Question

How would a drought affect water quality factors in the stream? Include at least four factors in your answer.​

Answer 1

Water flow and volume decreases during drought typically led to increased salinity due to reduced dilution and concentration of mass. Temperature increases and enhanced stratification occurred during drought in some systems due to air temperature increases and longer hydraulic residence times.

Examples of drought impacts on society include anxiety or depression about economic losses, conflicts when there is not enough water, reduced incomes, fewer recreational activities, higher incidents of heat stroke, and even loss of human life. Drought conditions can also provide a substantial increase in wildfire risk.
