Research activity

Explore a case study which demonstrates how humans have impacted on hydrological processes. You might like to choose from one of the following areas to focus on:
- Agricultural water use
- Domestic water use
- Industrial water use.

For the area you have chosen, outline the ways water is used, and describe the ways that water use impacts on the quality and quantity of water available. Refer to at least one case study.

​Present your findings in a typed, document written in a report format. It should be between 800-1000 words in length. Include images, diagrams and maps, and a reference list.
