3) Filtration
• Large bits of debris lodge on reeds or stones as
they move along streambeds and they remain
caught until high waters wash them into
mainstream again. Small bits of organic matters
and inorganic clays and other sediments may be
filtered out by pebbles or rocks along the
streambed. A water percolates from the surface
In this photo taken by Canadian Peter Mark in the end of April, 2012, and
released on Wednesday, May 2, a Harley-Davidson motorbike lies on a beach
downward into groundwater aquifers, filtration
in Graham Island, western Canada. Japanese media say the motorcycle lost in of much more sophisticated type occurs. If the
last year's tsunami washed up on the island about 6,400 kilometers (4,000 soil layers are deep and fine enough, removal of
miles) away. The rusted bike was originally found by Mark in a large white suspended material is essentially complete by
container where its owner, Ikuo Yokoyama, had kept it. The container was
later washed away, leaving the motorbike half-buried. the time waters enters the aquifer.

4) Gas Transfer
• The transfer of gases into and out of water is an
important part of the natural purification
process. The replenishment of oxygen lost to
bacteria degradation of organic waste is
accomplished by the transfer of oxygen from the
air into the water. Conversely, gases evolved in
the water by chemical and biological processes
may be transferred from the water to the
atmosphere. Gas transfer is affected by
solubility (extent to which gas is soluble in
water) and transfer rate (rate at which
dissolution or release occurs)
