Water Erosion: Cause and Effect Directions:
For this project, you are given the opportunity to research and report on the cause and effect water erosion. The U. S. Geological Survey, http://www. usgs. gov, is a good source to begin your research.
Decide which display option you would prefer to use to display your research: slideshow or a tri-fold pamphlet (to be created using a word processing program).
Half of your project will discuss the cause and the other half will discuss the effect of water erosion.
This research should also include images of the erosion caused by water.
Part 1: Cause
Research the cause of water erosion by answering the following questions in complete sentences:

What is erosion?
How is erosion different than weathering?
What are the different types of water erosion?
What factors contribute to the rate of water erosion?
Part 2: Effect
Research the effect of the water erosion by answering the following questions, in complete sentences:

How are different climates affected by water erosion
What are the short-term effects on the land? (Flooding, costal dune erosion, etc.)
What are the long-term effects? (Desertification, loss of habitats, poor soil quality, etc.)
How does water erosion affect humans?
What are the short-term effects to humans? (Property damage, contaminated water, damage to crops, etc.)
What are the long-term effects to humans? (Health issues, transportation difficulties, etc.)
How can humans affect the rate of water erosion?
Part 3: Visuals
Create a display for your research: slideshow or a tri-fold pamphlet (to be created using a word processing program, or other program like Microsoft Publisher). The wording in your display should be in complete sentences.

Assignment Guidelines
Part 1:
Include your answers to questions 1-4 and any important facts about the cause and types of water erosion.

Part 2:
Include your answers to questions 1-7 and any important facts about the effects of water erosion through your research.

Part 3:
Include a visual display and any sources used when conducting your research
