MAKING CONNECTIONS

28 Members of the EU With their capital cities

What is the EU? This is the EU flag

1. The European Union is a group of countries whose governments work together. 2. It's a bit like a club. To join you have to agree to follow the rules and in return you get certain benefits. 3. Each country has to pay money to be a member. They mostly do this through taxes. 4. Countries join because they think that they will benefit from the changes the EU makes. Also 5. The EU uses the money to change the way people live and do business in Europe... What is the European Union?

RIVERS AND FLOODS

Catchment (the area from which water drains into a particular drainage basin) Tributary (a river which joins a larger river) Confluence (the point at which two rivers join) Watershed (the boundary dividing one drainage basin from another)

A flood happens when a river overflows its banks However, a flood becomes a problem when the water threatens property and/or life. bankfull discharge Meander cross section What is a flood?

Why do rivers flood? Physical FactorsHuman Factors Clay soil

‘Solutions’ to flooding Plant trees (increase evapotranspiration - this reduces the amount of water that reaches the river) reduces the likelihood of future flooding reduces the impact of future floods Concrete beds and banks (increase the velocity of the river) Widen and deepen channel (to increase the capacity of the river) Floodplain Zoning Flood relief channels (these increase the capacity of the river by creating more channels) Dams (these control the flow of the water in the upper course and thus reduce flooding. e.g. Donzere on the Rhone) Flood warning systems
