In this report, the recommendation will justify which proposal will be the best option for the Gold Coast and the future management of the Spit. The most beneficial option for the Spit is proposal 1. The conservation of the Spit will be a great asset towards the Gold Coast. The project will benefit the Gold Coast; the plan has many key positive social, economic and environmental aspects that support the Spit while also maximizing the interest of the community.…
To sum it all up, on the Venice/Casperson field trip my group were investigating erosion in beaches like Casperson. To get our data, first we made a erosion barrier using dead leaves, sand, and palms, next we made 3 small castles , 3 medium castles and 3 large castles. Then we measured the height and mass, continuing on we took down the barrier while Daniella was ready to use her stopwatch. Last we started the stopwatch and Blair took a movie of the sand castles being washed out by the waves. At the end, our hypothesis was disapproved in this experiment because according to our data it took longest for the waves to weather down the tall sand castle while it was easier for the waves to take down the small sandcastle.…
Wei Lin Professor Grekul TA Britt MacKenzie-Dale English 153 15 March 2018 The Sustained Trauma: An Analysis of Eden Robinson’s Monkey Beach In Eden Robinson’s novel Monkey Beach, the author reveals the intergenerational trauma over the indigenous community, Haisla. Lisamarie, as well as her peers, is a victim of intergenerational trauma that is passed from one generation to another. The older generations of the family suffer directly from the colonialization which left them incurable scars, and consequently have a negative impact on the young.…
A dventure, fun, relaxation…you’ll find it all on Alabama’s white-sand beaches. For years, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach remained a little-known vacation treasure, but more and more families are discovering the 32 miles of soft sand and clear waters that lace the edges of Alabama--situated between Mobile, Ala. and Pensacola, Fla., and bordered by the Gulf of Mexico to the south, Mobile Bay to the west, and Perdido Bay to the east. There’s no better way to unwind from everyday life than spending your days building sandcastles and soaking up the sun. Seagulls singing, waves crashing, children laughing; it’s everything you need to discover a whole new state of relaxation. What to Do & See A gendas are for work, the beach is for play.…
] You may be wondering what I'm going to write about, right? Well, let me tell you that you gotta the whole ride ahead of you! Trust me you'll enjoy it! So I will be describing Indiana Beach to you if you didn't already know it is an amusement park. One of the reasons I love it so much is it is a great place for a family to get together and hang out!…

Article 1: Coastal erosion and the ban on hard structures In this article it mainly talks about the controversy and problems with coastal erosion and the ban on hard structures. A rule was put into place to help preserve the beaches. People are helping to contribute to the coastline and its problems. Erosion is an easy thing to notice when at the beach.…
Erosion is the geological process in which Earth's surface is worn down by natural forces like running water, wind, glaciers and waves. Erosion is a key factor in the formation of beaches because erosion moves sediment (sand) from one location to another. There are three major types of coastal erosion; hydraulic action, corrosion and corrosion. Hydraulic action is when waves crashing against a headland causes erosion. Waves enter cracks in the rock and air is compressed into the crack by the force of the water being pushed by the wave.…
The beach are not separated environments, as they receive energy and material, process these inputs, and consequently may lose them as an output. This physical process which combine the inputs, outputs and interactions that effect could be determined in a system that acts together in shaping the coastal morphology. Variations in inputs could cause modification in the physical environment, for example, an increase in wave energy may enhance beach erosion, or a decrease in nutrients may limit biological efficiency, so that demonstrating all natural coastal operations are interlinked in certain way or altogether. The beach processes are greatly influenced by the physical changes that combines multi-parameters not only from the ocean but also the…
Unlike Palm Beach, Southport Spit predominately sits on native reserve. The width of Palm Beach and Southport Spit from the water’s edge to fore dune was 37 meters and 40 meters (table 4). The average wave height at Palm Beach and Southport Spit was 0.6 meters. These waves transport, deposit and erode materials such as sediment and sand, dynamically changing the shape of the coastline overtime. Currumbin Creek flows water through to Palm Beach.…
While being at the beach, I love to hear the sound of the tides, get the feeling of a light breeze, have a smell of the ocean water, listen to the call of the seagulls, and feel the sand, beneath my feet. Going to the beach and experiencing all of these senses, gives me a significant relief of relaxation. While reading Raymond A. Foss ' “Beach Sand,” I can visually experience all of these relaxing sensations. As Foss uses the poetic devices of imagery, tone,…
Annie Dillard makes the use of imagery evident through the similes and metaphors, but also when she is describing the scenery of the Hollins pond in the third…
The beach was my favorite song. The gull’s obnoxious caws as they flew overhead hunting for snappers, the toddlers laughing at the mischievous waves that grazed their unexpecting toes, the running dialogue and staccato beats of laughter that danced between me and my friends: every sound was a note in the ever-familiar symphony of the bay. When I was here, the rest of the world seemed strikingly bleak. Nothing could compare to the rickety green dock called my name, the soft sand that warmed my tanned skin, and the cool salty water that never failed lure me in as if I was a lost mermaid returning home.…
Sitting on the shore of a beach you would expect a lot of sand, on this beach there is a lot of rocks and small pebbles which does make it tough to walk on as I feel my shoes fill slowly with the coarse mix of sand and rock. Looking around there are many people with dogs, most off leashes. I can hear them barking at each other and doing their business on the beach with their owners just burying it in the sand. The strong odor of the seaweed is very heavy in the breeze, and it is strung all over the beach. There is so much in fact that the taste of it is stuck in my mouth, which makes my stomach turn a bit.…
According to researchers at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh “The levels of stress in women has increased by 18% and 28% for men from 1983 to 2009” (as cited in Jayson, 2012). Stress has become part and parcel of our lives, stress is not always bad on a person although, if there is too much stress present, it can have damaging effects on a person’s psyche. The best way to combat stress is to take a well-deserved vacation. Since the levels of stress have increased, society needs a break from their stressful lives and by taking a vacation, they can have some time to relax and become more energized when they return from their vacations. After deciding to take a vacation, now comes the question of where to go?…
