Agriculture – what can we see?
Impact on overland flow? Impact on sediment movement? Hydrograph A or B?

15. Industry
May demand increased water supply
Effect on passage of water?
Hydrograph A or B?

16. Industry
Can also discharge water
Effect on hydrograph?
A or B?
Effect on water quality?
Effect on sediment?

17. Urbanisation
State four differences in hydrograph shape.
Give a reason for each difference

18. Urbanisation
What happens to evapotranspiration, overland flow, infiltration?

19. Increasing Urbanisation or movement towards the (what?)
What happens to evapotranspiration, overland flow, infiltration?
Effect on speed of passage of water?
Effect on hydrograph shape – A or B?
