Groundwater is the most effective erosion agent in what areas?
Groundwater erosion occurs most often in areas with an abundance of limestone and rainfall. This erosion can create large cavities and caves.
Can radar be used to detect the location and movement of precipitation?
Yes, and often is.
Where do homes with wells get their water?
Depending on location, water underground can be is a layer that can be tapped anywhere in that area. Other places, it is in a stream, much as it is above ground. You dig a hole and go a little past the level of the water, install a casing or pipe for collection and a smaller pipe inside of it to pump out the water. Shallow wells have the pump above ground and deep wells have it at the bottom of the hole. It is easier to push water up from the bottom than it is to pull it up.

Yes, and often is.
Is there precipitation in both a hurricane and tornado?
Hurricanes produce very heavy rain. Heavy rain and hail often accompany tornadoes, but the tornado itself does not produce precipitation.
What is groundwater contamination?
groundwater is water found below the ground. In many countries such as the UK, Nambia and Bangladesh, groundwater is a major water source for the population. Contamination of groundwater then, is the pollution of this water which often has major ramifications for a population. Major contaminants are nitrogenous fertilizers, and heavy metals found in the soil or rocks. Chalk and even certain types of plants have been used to combat groundwater contamination. Water hyacinth, for example, a plant found in Bangladesh was used to decrease the amounts of arsenic found in the groundwater in that country.
What is the term of water under the ground that is a primary source of drinking water?
Groundwater The depth at which soil pore spaces or fractures and voids in rock become completely saturated with water is called the water table. Groundwater is recharged from, and eventually flows to, the surface naturally. Groundwater is also often withdrawn for agricultural, municipal and industrial use by constructing and operating extraction wells.

What is fed by groundwater and often drained by seeps or springs?
Aquifers
Is it true that often groundwater must be pumped to the surface to be used?
it is false.
Is there any precipitation after tornadoes?
Often there is, though there is more often precipitation before a tornado. Whether or not their is depends on the structure of the storm system that produced the tornado.
How much precipitation is produced in a considerable tornado?
Tornadoes do not produce precipitation. Tornadoes are usually often accompanied by precipitation, but the amount is not related to the strength of the tornado.
How does temperature affect precipitation?
Precipitation does not directly affect the temperature. However, because there are often clouds that come with precipitation, this indirectly causes a drop in temperature.
What does it mean chance of precipitation?
Chance of precipitation means changes of rain. Precipitation is basically rain. This term is often used in hydrology and in weather updates etc.
What is the precipitation in a tornado?
Tornadoes themselves do not produce precipitation, but the storms that produce them usually do. Tornadoes are often accompanied by rain and hail.

What were the battlefields like in world war 2?
The battlefields during World War II were filled with death and destruction. Often, soldiers would fight from holes and trenches in the ground and they didn't have a lot to eat. It was often cold and precipitation fell on the heads of soldiers.
