Water rightWater right in water law is the right of a user to use water from a water source, e.g., a river, stream, pond or source of groundwater. In areas with plentiful water and few users, such systems are generally not complicated or contentious. In other areas, especially arid areas where irrigation is practiced, such systems are often the source of conflict, both legal and physical. Some systems treat surface water and ground water in the same manner, while others use different principles for each.
Drainage system (agriculture)An agricultural drainage system is a system by which water is drained on or in the soil to enhance agricultural production of crops. It may involve any combination of stormwater control, erosion control, and watertable control. While there are more than two types of drainage systems employed in agriculture, there are two main types: (1) surface drainage and (2) sub-surface drainage. Figure 1 classifies the various types of drainage systems. It shows the field (or internal) and the main (or external) systems.
Olympus MonsOlympus Mons, nom latin pour « mont Olympe », est un volcan bouclier de la planète Mars situé par , dans les quadrangles d'Amazonis et de Tharsis. C'est l'un des plus hauts reliefs connus du système solaire, culminant à au-dessus du niveau de référence martien ; des altitudes supérieures sont encore très souvent publiées, même sur des sites institutionnels américains tels ceux de la NASA, mais relèvent d'estimations du antérieures aux mesures de l'altimètre laser de Mars Global Surveyor (MOLA) et sont fondées sur un niveau de référence des altitudes martiennes alors inférieur de .
