Dwayne Johnson is reputably known for his masculine body and his good looks. The movie Baywatch has been a classic beach themed show from the 90’s. In my opinion, the…

Before the storm, the shore was a graceful arc of sand, glittering under the summer sun, a place for a serene ocean to lap. A fleeting flurry of sand waves rolled in with a soothing swish. Every few steps lay a shell, a treasure of the aquatic world just out of reach. The small, wet pebbles that lined the beach sparkled in the bright light of the day. I reached down to pick one up, running my finger over its smooth surface. It was curved perfectly, with no sharp edges or jagged bends. I swung my…

“Up, up,” My sister calls as she pats the brown leather seat of my mom’s car. My dog is coming with us to the beach, a rare occasion, for Guinness isn’t the most trained of dogs. We are going to the Nob, a secluded beach on the edge of Woods Hole, perfect for a morning trip and a private swim. As Guinness jumps onto the Captain’s chair, he rustles the rocks of our driveway, a new addition to our summer home. My brothers and sisters are already in the car, waiting with their bathing suits on, and…

To take advantage of this, pirates would ransack ships that would accidently hit sand bars. When you believe you know it all or haven’t researched a certain topic, there’s always something new you’ll learn about yourself or the place you’re in. No matter if it’s an event that will happen or in the past, this world is…

He liked the little plan he had, Isaac slowly walked away from his house, moving towards the beach. He wanted to be completely quiet, not alerting anyone in the area. He looked back at his small turquoise house, before continuing on. Isaac looked at the houses in the neighborhood seeing, differences in the structures and the colors. It felt like each house had their own personality. Isaac liked that it was easy to tell the houses apart, while the houses in Vircorden town had very little…

and don’t kick me.” Raven, in all her hideous warty wonder, climbed onto Aragon’s back. Mason and I scramble up behind her. The burning sand quivered as the dragon picked his way to the top of the highest Plateau and stopped at the summit, which gave us an unrivaled view of the terrain. A patchwork of Barrel cactus speckled the sand and spread across sand dunes that rose away to meet lonely flat-topped mesa with steep sides, where the sun was casting its first long plum and russet shadows…

I was ecstatic to be completely stress-free with nothing and no one to bother me. I could stay there as long as I liked, no one would miss me and no one would come looking for me. I had an overwhelming desire to discover everything about the island right then. Was there anyone living there? I hoped not, I came here to get away from civilisation. Was it really an island? From what I could see, it was, but it could be part of a mainland. How big was it? I wanted…

A detailed description of soil locations, textures and physio-chemical properties can be found in Sections 2.3.1(page 41) and 3.3.1(page 56). We selected four types of soils out of seven types of soils, namely MGA, KBA, TAA and DUA. Key soil characterisation of these four soils is summarised in Table 4.2. The reason why these four types of soils were chosen for this chapter was that they had distinct soil parameters in terms of total organic carbon (TOC), Fe oxide, Al oxide, pH which have been…
