* Verses in RV 6. 61 indicate that the Sarasvati river originated in the hills or mountains ( giri ), where she " burst with her strong waves the ridges of the hills ( giri )".

The idea seems to have originated in a spoof history essay by Professor David Daube written for The Oxford Magazine in 1956, which was widely believed despite obvious improbabilities ( e. g., planning to cross River Severn by running the ram down a hill at speed, although the river is about 30 m ( 100 feet ) wide at this point ).

Dover ’ s name originated with its river – the River Dour, deriving from the Brythonic Dubrās (" the waters "), via its Latinized form of Dubris.

The Korean side of the river was heavily industrialized during Colonial Korea ( 1910 – 1945 ), and by 1945 almost 20 % of Imperial Japan's total industrial output originated in Korea.

It originated as military headgear in the 18th-century Serbian river flotilla.

A classic theory introduced by Pliny the Elder, was that the river originated from the Lagunas de Ruidera and divided into two branches: the Upper Guadiana () and the Guadiana, while separated by a subterranean course.

In these accounts two or more distinct stories seem to be mixed up together, but they probably originated in the popular belief that there was a natural subterranean communication between the river Alpheios and the well Arethusa.

According to an old Malay story, at the place near the Pahang River, on the opposite side of Kampung Kembahang, a large ' mahang ' tree fell across the river, thus the name ' Pahang ' originated.

Most of these roads mentioned originated as Lenni Lenape river trails along the Delaware River.

This main line originated in Cumberland, MD and followed the river to Pittsburgh and eventually Chicago, Il.

The line of the river to the east of Guthram appears to have originated as a sea bank but when sedimentation and fen enclosure caused the sea no longer to reach it, the river was led away along the bank so that the sea bank became one of river's banks instead.

It is possible to speculate that the village originated in serving the castle, which in turn, guarded the river approach to Ghent from the sea.

They originated in prehistoric times along jungle-clad river banks and in the wet foothills of monsoon regions.

The original settlement at the location of modern Liepāja was founded by Curonian fishermen of Piemare and was known by the name Līva ( from the name of the river Līva on which Liepāja was located, which in turn originated from the Livonian word Liiv meaning " sand ").

The oldest part is today's Talsi Street that originated at the river named Zvirgzdupite where there used to be a castle mound with a wooden castle.

Forest gardens originated in prehistoric times along jungle-clad river banks and in the wet foothills of monsoon regions.

One of the melodies, “ The flow of the River Eev ” as was said before is the river where the sound of khöömii was mythically supposed to have originated.

Whitton may have originated at the time the Romans crossed the Humber northward in 71 AD ; first as a military camp and then later as a Roman villa, overlooking the river, with its temple a few yards to the east, where the Church now stands.

The fire originated in the Price Brothers Company yard on the left shore of the Rimouski River and quickly crossed the river and spread throughout the city pushed by strong winds, destroying half of the city.

Evaporation, precipitation, river inflow and sea ice melting influence surface salinity values.

The new large river subsequently drained glacial lakes and melting glaciers at the end of the Ice Age.

The Svislach River, which flows across the city from the northwest to the southeast, is located in the urstromtal, an ancient river valley formed by water flowing from melting ice sheets at the end of the last Ice Age.

Navigation was difficult, as the river suffered from fierce currents, shallows, floods in spring and early summer when the ice was melting, and droughts in late summer.

From Northampton, the river flows along a broad valley, formed by the enormous amount of water released by the melting ice during the Ice Age, towards the east coast.

The frozen ground meant that meltwater from the melting ice sheet formed a large river flowing over the surface, eroding the valley that we see today.

A drainage basin is an extent or an area of land where surface water from rain and melting snow or ice converges to a single point, usually the exit of the basin, where the waters join another waterbody, such as a river, lake, reservoir, estuary, wetland, sea, or ocean.

The river is mostly fed by melting snow ( 60 – 70 %); the contribution of precipitation is relatively minor.

Where mixing occurs with fresh water runoff from river mouths or near melting glaciers, seawater can be substantially less saline.

The source of the river comes from melting snow high in the mountains, thus making it a very pure and clean source of water.

In Moscow, the river freezes occasionally ; during an unusually warm winter in 2006-2007, ice began melting on January 25.

The Buzău river has frequent flow fluctuations, especially in spring, when snow melting in the mountains enhance the water flow.

The river floods during the snow melting season in the spring.

On April 1, 1987, over of melting snow and of rain in the mountains forced the river to flood her banks.

The river consistently floods after spring melting ( frequently as high as 10, 000 cfs ) but is two to three magnitudes lower during the summer months.

The ice melting must have been rapid when it happened, digging deep river valleys.

A common situation has the two flanking glaciers melting to their respective ends before their courses can bring them back together ; the exceedingly rare analogy is a situation of the two branches of a river drying up, before the downstream tip of the island, by evaporation or absorption into the ground.

The dam keeps the flow of water in the Qu ' Appelle River relatively constant, as the Qu ' Appelle river used to dry up in many places every summer when the snow that fills in the South Saskatchewan River from the Rocky Mountains was done melting.

After the glacier started melting, a glacial lake was dammed up in the Mývatn depression until the glacier retreated from the present course of Laxá river.

According to Tchepalyga, global warming beginning from about 16, 000 BP caused the melting of the Scandinavia Ice Sheet, resulting in massive river discharge that flowed into the Caspian Sea, raising it to as much as above normal present-day levels.

The lowness in salinity has a lot to do with freshwater run off from sea ice melting, river runoff, and Pacific water flux and it is cold due to air-sea interactions while in the Arctic.

This is especially important at mid-latitudes and in mountain regions that depend on glacial runoff to replenish their river systems and groundwater supplies, making these areas increasingly vulnerable to water shortages over time ; an increase in temperature will initially result in a rapid rise in water melting from glaciers in the summer, followed by a retreat in glaciers and a decrease in the melt and consequently the water supply every year as the size of these glaciers get smaller and smaller.

Thermal expansion of water and increased melting of oceanic glaciers from an increase in temperature gives way to a rise in sea level, which can affect the fresh water supply of coastal areas as well ; as river mouths and deltas with higher salinity get pushed further inland, an intrusion of saltwater results in an increase of salinity in reservoirs and aquifers.

Water supply of the river is due to melting snow and summer rains.
