1-How has flooding impacted the removal of top soil and what effect will this have
on future crop production?
2-The link between land use and flood risk?
-Removal of trees--> Higher flood risk.
3-How does the size/composition of the river basin's sediments influence potential
flood risk?
4-Boscastle Flash Flood?
-How successful were the strategies at preventing future floods?
Physical Geography
Research of Rivers
- Ideal study area- location for conducting investigation/fieldwork
- Hand drawn map with annotations
- Two different seasonal outputs ie summer/winter or spring/autumn
- Processes
- Eutrophication
Primary Data collection:
Qualitative
- Photography
- Drawings- perceptual data
- Surveys, ie asking locals if it affects their water supply at their home/alternative form
of accommodation- filter system is satisfactory/poor? Water quality?
Quantitative
-Numerical data: considerations on pollution
- pH: acidic
- Phosphates/nitrates (pollution)
-Chemistry- chemicals contained within the water medium
-Biology- organisms contained within the water medium
