What makes him good is that he sounds confident. There is no hesitation or stuttering in his voice. Also, a picture shows me at a glance what it would take dozens of pages of a book to expound. Thus, his illustration is fantastic.
Great explanation. We have been drinking spring water for generations and never had any problems. We are so fortunate that we have this priceless spring water source in our land.
This is the worst video I have ever seen.! In Australia, the best springs are found at the top of the mountain, forced up by the weight of the mountain, so as the water falls through the porous rocks and cannot fall any longer, some of it will be pushed out to the side of the mountain as shown in this video and some will be pushed out at the top. The top water has been pushed out under pressure from the mountain above. In many instances the movement of the water upwards is aided by the anti-gravity lift caused by the water vortexing under pressure. See Viktor Shauberger from Austria.
Fascinating video, thankyou! I just went to Pamukkale in Turkey an was in awe. I was trying to understand how the water just came about, so so helpful.
but what about springs that come up from below? what creates the pressure to push cold water up out of aquifers when the water table is not above the spring output?
Springs are from far within the earth, depending on how you define "far". The "far" within the earth aquifers are supplied by rainwater exactly as this video describes.
Chiming in from the "Fountain City" Prattville Alabama. We have several public natural spring taps that flow 24/7. Everyone refills their jugs etc from the springs. Nestlés worst nitemare 👍
How long can springs last with little to no precipitation? Its amazing the amount of water that some of them gush out throughout an entire year.... its like it never ends.
@@oiyan-l1m that's a good question but maybe you need to ask it somewhere else maybe with other people on this bid or maybe even on vids about locating groundwater or drilling for Wells on people's property for fresh water ?
Evaporation does not defy gravity any more than a boat floating on the water does. H2O as a gas weighs less than the other gasses around, so the heavier molecules sink and H2O goes up. Same concept with a boat weighing less than the amount of water it displaces.
According to the previously mentioned facts, it is evidently that there are seasonal variations in the water temperature in all of these spring which depending u pon how direct the concat is between the groundwater and temperature of the atmosphere. We research known, genereally the standard varoition in the spring from 0 °C - 3°C with a mean value of 1,5 °C, where as the variations in the water temperature in the open streamflows in karst vary from 1 °C to 6°C with the mean value of standard deviation of 3 3° to 4°C. Thank you for helping us analysis of the water temperature of the karst springs of your own - traditional good, always!
I live on a Greek island just off the coast of Turkey and for a whole summer I had an argument with my father and some of his friends about the source of some springs on the island. There was (and still is) no way to convince them that it all comes from rain water. They said because the flow of water was so much, it has to come from places like Turkey, other islands and even Egypt! If they understood any English I would show them this video. Stubborn old men! Ha ha!
Iron Fist: Sorry to tell you, the old men may be correct in part. Rain water is not the only way water gets to the top of the hills, there are also geophysical reasons why water is displaced upwards to higher altitudes through thousands of miles of cavities formed for millions of years. Not all densities of soils are in the ordered the way presented in this video. Imagine hot waters trapped at very low altitudes over the sea level, all the soils surrounding them are solid rock except the lower volcanic channel they get the heat from and an upper channel shooting straight up to the top of your island. By the time it finds an escape almost at the top of that hill it is cool and filtered. There is your spring water that didn't come from rain Maybe not from Turkey or Egypt but from the china sea or maybe even from the waters that surround your island. 😳🤔
That isn't actually how most springs work, but never mind. Less than 10% of rain reaches the oceans as direct run off. Over 90% is absorbed into the ground, and will continue to slowly sink until it reaches an impermeable layer. Think of dripping water onto a sponge. The water that has reached the bottom of the sink forces water to the surface through fissures in the substrate by Archimedes Principle. Which is why in times of drought, most springs dry up as well.
My Great-grand mother and her husband homestead land in Dallas Co MO. They noticed a wet spot along a drainage , they damed up below that spot ,put in crawdads and then salt close to damed up spot the crawdads went looking for fresh water 💦 they opened the vain of water and then it is still with us today around 1854 to 2020.
But what about mountain creeks and springs? how does a spring that flows year round get water flowing from the top when there is no more uphill source?
I was just thinking about this . it seems no one can answer it properly . my guess is that it acts like a volcanoe . water builds up underground until one day it runneth over .. .. Thats just my logic , no science involved . I can't thibk of any other natural way that water infinitely flows from the top of a mountain .
I dont think anyone really knows. The explanations dont make since for the springs on my family farm. Through drought and evaporation its able to keep a large pond at a very consistent level.
Very nice thanks. QUESTION: I have a lake/pond say 500ft diameter 20ft deep, and the lake is fed by underground streams. If I were to drain the lake, then fill that lake with sand, would the pressure of the sand stop the water or would the water seep thru the sand trying reach its original level within the sand. I'm thinking of how construction companies level land that once had ponds. Thanks.
How do springs come up from below, though? Is it just something filling up like a cistern and thus an illusion? Or can geothermal activity be involved like with a geyser?
my q is, in dry season, some springs are still active and flow but as a weak stream.how these continuous water supply system works without any rainfall?
Ok, how about salty springs? We have a freshwater spring on our farm feeding a dam, 25 metres downhill from the dam is another spring that is 11.5 microsiemens /cm (7 parts per million) salt content, this flows out of the soil and down a creek line to the river, 600m away. Why is this stream salty? There is no salt in the paddock and the spring is 10m higher than the river.
The water is not always clean......sometimes there are caves that are open to the surface and the spring water passes through these caves.....critters sometimes access these caves and may make poopy in the water....never drink from a spring that is not tested.......
Ok, so you are saying a spring is really just rain water that is filtered down through the ground? How does it stay so active? Why has the one on my family farm able to create a fairly large pond and keep it at a consistent level and never stop flowing? Even when it has not rained for quite a long time. Something doesn't add up with this explanation. I think Springs are a little more complex than this video leads on.
What makes him good is that he sounds confident. There is no hesitation or stuttering in his voice. Also, a picture shows me at a glance what it would take dozens of pages of a book to expound. Thus, his illustration is fantastic.
You're such a great teacher. I wish I had teachers like you in school so I could have learned and enjoyed it better. God bless! 🌻

