As you crank the variable resistor to higher resistance, the total current in the loop decreases.  The power dissipated by the light bulb ... the heat and brightness it produces ... depend directly on the current through it, so they decrease too.  Your circuit is a perfect incandescent light dimmer circuit.

The picture below shows Lake Jackson in Florida
nikklg [1K]
The reason why Lake Jackson disappeared is A. opening of a sinkhole.
Pollution, high atmospheric temperature, and absorption of water by the land aren't enough for an entire lake to disappear, however, a sinkhole may contribute to that. There are two major depressions (sinkholes) in this lake in Florida, and they even have their own names - Porter Sink and Lime Sink.
