What type of rainfall happens in the upland area
Orographic
Frontal
- due to
Western
location
What is the annual
percipitaion
of the
upland
area
1200mm/year
Why is their high amounts of
run off
in the
upland
area
steep sided
V
shape
valleys
Why is their
limited
soil stores in the
upland
area
Thin
soil
and
bare
rock
Why are their
low
infiltration
rates in the
upland
area
low
permability
peaty
soil
What are the
infiltration rates
in the
upland area
1mm/hour
in
winter
5mm/hour
in
summer
What are the
manmade
stores of water in the upland area
Cow Green
Selet reservior
How much water do the
upland
manmade
water stores
hold
40 million
cubic meters
How does limited human development benefit the water cyclein upland areas
allows
interception
infiltaration
throughflow
How has
hill sheep farming
effect the
water stores
in
upland areas
extensive
deforestaion
reduced
interception
Where does the
lower course
lie
the
rain
shadow
of the
Pennies
How much
percipitaion
does the
lower course
recieve
650mm/year
How does the
low lying
flat floodplain
effect the
infiltraion
of the
lower course
encourages
infiltration
Why is their high
infiltraion
in the
lower course
Moderately
permable
clay
and
rich
soil
How much
percipition
does the
lower course
get
rural
areas -
20mm/hour
in
summer
4mm/hour
in
winter
4 times faster
than the upper course
What is the
Teeside
population
300,000
What is the
Darlington
population
100,000
What is their more of in the
lower course
and how does it effect transfers
more
impermable
surfaces
and
drainage channels
meaning
surface
run
off
to rivers (
Skerne
) happens quicker
Why does the
lower course
have
flatter
,
fertile
land
intensification
of
farming
-
arable
crop
farming
Why does
soil
compaction
happen in the lower course and how does it effect the
water cycle
use
of
machinery
leads to
soil
compaction
making the soil
less
permable
leading to more
surface
run
off
and
stores
How does the intesification of farming and urbanisation lead to
extensive
deforestion
which leads to less
interception
