Capitalization is used when an item is expected to be consumed over a long period of time. If a cost is capitalized, it is charged to expense over time through the use of amortization (for intangible assets) or depreciation (for tangible assets).
As water temperature rises, oxygen solubility decreases. On a cool summer night, a lakeâs temperature might be 60Â° F. At 100% air saturation, this lakeâs dissolved oxygen levels would be at 9.66 mg/L. When the sun rises and warms up the lake to 70Â° F, 100% air saturation should equate to 8.68 mg/L DO Â³.
Water from a melting glacier may be the source of a river. The snow and ice melt when the weather gets warmer. This forms a lake in front of the glacier. The water rushes into channels in the V-Shaped valley and eventually forms a river.