@@KingArthur5000 yall upside down anyways who gives a fuck abt australia
The good old days of chalk and a board. Nice, clear explanation.
This made it very clear - we have a spring in an otherwise dry place!!! Thank you for making it simple 👍🏼
Short, to the point, informative, easy to understand. Excellent.
This is the best explanation i've seen. Thank you so much!
Fascinating video, thankyou! I just went to Pamukkale in Turkey an was in awe. I was trying to understand how the water just came about, so so helpful.
Thank you so much for providing quality information about natural springs and the layers it pass through.
Thanks for this video! I will present very well in my seminar today!
but what about springs that come up from below? what creates the pressure to push cold water up out of aquifers when the water table is not above the spring output?
Yeah I was wondering too
Because what he's teaching is lies. All the fresh water come from The Great Deep below.
Very clear explanation with neat presentation Sir... Thank you so much

Clear and concise. Thank you!

Wonderful explanation. I just discovered one in my back yard
How long can springs last with little to no precipitation?
Its amazing the amount of water that some of them gush out throughout an entire year.... its like it never ends.
What can you do if you find a natural spring on your land that is flowing quite well
@@oiyan-l1m that's a good question but maybe you need to ask it somewhere else maybe with other people on this bid or maybe even on vids about locating groundwater or drilling for Wells on people's property for fresh water ?

Good explanation sir, can you clarify the small doubt , that is how to stop the water springs during the construction of building
According to the previously mentioned facts, it is evidently that there are seasonal variations in the water temperature in all of these spring which depending u pon how direct the concat is between the groundwater and temperature of the atmosphere.

Thank you very much for valuable information. I was eager to now about this topic since long.
One brilliant design of the greatest architect- God
Thank you for sharing these insights Sir .👋❤️
I didn't know about the impervious layer. Thanks!
Beautiful explanation
Wow this was a beautiful illustration.
Wowwww...very beautifully n neatly defined... superrb
thanks sir, i enjoyed everybit of this video....very clear and understandable lecture =D
that's why spring water is so valuable and tasty :)
Thanks for saving my geography grades

Impressive!
Thanks so much for the explanation...Great lesson!
Any damage to the spring if a pipe driven spring's water flow pressure is temporarily covered, blocked or closed for a week or two?

A major source of springs comes from underground rivers surface water springs will dry up mid summer and they can be dangerous to drink !
Thank you from Arkansas sir.
Clearly presented. Thank you

But what about mountain creeks and springs? how does a spring that flows year round get water flowing from the top when there is no more uphill source?
yeah I was going to ask the same thing
hydraulic pressure in the ground will actually push the water uphill underground to the spring outlet.
I was just thinking about this . it seems no one can answer it properly . my guess is that it acts like a volcanoe . water builds up underground until one day it runneth over .. .. Thats just my logic , no science involved . I can't thibk of any other natural way that water infinitely flows from the top of a mountain .
Reece he showed a catchment are in the Drawing . I hope that gets an Idea started .

No answer I think maybe you need to ask it on another channel probably one where they talk about what you're describing
Excellent just what i wanted to know.
40 dislikes booo.
Probably because it didnt play.
Is it posible to have a man Made spring? Like perhaps a pond on a hill that seeps down?
Great video, very informative.
Amazing 😻
Thanks sir

my q is, in dry season, some springs are still active and flow but as a weak stream.how these continuous water supply system works without any rainfall?
I mistakenly penetrated a spring with a ground rod and cannot get it to stop. Any recommendations on how to stop the water?
Thank you sir!
Amazing!
can springs go dry,if there is a draught for a long time?
That's a good question and I would like an answer also
Thank you.
can gold or gemstones be found in the spring?
Good presentation.
Does the spring shift if the water runs out too fast meaning it does not have the lower support of backup does it dry up
thanks for this information very helpful
i don't know why, but i always assumed springs form on top of mountains or hills, not on the side of them.
brilliant thank you
also many hindu temples are near mountain springs, a long with a forest and perhaps an artificial pond
awesome!!

Hello Steve
Was brilliant!!! But. Would have been interested to hear how the Solar & Wind generators worked. Didn't happen. Got a sermon instead!
Thanks! :-)
thanks!
Awesome
So how do you explain the water falls on the top of the very high mountain? How come that gravity take it on top?
You ever heard of rain?
The water is not always clean......sometimes there are caves that are open to the surface and the spring water passes through these caves.....critters sometimes access these caves and may make poopy in the water....never drink from a spring that is not tested.......

I have a spring in my propety and when a dry season hits the flow reduces until it dries completely
He's lying
Rain water impure ? Its almost like distilled water.
It doesn't work this way. Go study Victor Schauberger or more currently Daniel Vitalis. Springs are from far within the earth...
Cheers
ooo... Yes indeed the incredible Viktor Schauberger could have saved humanity from so many problems... if only we had listened.

Can’t it go down, pool and flow up once full?
thnkzzz sir
