The Nile River is 4,184 mi. long, and flows through Egypt, Africa. Another extremely large river is the Amazon. The Amazon River is incredibly huge and is the largest river by volume. It is located in Peru and Brazil.

Therefore, there are many variations of their climates. In most areas, a Fresh Water River has four seasons. But if the river is by the Equator, or close to the poles, that would really change their climate to either very hot, or very cold. Some rivers only have two types of seasons, a wet one and a dry one, or a cool one and a warm one. The precipitation that a Fresh Water River gets, varies from river to river. The Amazon has a yearly rainfall of 203.2 centimeters. Other rivers may have less, or more, depending on their location. The temperatures also vary among rivers, because some rivers are closer to the equator than others. For instance, the Nile River's average temperature during the rainy season is 21.1° C. In the dry season, the temperature is 85.5° C. Some rivers by mountains such as the Colorado, have rocky bottoms, and are a bit cooler than others, primarily because of the altitude, and the fact that mountains are covered in snow and ice. All rivers flow into a larger body of water, such as a lake. How fast it flows depends on what type of river it is. If it is a rather youthful river, such as the Trinity River, it would be fairly fast and lively. If it is a more mature river, like the Ohio River, it would flow at a medium speed. And lastly, if it was an old river, like the Indus River, it would flow pretty slowly. That is the complete climate of a Fresh Water River.

 * __River Location__**

<span style="color: rgb(61, 17, 238);">The Nile River, on the continent of Africa, is the longest river in the world. It flows 4,160 miles! The beginning of the Nile River is in the mountains of Uganda near Lake Victoria and in the deserts of Sudan. The mouth of the river is in the Mediterranean Sea on the shores of Egypt. The Nile River flows north. The Nile supplies water for the crops grown around the river and for hydroelectricity, or electric power. The second longest river in the world is the Amazon River on the continent of South America. The Amazon runs about 4,000 miles across South America from west to east. Its source is in the Andes mountains of Peru and its mouth is in the Atlantic Ocean. The Amazon travels through rain forests and land rich with oil, minerals, and valuable lumber. The Mississippi River is the longest river in the United States and in North America. The Missouri River is the main tributary of the Mississippi. Together, the two rivers form the third longest river in the world at 3,740 miles. The beginning of the Mississippi is in the lakes of Minnesota, and it flows south into the Gulf of Mexico. These rivers provide for transportation for the citizens. The fourth longest river in the world is in Siberia, Russia. The Ob River and its main tributary, the Irtysh River, are 3,460 miles long. The Ob flows north into the Arctic Ocean. Although it is frozen for half the year, the Ob is important for transportation and trade in Russia. The Yangtze Riveris the longest in Asia and the fifth longest in the world. begins its 3,450 miles in the mountains of Tibet and flows east to the East China Sea. People grow many crops on the banks of the Yangtze and travel the river for trade. Those rivers are just a few of the many Fresh Water Rivers, and where they're located.
