FLOODPLAINS

Area between dikes and the river bed.

You can draw a cross-section of a Dutch river.

NETHERLANDS BELOW SEALEVEL

WATER MEASURES

You can explain how climate change influences the amount of precipitation.

Climate change

• Warmer = more water vapour above sea = more moiste air above land

The west of the Netherlands is close to the sea, and salt water can easily penetrate inland during periods of drought.

EXERCISE 10

a. Two possible maps:

44A: The water from many catchment areas of international rivers flows into the Netherlands.

44B: Flood waves in the catchment area of the Rhine flow into the Netherlands.

b. after 5 days

c. From December until the end of April. In this period, the flow rate (the amount of water flowing at a particular point in the river) is highest.
