Coastal Erosion The beaches of North Carolina’s coastline face an ongoing threat: coastal erosion. Though mostly gradual and relatively unnoticeable over the course of a year or two‚ the rising sea level combined with a season of storms or hurricanes can cause anywhere from a few feet to hundreds of feet of this delicate shoreline being stripped away. Solutions are constantly being studied and discussed‚ but often‚ the solution to erosion can be just as damaging as erosion itself. While vacationers

The tides of dirty water The Tides Intro The location I chose for this project is the Charles River in Boston Massachusetts. The Charles River had been referred to as one of the dirtiest rivers in the US throughout history due to the Watertown Arsenal that had been full of gunpowder as well as other artilleries and firearms.

Corte Madera Scientific Report Abstract I examine how rising or falling tide can affect the water level of Corte Madera Salt Marsh in this report. The data is from Wednesday (June 19th) and Thursday (June 20th). My hypothesis is that tide and water level have positive relationship. From the result‚ I learn that the water level and tide have positive relationship. However‚ when tide changes its direction‚ the water level is likely to stay or little change. Introduction On June 19th‚ my

the main attractions of becoming self-employed is no longer having to work for somebody else‚ there are several disadvantages such as not being certain of having a regular income‚ because the income arrives in waves.

Force winds‚ waves‚ tides are changing the form of the beach. Sand dunes are getting blowed by tides making the sand dunes erode away. Creatures living at the beach must find cover from the hot and salty weather. Living tiny creatures hidden underneath the seaweed and shells‚ have buried into the sand to take

Waves‚ Currents‚ and Tides By Ben Houghton 1/28/09 My paper will focus on waves‚ currents‚ and tides. Our coast is affected greatly by these three things. My paper will explain how the waves‚ currents‚ and tides affect the people and environment of the coastal plain. Waves are a very powerful part of nature. They come in all sizes and they can be shaped many different ways. There are many parts to a wave. There is the crest‚ which is the highest point of the wave. The trough is the lowest point

Intertidal Zones The intertidal zone‚ also known as the littoral zone‚ in marine aquatic environments is the area of the foreshore and seabed that is exposed to the air at low tide and submerged at high tide‚ it is the area between tide marks. In the intertidal zone the most common organisms are small and most are relatively uncomplicated organisms. This is for a variety of reasons; firstly the supply of water that marine organisms require to survive is intermittent. Secondly‚ the wave
