To determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones. This is called the Rule of Superposition. ... With absolute age dating, you get a real age in actual years
The Seine river
Did you hear about the guy who dived in to a river in France? He was in-Seine!
Insane. Get it? No? OK...
Answer:
3 years
Explanation:
Even there was a dry year in 1979, the area received almost the normal amount of rain in 1980.
In 1981 however, the year was quite dry, with rainfalls in drop of almost 20%, that began one of the most important drought in the history of Brazil.
In 1982, rainfalls were down by 30% and it got even worse.
In 1983, the rainfalls were down by about 35%, essentially destroying all the agriculture system that had been severely damaged by the two previous years.
In 1984, rain came back a bit higher than its traditional levels, and in 1985, the area was flooded by rain surpassing the average by 60%!
Flooding can affect rivers because river flooding causes things to be picked up from the streets and pulled back into the water. So It affects the water quality and if anything dangerous to the fish and water life gets in the water it will mess up their life system. Hope this helped a little bit. :)
