Atmospheric analysis

What are the impacts of geothermal energy generation activities on water temperatures?

What are the potential sources of chemical contamination from geothermal energy generation activities?

How may thermal energy generation activities influence water resources?

Generating electricity creates a lot of wasted energy in the form of heat, which then needs to be cooled before it can be discharged into the environment.

What are the potential influences of hydro-dam activities on riparian vegetation?

How may hydro-dams influence sediments in waterways?

How do hydro-dams potentially influence water flows?
