Name 3 features of underground water and explain one of them in detail​

Geography

White raven [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The geological nature of the soil determines the groundwater's chemical composition. Water is continuously in touch with the soil in which it stagnates or circulates and so the composition of the soil develops in a balance with the water which circulates within a sandy or granite substratum which is acidic and has a few minerals.

Explanation:

The low turbidity, constant temperature, and chemical composition, and nearly overall absence of oxygen are some of the most characteristic features of groundwater. Groundwater circulation with the appearance of pollutants and various pollutants may have extreme variations in the composition. In addition, microbiologically, floodwaters are often very pure.

Movement:-

Groundwater is in continuous movements, although the rates of movement are generally slower than in a stream because it needs to cross the complex passages between rocks' free spaces. Due to the pulling of weight, the first groundwater is descending. But it can also go up, as it flows from higher pressures to lower pressures.

Discharges and velocity:-

Depending on the rock permeability and the hydraulic gradient, the rates at which groundwater moves through the saturated area. The hydraulic gradient is the height difference divided by the distance from the water table between two points.

Springs and wells:-

Spring is an area on the earth's surface, where the water table crosses the surface and water flows from the earth. Springs occur when a waterproof rock (known as an aquiclude) crosses a permeable rock containing groundwater (an aquifer). Springs occur closely linked to the geology of an area.

A well is a human-made hole that has been excavated or boiled deep enough to cross the water table. The water fills the open space to the water table level and can be pulled out by the bucket or pumping if it was dug under the water table.

Some of the most typical characteristics of groundwater are weak turbidity, a constant temperature and chemical composition and almost overall absence of oxygen. Circulating groundwater can have extreme variation in the composition with the appearance of pollutants and various contaminants.

¿Por qué los países pobres muchas veces protestan contra la liberación del comercio internacional?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Generalmente, los países pobres tienen monedas muy devaluadas frente a las monedas de referencia, como lo son el dólar o el euro. Por lo tanto, los costos de producción propia de estos países se encarece, pues necesitan de grandes cantidades de su moneda para poder abastecerse de los insumos necesarios para producir los bienes que necesitan para destinarlos al comercio exterior.

En cambio, los países con economías grandes y estables poseen monedas competitivas, con lo cual sus costos de producción suelen ser menores, es decir, representan un esfuerzo menor que el de los países pobres.

Por lo tanto, en caso de una apertura comercial, como un tratado de libre comercio que suprima los aranceles a las importaciones y exportaciones, los productos de los países más ricos (que son más baratos de producir y por ende más baratos en su precio final) serían absolutamente dominantes sobre los productos de los países pobres, que carecerían de competitividad en razón de precios.

Un claro ejemplo se da respecto de China, cuya producción en serie de productos tecnológicos inunda los mercados mundiales, quitándole posibilidades de competitividad a países con menos desarrollo industrial.

Para evitar esta situación, muchos países y bloques comerciales imponen aranceles para equiparar precios entre estos países y los países más competitivos.
