Question 1

Human factors affecting water cycle in TRF

Answer 1

Deforestation (reduce interception and evaporation)
Afforestation (Increase soil stability
Farming techniques (temp forests to balance water cycle)
Tourism (water extraction for hotel resorts)

Question 2

Human factors affecting water cycle in Tundra

Answer 2

Oil and gas production (permafrost melting, increased run off)
Oil and gas management strategies (elevated pipelines, cold air circulated between them to prevent melting)

Question 3

TRF > Tundra in water cycle

Answer 3

Systems no longer in equilibrium
Stores or flows could be affected more
Scale of significance (e.g. local, national etc)
Directly or indirectly because of humans
Changes to water cycle as a whole

Deforestation increases overland flow and decreases infiltration/percolation
