Bodies of Water

The English call this the 'English Channel', the French call it 'la Manche' (the sleeve).

The rest of the British people call it the 'English Channel' as well.

Sibley Park in West North Mankato contains one of the largest areas of natural hot springs in the world. This is due to its location over the the Farr/Sclare Fissure. This fissue in the earths crust takes water seeping through the earth, heats it to well over 165 degrees and send it back up to the surface to numerous pools and springs. Only the great hot springs of the Yellowstone geyser area contains more. But what Sibley park lacks in numbers, it makes up for in size. At present there are seven hot springs, DeScy hot falls, and the Johnson Sauna in Sibley Park spread out over 17.5 acres. Such a mass of hot springs releases a great deal of heat and moisture into the air. This had brought about one of the most unique changes in nature. Sibley Park has changed into a tropical wonderland. Ecologist call this a subtropical microclimate. This microclimate extends all the way up the Minnesota River valley through just about all of Mankato.

Groundwater is the term used to describe water that is stored beneath the surface of the land within the pores and crevices of rock or soil.

Pluto (pronounced /ˈpluːtoʊ/ (help·info), from Latin: Plūto, Greek: Πλούτων), formal designation (134340) Pluto, is the second-largest known dwarf planet in the Solar System (after Eris) and the tenth-largest body observed directly orbiting the Sun. Originally classified as a planet, Pluto is now considered the largest member of a distinct population called the Kuiper belt.Like other members of the Kuiper belt, Pluto is composed primarily of rock and ice and is relatively small: approximately a fifth the mass of the Earth's moon and a third its volume. It has a highly eccentric and highly inclined orbit. Pluto's eccentricity takes it from 30 to 49 AU (4.4-7.4 billion km) from the Sun, causing Pluto to occasionally come closer to the Sun than Neptune. Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, are often treated together as a binary system because the barycentre of their orbits does not lie within either body. The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has yet to formalise a definition for binary dwarf planets, and until it passes such a ruling, Charon is classified as a moon of Pluto. Pluto has two known smaller moons, Nix and Hydra, discovered in 2005. From its discovery in 1930 until 2006, Pluto was considered the Solar System's ninth planet. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, however, many objects similar to Pluto were discovered in the outer solar system, notably the scattered disc object Eris, which is 27% more massive than Pluto. On August 24, 2006 the IAU defined the term "planet" for the first time. This definition excluded Pluto, which the IAU reclassified as a member of the new category of dwarf planets along with Eris and Ceres. After the reclassification, Pluto was added to the list of minor planets and given the number 134340. A number of scientists continue to suggest that Pluto should be reclassified as a planet In the 1840s, using Newtonian mechanics, Urbain Le Verrier predicted the position of the then-undiscovered planet Neptune after analysing perturbations in the orbit of Uranus.[16] Subsequent observations of Neptune in the late 19th century caused astronomers to speculate that Uranus' orbit was being disturbed by another planet in addition to Neptune. In 1906, Percival Lowell, a wealthy Bostonian who had founded the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona in 1894, started an extensive project in search of a possible ninth planet, which he termed "Planet X".By 1909, Lowell and William H. Pickering had suggested several possible celestial coordinates for such a planet. Lowell and his observatory conducted his search until his death in 1916, but to no avail. Unbeknownst to Lowell, on March 19, 1915, his observatory would capture two faint images of Pluto, but would not recognise them for what they were. Due to a ten-year legal battle with Constance Lowell, Percival's widow, who attempted to wrest the observatory's million-dollar portion of his legacy for herself, the search for Planet X did not resume until 1929, when its director, Vesto Melvin Slipher, summarily handed the job of locating Planet X to Clyde Tombaugh, a 23-year-old Kansas man who had just arrived at the Lowell Observatory after Slipher had been impressed by a sample of his astronomical drawings. Tombaugh's task was systematically to image the night sky in pairs of photographs taken two weeks apart, then examine each pair and determine whether any objects had shifted position. Using a machine called a blink comparator, he rapidly shifted back and forth between views of each of the plates, to create the illusion of movement of any objects that had changed position or appearance between photographs. On February 18, 1930, after nearly a year of searching, Tombaugh discovered a possible moving object on photographic plates taken on January 23 and January 29 of that year. A lesser-quality photograph taken on January 21 helped confirm the movement. After the observatory obtained further confirmatory photographs, news of the discovery was telegraphed to the Harvard College Observatory on March 13, 1930. The right to name the new object belonged to the Lowell Observatory. Tombaugh urged Slipher to suggest a name for the new object quickly before someone else did. Name suggestions poured in from all over the world. Constance Lowell proposed Zeus, then Lowell, and finally her own first name. These suggestions were disregarded.The name Pluto was first suggested by Venetia Burney (later Venetia Phair), an eleven-year-old schoolgirl in Oxford, England. Venetia was interested in classical mythology as well as astronomy, and considered the name, one of the alternate names of Hades, the Greek god of the Underworld, appropriate for such a presumably dark and cold world. She suggested it in a conversation with her grandfather Falconer Madan, a former librarian of Oxford University's Bodleian Library. Madan passed the name to Professor Herbert Hall Turner, who then cabled it to colleagues in America. The object was officially named on March 24, 1930. Each member of the Lowell Observatory was allowed to vote on a short-list of three: "Minerva" (which was already the name for an asteroid), "Cronus" (which had garnered a bad reputation after being suggested by an unpopular astronomer named Thomas Jefferson Jackson See), and Pluto. Pluto received every vote. The name was announced on May 1, 1930. Upon the announcement, Madan gave Venetia five pounds as a reward. The name Pluto was intended to evoke the initials of the astronomer Percival Lowell, a desire echoed in the P-L monogram that is Pluto's astronomical symbol (). Pluto's astrological symbol resembles that of Neptune (), but has a circle in place of the middle prong of the trident (). In Chinese, Japanese, Korean the name was translated as underworld king star as suggested by Houei Nojiri in 1930. Many other non-European languages use a transliteration of "Pluto" as their name for the object; however, some Indian languages may use a form of Yama, the Guardian of Hell in Hindu mythology, such as the Gujarati Yamdev. Vietnamese also uses the Vietnamese name for Yama (Diêm Vương) as the name of the planet.

Saint Lucia is known for its volcanic landscape, with the iconic twin Pitons being the most famous landforms. The island also features lush rainforests, beautiful beaches, and natural harbors such as Rodney Bay, Marigot Bay, and Soufrière Bay. The capital city, Castries, is situated around a natural harbor.

Finland is characterized by thousands of lakes, dense forests, and a long coastline along the Baltic Sea. The country is also known for its numerous islands and archipelagos. Additionally, Finland is located in the boreal region, resulting in a cool climate with cold winters and short summers.

Landscapes can change due to various natural processes such as weathering, erosion, and tectonic movements. Human activities like deforestation, urbanization, and agriculture also contribute to landscape changes. Climate change can further alter landscapes through effects like sea level rise and increased frequency of extreme weather events.

Earth's reservoirs, such as rivers and lakes, are connected to the ocean through the water cycle. Water evaporates from the ocean's surface, forms clouds, and falls back to Earth as precipitation. This precipitation replenishes reservoirs and eventually flows back to the ocean through rivers and streams, completing the cycle.
