WARM-UP
• 3 inferences • 2 observations• 1 rational
reason why freshwater icebergs float in saltwater sea

Let It Flowpg 11 in TOC
![Page 4: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Most precipitation falls where?• Most precipitation falls in the ocean. • Nearly ¾ our planet is covered by
oceans.
![Page 5: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Does this precipitation remain freshwater?
• No, it is absorbed by the ocean & turns salty– The saltiness of water is
called salinity– But why?
• Water is called the UNIVERSAL SOLVENT because many other substances dissolve in it
• Water ranges from dissolving nutrients from rocks and soils to dissolving things such as gases in the air
![Page 6: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Still, over ¼ of precipitation falls over land…Where does this water go?
![Page 7: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A lot of the water that hits land seeps into the
ground through permeable rock
(substance in which liquids can flow through)
into aquifers we can access by wells &
springs
If the water doesn’t absorb into the
ground it is run-off.
![Page 8: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Run-off happens over areas called drainage or river basins.
• The goal of all run-off is to move from higher land to the lowest point, which is the ocean
![Page 9: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Divides and gravity are responsible for helping water flow downward into river basins
• Each river basin is made up of smaller watersheds (Place where water drains)
![Page 10: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Here is an example of River or Drainage Basin. Let’s identify
the watersheds
• How many smaller watersheds are in this river/drainage basin?
• At least 9, maybe more?
![Page 11: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
So let’s draw a river basin…
![Page 12: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

• Picture
![Page 13: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Warmup • Explain where and how we access
majority of our drinking water. Minimum of 4 sentences
![Page 14: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Estuaries • Estuaries have twice the life because
2 ecosystems are colliding• This is where freshwater (from rivers,
streams, creeks) meets saltwater (ocean)
• Also known as brackish water
![Page 15: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Estuaries have….• Double the plant life• Double the nutrients • Double the breeding & feeding possibilities
![Page 16: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
2 types of estuary:
SALT MARSH• Atlantic Carolina
coastsStinky cord grassAbsorbs tons of moisture
MANGROVES• Louisiana &

![Page 19: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
So where does estuaries fit on our hand/arm model
![Page 20: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Now that we have looked at run-off, what about Groundwater
• Who thinks they can tell me what groundwater is?
![Page 21: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Most our FRESH DRINKING WATER comes from UNDERGROUND
![Page 22: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Fresh Earth under our feet can be measured 3 ways:
1. grain size (size of the bits)
2. porosity (space between the bits)
3. permeability (how fast something passes through)
![Page 23: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Make a quick table
substance grain size (large, small, super fine)
porosity (high, medium, low)
permeability (fast, slow, none)
gravel
sand
clay
![Page 24: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Questions to answer• Which sample was more permeable to water?• Which sample was least permeable?• Why did water move faster through some
materials then others. GIVE FULL EXPLAINATION• If I were trying to create an aquifer, in what order
would these materials be arranged? Explain• What did you learn from this demo?
![Page 25: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
You should have this…
substance grain size (large, small, super fine)
porosity (high, medium, low)
permeability (fast, slow, none)
gravel large high fast
sand small medium slow
clay super fine low not permeable
![Page 26: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Groundwater is found almost everywhere under the ground, filling in spaces between sand, rock, and soil.
• Below the Earth’s surface, groundwater accumulates in permeable soil known as aquifers.
![Page 27: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The water table is the top level that water settles underground
![Page 28: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
1. Is the land above a water table permeable or impermeable? How do you know?
2. Is the land below the water table permeable or impermeable? How do you know?
3. When looking at the diagram, how do we normally access groundwater
4. Explain what the diagram is trying to environmentally warn us about?
![Page 29: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Ways to get groundwater to surface
1. Man-made Well – pipe dug into ground to extract water from aquifer
2. Artesian Well – water flows naturally to surface because it’s under pressure
3. Spring – water flows to surface because surface of land dips below water table
4. Hot Spring/Geyser – water heated up by rocks, pushes up to surface due to pressure
![Page 30: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Here’s another example of a spring that must be holding back some water beyond this impermeable rock
![Page 31: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
But why can’t our water stay fresh…• Water is a universal solvent (it can
dissolve other substances)
![Page 32: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• Solvent – the liquid in which a substance is dissolved when a solution is formed
• Ex1. Water (solvent) in saltwater lakes• Ex2. water (solvent) in Koolaid drink mix
![Page 33: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Solute – the substance that is being dissolved when a solution is formed
• Ex1. Salt (solute) in saltwater lakes• Ex2. Koolaid powder (solute) in Koolaid
drink mix
![Page 34: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Solution – a mixture of one or more substances with water that forms a clear, colored, or colorless liquid
• Ex1. water (solvent) + salt (solute) = saltwater lake (solution)
• Ex2. water (solvent) + Koolaid powder (solute) = Koolaid drink mix (solution)
![Page 35: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Identify the solvent, solute, and solution

Remember….
• Solutes dissolve in solvents to make a solution.
![Page 38: Warm-up & Something to think about… Explain where you think most precipitation falls on Earth? Why? Why is it so hard to find freshwater on Earth?](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032414/56649ef45503460f94c07291/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Mrs. Ralph wanted your help making her usual morning cup of English Tea.
She then decided to see how smart you were and asked:
– You to identify the parts: Solute, solution, and solvent
– Explain a way you can separate the water from the other contents after its already been mixed
