It is a pond that is designed, at a minimum, to retain and slow the flow of stormwater runoff so that solid pollutants, including sediments and trash, have an opportunity to settle out of the water column. Many are also designed such that the stormwater that is retained can infiltrate into the ground or pass through a wetland so chemical contaminants can be filtered out of the water, including metals, pesticides, and nutrients.
What else can I help you with?
Which body of water is most sensitive to fertilizer runoff?
Pond, because the water is stagnant.
Which is not a kind of surface water pond stream aquifer or runoff?
underground aquifers
What type of weather makes pond water deeper?
Rainfall can increase the water level of a pond, making it deeper. Heavy and prolonged rainfall can lead to runoff, which can fill up the pond quickly.
What is a drainage ditch?
Drainage ditches are a method of controlling runoff from streets and highways where curbs and storm drains are not used. They are most often a shallow trough dug in the ground beside and parallel to the road surface. They collect runoff from the road and direct it either to a retention pond or a natural body of water.
What is the recommended dosage and application method for the Tetra Pond Fish Treatment to effectively treat fish diseases in a pond?
The recommended dosage for Tetra Pond Fish Treatment to treat fish diseases in a pond is 5 ml per 200 liters of pond water. The treatment should be applied directly into the pond water and repeated after 7 days if necessary.
When runoff drains into a basin that has a rounded depression and maintains a stable amount of surface water on a daily basis it becomes a?
When runoff drains into a basin that has a rounded depression and maintains a stable amount of surface water on a daily basis, it becomes a pond. Pond typically refers to a small body of still water that is surrounded by land.
What does run-off mean?
Run off is where, say you lived on a farm and you have a little steep hill that leads to a pond. If you watered your plants some of the water you used would 'run off' down the hill and into the pond.
Why do ponds become stagnant in the summer?
If your pond isn't at least 20 ft. deep, at some point. It is almost a guarantee that the pond will need chemicals to help keep it clean. Shallow water, because of heat gain and lack of circulation and aeration and runoff and the fill around the pond; even the vegetation and animals can lead to problems.
What kind of pond has no dam and may be filled by surface runoff or groundwater?
Excavated pond. or "dug pond". They are harder to build because of earth removal. They are more resistant to collapse by erosion - no dam.
What is the solute and solvent of Pond water?
Solution of Pond Water= Oxygen + Water
Is pond water a pure substance or a mixture?
Pond water is not a pure substance.
How does a drainage system works in a man made pond?
A drainage system in a man-made pond works by managing water levels and preventing overflow or stagnation. It typically includes a network of pipes, drains, or channels that direct excess water away from the pond during heavy rainfall or runoff. Additionally, the system may incorporate an outlet structure, such as a spillway, that allows for controlled water release while maintaining a stable water level. This setup helps maintain water quality and prevents erosion or flooding in surrounding areas.
