    a) Another example of how humans have impacted the stimulus coastal environment is urban development of the coastline. The increased amount of people living near the coast has resulted in more residential construction along the coast and the development of sand dunes for 'prime' real estate and recreational purposes. This has had devastating effects on Australia’s coastline including the damaging effects on the sand dunes that protect the inland areas during times of high energy storms. The construction of buildings, including the marina in the stimulus photo, on top of sand dunes has also seen the increase in the rate of erosion and the loss of sand at several beaches. The marina and breakwater in the stimulus photo also clearly shows the…

    Spreading along the east and gulf coast of the United States of America are unique geologic formations known as barrier islands. Not only are these landforms neat to visit, but also they have the important role of protecting the coastline by reducing the effects storm winds and waves can have. Barrier Islands, like Assateague Island, can form in different ways, but all are constantly undergoing changes from various factors. The focus of this paper will be how barrier islands form and move, these islands’ importance, and the vulnerability of Assateague Island. First, a simple definition provided in the Merriam- Webster dictionary of a barrier island is “a long broad sandy island lying parallel to a shore that is built up by the action of waves,…

    The Australian South Sea Islanders (ASSI) have had a significant impact on Australia's development throughout 1863 to 1904. They made a positive economic contribution by working on sugar plantations and in the cotton farms . However due to the discriminating attitudes of the time, they were treated equivalent to slaves in relationships with the colonialists, and were unable to contribute much to Australian society at the time. South sea Islanders (SSI) are a group of people who come from 80 different pacific islands, mostly Vanuatu and Solomon Islands. The first to arrive to Australia were a small group of 67 people who signed a contract to work for 3 years with pay.…

    Living on the gulf coast in the United states means that one faces the threat of the damaging effects of a massive hurricane. This was no different for the people of Galveston, Texas in the beginning of the 20th century. Galveston is situated in the southeastern part of Texas and sits on what is called a barrier island. Barrier Island formation is strongly influenced by four main factors: a low seabed gradient, shallow water depth, abundant existing sediment supply, and a moderate-to-strong storm climate (Pilkey et al., 2009). Galveston Island is considered an active island, meaning that is currently experiencing ongoing destruction (Pilkey et al., 2009).…

    The movement of peoples in Australia between 1750 to 1810 was a very important time in the development of this country.

The Aboriginal clan that was located in that area were unhappy and tried to stop Cook and his crew from coming ashore. Cook's crew were greater in number and were able to overpower them.…

    The very first stop-motion animation was released in 1898 and was given the title The Humpty Dumpty Circus which featured dancing and acrobatic animals in a traveling circus. Even though stop-motion animation has never been as popular as traditional, there were still some films that gained popularity. One example of these popular films was the ever-popular Coraline. As stop-motion animation decreased in popularity, director Neil Gaiman created Coraline, the film that caused stop-motion to resurge in animation history. With its scary plot twists near the middle of the movie, Coraline was unintentionally created for audience members of all ages.…

    Torres Strait Islands are located between Australia and Papua New Guinea. There have been Torres Strait Islanders as one of the Australian Indigenous group. As another Australian Indigenous group, Aborigines, had been invaded and colonised their land, culture, and life from the eighteenth century, Torres Strait people also had similar, but different experiences through the history. For example, while Aboriginal people’s land settled by the British convicts from the 1788 of the First Fleet, Torres Strait people met white people differently from Aboriginal people, because they lived in islands, not Australia’s main land where Aboriginal people have lived. However, like the Aboriginal people, the Islanders had many foreign things were brought…
