The Australian coastline is a dynamic environment, dominated by ocean processes, the movement of sediments, and presence of marine ecosystems. Understanding of coastal process is required to manage while increasing demand humans place on coast.

Natural forces and the development boom are having serious implications on the landscape, flora and fauna of the Big Bonanza Coast. Erosion is when soil is broken down by natural forces over time and erosion usually happens in three actions - soil detachment, movement and disposition. Water erosion effects the Big Bonanza Coast the most. When it rains or water hits the beach or dunes, the drops break down the soil. The bigger the storm, the larger the erosion potential. The loss of sand on 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…

Challenges are what makes life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. “A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor.” As I stepped out the door, slowly and resentfully I walked down the staircase, then suddenly turned to look at the house which I grew up in. A part of me was agitated to see the new place I was going to to further my education and another part was discouraged to leave my friends, an intimate surrounding and most importantly, remembering that I was going to be…

Moreover, the way they spend their time in a developed country like Canada is differently than in a developing country such as Bangladesh. Secondly, while living in a developed country these individuals suffer a heavy workload for motivational reasons; whereas an individual in a developing country suffers for survival. Therefore, in my…

In his work, “Lonely Places,” Pico Iyer depicts a unique outlook of several “lonely places” where are…
