a Gabion Basket‚ has been erected at the southern end of the beach. This was constructed to protect the headland from further wave erosion and to ensure the pedestrian pathway stayed open for access to the headland. The wall is ____________metres long and was built in _________. * Processes affected: The main processes affected are wave refraction‚ wave erosion and coastal transportation. The waves refract around the headland and attack the sides of the headland. Because of the sea wall the

“Has there been shoreline accretion or erosion within the last year?” We studied and focused on the effect of human development on various specific locations on the Galveston beach. (Figure A below) My hypothesis was that there was severe accretion because of three reasons. Increased ship and harbor activity‚ lack of storms‚ and increasing pollution due to various cities along the coast. But how does human interference actually effect the natural erosion and accretion patterns over time? Understanding

that is going to be developed in close vicinity to Batu Caves. The project‚ if allowed to be carried out‚ can potentially cause the historical site to cave in much sooner than expected as the development may accelerate the limestone massif’s natural erosion process. The developer‚ Dolomite Industries‚ has been ordered to stop all construction-related works by the state government in order for soil testing to be conducted in the area. However‚ the results from the soil test would not prove the ground

in 2005. As a result of the growth of this city‚ the settlement of Balikpapan has expanded into a protected forest adjacent to it to prevent overcrowding in the city. On the other hand‚ deforestation brings harm to humans because it can lead to erosion of the topsoil and siltation of rivers near the deforested areas. The tree canopy of a rainforest provides shelter from rain for the soil‚ and the roots help hold the soil in place. This helps to prevent the topsoil from being washed away by the rain

this incredible rock structure was formed‚ the soundest theory relies on the environment that surrounds these rocks. The most powerful force on the Grand Canyon is erosion‚ primarily by water‚ according to The Seven Natural Wonders‚ a data base for the natural wonders of the world. The Colorado River is the culprit of this water erosion. Water has had the most impact on the Canyon because the Colorado River is always flowing. Water can have such a weighty impact because the Canyon is located in a

Landslide in a Village The rainstorm was over‚ I dashed out from the house to free myself. Spending hours in the house really made me feel bored rigid (extremely bored). I needed fresh air and so I went for a ride in the neighbourhood of Bukit Katil. I enjoyed cycling along the roads that ran parallel with rows of tall trees. The atmosphere around me was refreshingly cool. In the midst of admiring view‚ I caught the sight of a house that was partly buried in the mud. I halted (stop)
