Aftermath of a rainy day
This picture was taken on Monday 1/23/17 at 10:34 AM just outside Friday Hall. The photo itself is a collection of water in an area below sea level from Sunday night's rain. This picture greatly describes the ecological concept of weather. Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a give time. That night, it was cloudy and rainy compared to the bright and sunny sky seen in the background, and it all accumulated into this ditch. It also shows the concept of precipitation which takes many forms such as rain. While not shown explicitly, there was presence of small insects striding across the water, and their occupying the area shows the concept of population.The picture also demonstrates the connection the Lithosphere has with the Hydrosphere. With the Lithosphere consisting of dirt and soil and Hydrosphere consisting of all water in any form, the two interact because the soil absorbs the water, providing nutrients for planets rooting in the ground. But since soil can take up a finite amount of water, it can lead to overflows, such as shown.
