RIVER IN A DESERT
This river flows through a dry desert but begins its journey in some nearby mountains where there is snow and rain water. The desert is dry and dusty. The dust in the river makes the water look cloudy. Streams and rivers drain water that has fallen from the ATMOSPHERE on to the land. Most rivers end up in the OCEAN. Have a look at image H6, RIVER IN A DESERT elsewhere in the regolith.com library and see how may differences you can spot.
