It is an active volcano producing small eruptions approximately every 20-30 minutes (Stromboli, 2014). These small eruptions are called strombolian eruptions and are named after this volcano because it has been producing these type of eruptions for hundreds of years, while some believe these activities have been going on for at least 2000 years. The characteristics of a strombolian eruption is a

WATER CONFLICTS Water Supply Global water supplies are linked to three main physical factors: rivers, systems and geology. Hydrological cycle The hydrologic cycle begins with the evaporation of water from the surface of the ocean. As warm air is lifted, it cools and water vapour condenses to form clouds. Moisture is transported around the globe until it returns to the surface as precipitation. Once the water reaches the ground, one of two processes may occur: 1) some of the water may evaporate
