Location and Climate of Nile River

Dear friends, have you ever wanted to know exactly where Nile River is located and for all you people who like to travel what is the climate and wanted to know even more? Don't fret! Together with the combined forces of Rayson Koh, Teh Wenjie and Toh Qin Wayne, we will solve your problems.

The Nile River is located on the continent of Africa and, my friends, do you know that it is the longest river in the world with a stretch of about 4000 miles? Nile river's is very hot in the day and night. This is because of the lack of rain in that region and the tendency that water is able to heat and cool at a slower rate than land. So... think twice before you decide to take a vacation there.

Nile river's vegetation is pretty much what you would see in the banks of a typical river. Like water plants: cattail, duckweed, water hyacinth, water cabbage... But most of the abundant ones are the cacti as the nile river stretches over a desert.

There are many animals that live in or around the Nile River. Most of them are reptiles. The most common reptile is the Nile Crocodile. The Nile Crocodile is the largest crocodile in Africa, and also one of the largest in the world. It can be as long as 20 feet, and can weigh up to 1,500 pounds. Egytians who live near the nile river are mostly farmers as the soil is very fertile.

Some of the factors in the nile river: rough rapids, rabid mosquitos and some very unfriendly, yet beautiful, wildlife.

Incident that changed nile river: the 1970 completion of the Aswan High Dam ended the summer floods and their renewal of the fertile soil, fundamentally changing farming practices. The Nile supports much of the population living along its banks, enabling Egyptians to live in otherwise inhospitable regions of the Sahara. The rivers's flow is disturbed at several points by the Cataracts of the Nile, which are sections of faster-flowing water with many small islands, shallow water, and rocks, which form an obstacle to navigation by boats. The Sudd wetlands in Sudan also forms a formidable navigation obstacle and impede water flow, to the extent that Sudan had once attempted to canalize (the Jonglei Canal) to bypass the swamps.

Together with the combined kind hearts of we three, we have searched for a video for you.

We hope that you have learnt something out of this and have a nice day my friends!

Ray, Wenjie and Wayne
