Analyzing Poetry (the DFTT model): 1st reading – Just read the poem. Most of us have to read a poem multiple times to figure out the meaning. 2nd reading – DECODE: Try to figure out what is being said literally. What is happening in the poem? Start with the biggest‚ most obvious things first. When you decode a poem‚ translate it (paraphrase) into your own words. It’s probably better to decode it stanza by stanza‚ rather than line by line. Try to find any possible shifts in the poem‚

(Physical Component) Kutlo Thathe University Road Westville Private Bag X 5600 Durban 4000 210551705@stu.ukzn.ac.za Abstract This study was conducted at the Mpenjati Estaury which is located in Port Shepstone and lies along the south coast of Kwa-Zulu Natal. An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of water which is either permanently or periodically open to the sea and within which

terms of convenience however‚ as the extreme high and low levels of tide may only be reached at intervals a considerable number of years apart. Since many organisms that dwell on rocky shores are annuals‚ this is of no significance to them. Although zonation is related to tides‚ it is influenced by other factors (discussed below). Indeed‚ Stephenson and Stephenson (1972) note‚ “Zonation‚ although undoubtedly related to tides‚ is not directly caused by them.” Lewis (1964) emphasises that restricting

1.0 Introduction Last term the Biology and Geography class went to Hastings Point‚ New South Wales to visit three ecosystems found in the area‚ such as- mangroves‚ sand dunes and rocky shores. Hasting Points is the smallest coastal settlement of Tweed Shire. The hamlet is nestled between the ocean on its east and a delicate estuary on its west. This report will focus on the unique coastal habitats of Hasting Points and the various issues that challenge the sustainability of mangroves surrounding

Also an ancient submerged forest is visible at low tide along the beach‚ where stumps of oak‚ pine‚ birch‚ willow and hazel can be seen. Also the Ynyslas sand dunes are part of the Dyfi National Reserve which is one of the only 234 national nature reserves in the UK. It is important that protection from

Abstract This investigation examined the preferred habitat of the prawn Alope spinifrons for the purpose of keeping the prawn in optimum conditions in captivity. The survey took place on shoreline between Matapouri Bay and Wooleys ’ Bay on the Tutukaka Coast. A. spinifrons populations were surveyed‚ water chemistry‚ temperature and depth were noted as well as substrate type and flora and fauna sharing the area. A. spinifrons preferred sheltered rocky areas where there was good water circulation

sloping rock on the edge of the rock platform. Organisms generally occupy and dominate specific zones. This sampling technique was carried out by constructing a line transect to examine the rock platform from an area of extreme low tide to an area of extreme high tide. Starting at the 0m mark the dominant organisms were identified at each meter. This information was graphed on a diagram. - A Quadrat was used to measure the distribution and abundance of the Tidal Rock-shelf Animals. The 1m squared

the Sun reinforce those of the moon: spring tide * When the moon is at first or third quarter‚ the sun and moon are separated by 90 degrees. The forces of the sun and moon cancel causing: neap tide * Semidiurnal: two high tides and two low tides each day * Diurnal: one tidal cycle per day * In most places tides are mixed. Because of the diurnal contribution‚ there is a difference in height (the daily inequality) between the two high tides in a given day. * The size of wind waves

The Sun and Moon Elizabeth Milam ENG 121: English Composition I Kathy Conner March 5‚ 2012 The Sun and Moon The sun and the moon have both been dated at 46 billion years old. Other than defining time in human experience‚ the sun and moon have very little in common. Their differences range from physical attributes to functions. Since the beginning of civilization‚ both bodies have inspired a fascination in humans. Even though the sun and moon appear to play similar roles‚ they are
