The area extends into Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. “The terrain is rolling with lower, wetter bottomlands that grow hardwood trees such as elm, mesquite and ash. This region is home to a variety of plants and animals that like woodlands and shorelines.” (Texas Parks and wildlife, n.d.) The major rivers in this area are the Sabine, Cypress, Sulpher, and Red. The major aquifer is the Carrizo-Wilcox. And the land area of the Pineywoods is 23,500 square miles. “Regional average rainfall for the area is 40-52 in./yr. and the reagional average net evaporation rate is 16-32 inches.” (Texas Parks and wildlife, n.d.) “The average temperature in the Pineywood’s region can range beteween 36(F) in the winter to upwards of 94(F0 in the summer.” (unknown,

Pickle Lake, Ontario is located in the Canadian Shield landform region. This landform region is the largest region in all of Canada and was formed over 4 billion years ago. This is where most of the metallic minerals are found and there are also igneous and metamorphic rocks found here. It was formed by many different effects, one way was when the molten rock cooled it formed igneous rock creating the Shield. Another one was minerals separated into layers according to their density and then the Shield rock cooled. Then the main one is glaciation and erosion which is/was the cause of most landform creation. There are many physical descriptions of the Canadian Shield first, is there are many small lakes formed by glaciers. Next, there are also
With the changes coming from global warming and increased greenhouse gasses, there will be many impacts to Texas over the coming decades. One of these impacts is the effect on our water resources. Texas’ main source of fresh water is precipitation, coming almost completely from rainfall. With temperatures rising and with an expectation that precipitation levels will most likely drop in coming years, this combination will put great stress on our water reservoirs. If we continue our current usage rates of water and if recent climate changes continue to persist then we will see a huge decrease in our water reservoirs. Also, given that we are in a drought, it appears that conditions are getting worse every year, posing a serious problem for the future if this issue is not addressed now.
It was a cold day in ‘Lake Abraham’.The water was frozen.People were asking ‘why are bubbles under the ice’.Until a photographer name Darwin wiggett said ‘don’t get to close.Why ask the people,Darwin said ‘you wouldn't want to be close to one if it popped.The ice bubbles can possible cause death,and burn your skin.
Last but not the least significant stop is Fishing Bridge. Original bridge was built as a slightly different alignment than the current rough corduroy bridge plank bridge in 1902. Existing bridge was built in 1937. Fishing Bridge is historically very popular place for fishing. Fishing from the bridge was quite good, due to the fact that this is a major cutthroat trout spawning area. Because of the population decline of cruelty (part, the result of this practice) is, however, the bridge was closed to fishing in 1973. Since then, it has become a popular place to observe fish.

The Brazos River emerges at the convergence of Double Mountain Fork and Salt Fork near the east boundary of Stonewall County. It runs 840 miles through Texas to its mouth on the Gulf of Mexico (The Official Website of the State of Texas, n.d). It is the longest river in Texas, and it has the greatest discharge. There are several watersheds along its course as shown on the map above. I am going to deal with the Bosque River Watershed.
With a major drought happening all across Texas, water rights are becoming a major priority. Water rights in Texas are a huge issue today especially with our climate changing the way it has in the past few years. There are two types of water rights in Texas, groundwater and surface water. Groundwater belongs to the landowner and is governed by the rule of capture. The rule of capture grants landowners the right to capture the water beneath their property but, they do not own the water but, have the right to pump and capture the water. On the other hand, surface water belongs to the state of Texas and can only be used by the landowner with the state’s permission.
