QUESTION 1

What type of general drainage pattern best describes the foothill areas east of Chico, Los Molinos, and Richardson Springs?
A. Trellis
B. Deranged
C. Rectangular
D. Dendritic
E. Radial
F. Parallel
G. Annular

QUESTION 2
Take a clear picture (screen capture) of the table based on the on-campus field experiments (that shows the relationship of stream channel width and depth) and upload this image file to Blackboard Learn. You may choose to turn in a hard copy of the table above to your lab instructor by the deadline.

QUESTION 3
Draw a cross-sectional profile of the stream channel using Excel. Label both axes with appropriate units and give it a descriptive title. Take a screen capture and upload this image file to Blackboard Learn. You will earn zero points if you upload any file other than an image file.

QUESTION 4
Take a clear picture (screen capture) of the stream velocity (the orange peel method) table. Then, upload each image file to Blackboard Learn. You may choose to turn in hard copies of the tables and calculation above to your lab instructor by the deadline.

QUESTION 5
Take a clear picture (screen capture) of the stream velocity (stream flowmeter) table. Then, upload each image file to Blackboard Learn. You may choose to turn in hard copies of the tables and calculation above to your lab instructor by the deadline.

QUESTION 6
Take a clear picture (screen capture) of the section in which you calculated a discharge (Q) value. Then, upload each image file to Blackboard Learn. You may choose to turn in hard copies of the tables and calculation above to your lab instructor by the deadline.

QUESTION 7
The median discharge for Big Chico Creek in Bidwell Park is 30 cfs (cubic feet per second) in summer. 30 cfs = 0.85 cms (cubic meters per second). If there are 1000 liters in a cubic meter of water, how many liters of water will flow past Bidwell Park in one 24-hour day? Enter a numerical value only.

QUESTION 8
The average person in the US uses 757 liters of water per day. If we diverted all of the water flowing through Big Chico Creek in Bidwell Park (0.85 cms--based on the previous question) over a 24-hour period, how many people could Big Chico Creek supply with water? Enter a numerical value only.

QUESTION 9
Take a clear picture (screen capture) of the particle size (based on average velocity with Hjulstrom curve) table. Then, upload an image file to Blackboard Learn. You may choose to turn in hard copies of the tables and calculation above to your lab instructor by the deadline.

QUESTION 10
According to your observations (either in a fieldwork or in a video), you find _____ sizes of sediment as you go toward the deeper end of the stream. This is because the velocity of the stream flow is _____ there (compared to the shallower end).
A. smaller; faster
B. smaller; slower
C. larger; faster
D. larger; slower

QUESTION 11
Indian Fishery is a water body on the left bank (east side) of the Sacramento River near where West Sacramento Avenue joins River Road west of Chico. What is the term for this type of water body?
A. Point bar
B. Meander scar
C. Oxbow lake
D. Yazoo tributary

QUESTION 12
Look closely at the border between Butte County and Glenn County along the stretch of the Sacramento River between Indian Fishery and the Gianella Bridge (Highway 32). Along this stretch of the river, how many respective land areas seem to belong to the "wrong" county considering what side of the river channel they are on?
