The earth is a dynamic, constantly changing planet, with many interrelated processes and cycles. Match the local action with the
immediate consequence and the two distant consequences that result.
Intensified landscape
erosion by water
Patterns of erosion and
deposition in the stream
channel change downstream
Copper and acid
contamination in runoff
water
Inadvertent steam-borne
sediments trapped at the
same time
Oversteepening of slopes
with open pit mining
Mining extensively for
resources, such as gold
and copper
Increased coastal erosion of
beaches because part of the
sediment supply from the
stream has been out off
Volcano erupting releases
water vapor and sulfur-rich
gasses and dust into the
atmosphere
Deadly landslides
Damming a river to create
a source of irrigation water
a hydroelectric power
Increased weathering
effects of rocks by water
Influences the amount of
sunlight reaching earth's
surface to heat it
