Fiumelatte

Fiumelatte is a waterway in northern Italy. It streams from a depression in the Grigna into Lake Como, only south of Varenna, it has a rough length of 250 m (820 ft). The name Fiumelatte, formed from fiume (Italian for "waterway") and latte ("milk"), is because of the smooth white shade of its water. One of the stream's eccentricities is its yearly discontinuity: it as a rule dries amidst October to return in the second 50% of March; in this manner it has been given the handle Fiume delle due Madonne ("River of the two Madonnas"), insinuating the celebrations of Annunciation (March 25) and Madonna del Rosario (October 7). This wonder could suggest that the waterway is the vent of an unexplored underground pit in the Grigna, which gets occasionally filled.

The waterway is said by the name Fiumelaccio in Leonardo da Vinci's Atlantic Codex:

It's the Fiumelaccio, which falls high from more than 100 ells from the vein where it is conceived, straight down on the lake, with boundless hubbub and commotion.

Fiumelatte

Fiumelatte is a waterway in northern Italy. It streams from a hole in the Grigna into Lake Como, only south of Varenna, it has a rough length of 250 m (820 ft). The name Fiumelatte, made from fiume (Italian for "stream") and latte ("milk"), is because of the smooth white shade of its water. One of the waterway's quirks is its yearly irregularity: it for the most part dries amidst October to return in the second 50% of March; in this way it has been given the handle Fiume delle due Madonne ("River of the two Madonnas"), suggesting the merriments of Annunciation (March 25) and Madonna del Rosario (October 7). This wonder could suggest that the waterway is the vent of an unexplored underground hole in the Grigna, which gets intermittently filled.

The waterway is specified by the name Fiumelaccio in Leonardo da Vinci's Atlantic Codex:

It's the Fiumelaccio, which falls high from more than 100 ells from the vein where it is conceived, straight down on the lake, with boundless turmoil and clamor.

The Ombla

The Ombla is a short stream in Croatia, upper east of Dubrovnik. Its course is roughly 30 meters (98 feet) long, and it discharges into the Rijeka Dubrovačka embayment of the Adriatic Sea close Komolac in Dubrovnik-Neretva County. Rijeka Dubrovačka is really a ria, an overflowed stream valley framed through changes in ocean surface rise on a geologic time scale. The waterway ascends as a karst spring sustained by groundwater renewed by Trebišnjica, which is an influent stream streaming in Popovo Polje, in the prompt hinterland of the Ombla. The rise contrast between the stream's source and its mouth is a little more than 2 meters (6 feet 7 inches). The normal release of the stream is 24.1 cubic meters (850 cubic feet) every second. The waste bowl of the Ombla envelops 600 square kilometers (230 square miles) and, other than the short surface course, incorporates just groundwater stream.

The Ombla is utilized as a wellspring of drinking water for Dubrovnik's water supply system, and development of a hydroelectric force plant has been gotten ready for as long as two decades. Starting 2012, the arrangements involve development of a subsurface store and a 68 megawatt power plant. The arrangement started contention in the midst of questions raised regarding ecological assurance and biodiversity administration, specialized and budgetary attainability, and procedural issues identified with the undertaking. A specific concern communicated was that the underground repository may trigger quakes.
