-Aquifers -Springs -Ponds -Lakes -Creeks/Streams -Rivers -Wetlands Makes up < 3 % of water on earth

o Dissolved Oxygen o Minerals and Nutrients o Species Diversity

Zones: 1. Littoral 2. Photic 3. Benthic Plankton: 1.Zooplankton 2.Phytoplankton ⃪ ⃪ Decomposers

An increase in aquatic plants or alga due to an increase in nutrients.

Stream Order:

1,438 miles of navigable channels 77,000 miles of rivers and streams 563,000 acres of lakes, ponds, reservoirs 33.5 trillion gallons of water flow through river systems. 16 major locks and dams on 6 river systems

What impact are these dams having on this creek system? Shoal Creek Accumulation of water and habitat division.

Extensive pollution: -Industrial -Agricultural -pesticides -animal waste -Household waste -septic tanks -Oil spills -Nuclear waste

Because the final consumers of water are... Humans
