  2. Jeju Samdasoo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeju_Samdasoo

    Jeju Samdasoo (Korean: 제주삼다수) is a brand of mineral water produced by Jeju province development corporation, manufactured by Kwangdong Pham. It is the only volcanic bedrock water in South Korea, and the plant is located in the Gyorae-ri, Jocheon-eup, Jeju City, Jeju Province. [1]

  3. Water clarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_clarity

    The term "water quality" more broadly refers to many characteristics of water, including temperature, dissolved oxygen, the amount of nutrients, or the presence of algal blooms. How clear the water appears is only one component of water quality. [1] [5] [47] An underwater ecosystem can have high water clarity yet low water quality, and vice versa.

  4. Bedrock river - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedrock_river

    The process that most affects a bedrock river is the suspended load. [2] Suspended load is the grains that are light enough to be carried in the water and do not contact the bed of the river unless there is an obstruction or topographic change in the bed. The way these particles erode a bedrock river is by contact with these obstructions.

  5. Channel pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_pattern

    Bedrock channels are composed entirely of compacted rock, with only patches of alluvium scattered throughout. Because the bedrock is constantly exposed it takes much less stream power to carve the channel. The hydraulic force of flowing water can push and pull detached joint blocks out of their initial position and roll or drag them downstream.

    Clearwater Lakes, 2013 image by NASA Earth Observatory. The Lac Wiyâshâkimî (the official name, in French, formerly Lac à l'Eau Claire, a calque of the lake's name, Wiyâšâkamî, in Northern East Cree, changed form of wâšâkamî or wâšekamî in more southerly Cree dialects), [citation needed] also called the Clearwater Lakes in English and Allait Qasigialingat by the Inuit, [3] [a ...

  7. Mica - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mica

    The platy texture acts as an anti-blocking, anti-sticking agent. Rubber mold lubricant accounted for 1.5% of the dry-ground mica used in 2008. As a rubber additive, mica reduces gas permeation and improves resiliency.

  8. Stream bed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_bed

    As the water flows downstream, different sized particles get sorted to different parts of a streambed as water velocity changes and sediment is transported, eroded and deposited on the streambed. [5] Deposition usually occurs on the inside of curves, where water velocity slows, and erosion occurs on the outside of stream curves, where velocity ...

  9. Color of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_water

    The same water in a smaller bucket looks only slightly cyan, [1] and observing the water at close range makes it appear colorless to the naked eye. The intrinsic color of liquid water may be demonstrated by looking at a white light source through a long pipe that is filled with purified water and closed at both ends with a transparent window.
