My Dream Place: The Beautiful Place Of The Amalfi Coast

Aruba is an island of amazing contrasts. Maximum individuals are acquainted with the luxurious resorts set along white sand beaches. However, within just some miles of the immaculate beaches and tranquil waters, there is a cosmic array of unique environs and tourist sites, from the limestone cliffs and booming waves found at the California Lighthouse to the strange rock formations of Ayo and Casibari. Many such places rest along a dirt road that embraces the northern shore of Aruba, a place of natural splendor and extraordinary Caribbean views. Rested on a hilltop at the island's northernmost point, the California Lighthouse offers visitors some of the superlative views in Aruba. Though the lighthouse is only a short drive from Oranjestad,

When thinking about getting away to some serene paradise to help forget about work or school obligations most people instantly think of the beach. Whether it be the west or east coast the beach is a universal symbol of peace and serenity, plus a little bit of fun. But this bliss has a whole different meaning to me. This is where I grew up and how I found myself. The west coast of Florida is the first time I felt the sand in my toes and the salt water on my face. These memories inspired me to give back to the ocean and its inhabitants and follow my dreams of becoming a marine biologist.

the location is next to the coast. If the sea levels were to rise there is a strong possibility that

People living in Miami are in the face of danger, and for the most part they are not aware of it. Due to high population, Miami is the fourth largest city to become affected by sea level rise. (Ankum et al.) In the next 32-50 years, sea level is expected to rise by as much as two feet. (Ankum et al.) This two-foot rise will have detrimental effects on the urban settings of Miami. The amount of soil erosion that is undergoing at our beaches will greatly increase if a two-foot rise occurs. At a four-foot rise, road connectivity would begin to become affected. At a six-foot rise, Southern Florida would no longer be habitable as it would, for the most part, be underwater. Not much is being invested in mitigation efforts, most of what is being done are short term solutions. Instead of coming up with ideas to prevent and try to slow down the effects of climate change on our environment, we are focusing on ideas such as building up a sea wall, relocating power plants, and redesigning structures.

In the sports article, “Surfers worry climate change is hitting their waves” by San Jose Mercury News states that global climate change is threatening many of the best surf spots worldwide. They state that as the swells get closer and closer to the coast that the waves are affected by the local winds. They predicted that the warmer weather could melt the polar ice and rise the sea levels along the Northern California Coast. They also stated that by 2100 the storms could shift causing the waves to move parallel along the coast instead of heading straight towards us. Lastly, the state that as the sea level rises that the waves wont break no more. Overall, they are informing us that as climate change keeps on getting worse that it might even affect

The earth has been unusually warm for many years, resulting in climate change. The earth is warming due to the sea level rising, which is an effect of Global warming. Global warming will cause the loss of natural habitats due to flooding of wetlands and lowering of sediment supply in the estuary. Global warming will also cause the loss of real estate due to storm surge. Finally, global warming will cause the loss of tax revenue due to flooding of present property, future growth zones, and job opportunities due to flooding of property as well as the loss of tourism due to property damage. It was interesting to research the effects global warming has on the coast of Delaware and learn how global warming will cause the loss of natural habitats,

Last time I described to you the city I currently live in, L’Aquila, Italy, a province in the Abruzzo region, by telling you about its history, my family, and my university. This time I would like to share with you the geography, climate, and details of my family’s home. Geographically L’Aquila sits upon a hillside in the middle of a narrow valley called the Valley of the Aterno-Pescara. It is positioned in a way that makes it close to highest Apennine summits, with an elevation of 2,365 feet. Because of the city being flanked by four mountain summits the warm, dry winds of the Mediterranean get blocked and cause L’Aquila to be very cool in comparison to central Italy. Like California, L’Aquila is also known for having many earthquakes. Throughout its history L’Aquila experienced eleven earthquakes, with each

In present day, the ocean is warmer now than it has been in the past 50 years. In the article, " Signs of Climate Change", it says that in 1960 the average ocean tempature change was -.3 degrees but in 2010 the average tempature change in the ocean was .6 degrees. Where I live the tempature is still continuing to rise more and more each year. With warmer ocean tempature comes rising sea level. In present day the sea level has rose by 7 inches in the past 100 years. In 2100 th tempature is around 15 inches higher than it is in present day. Both of these things are causing more tropical storms to happen and is also making the beach less and less

This paper is going to be about how caostal erosion is doubling on the coasts of Hawaii. Because of global warming the oceans sea levels are rising and causing erosion on the coast’s. How would you feel if the foundation of your house was slowly getting eroded by the sandy beaches and slowly crumbling.

Climate change creates significant impacts in the Australian context: in considering sea level rise is one of the most critical condition and as per the IPCC report, in 2100 it will increase by79 centimeters (Department of climate change, 2009). Further, it enhances natural hazards affect on the coastal region as flood, inundation, erosion, and storm surges, which will be a significant threat to the coastal community (Button et al.2013). In addition, sea level rise causes a significant change to beaches, coral reefs, estuaries, wetlands and low-lying islands.

The Sea Level has increased over the past 200 years as average global temperatures have increased. The rise is due to two factors, the freshwater being added to the oceans from ice melt in the cryosphere, and the thermal expansion of the oceans due to rises in sea temperature. The sea level has risen 6 to 8 inches in the past 100 years. It is predicted to rise another 50 to 90 centimeters in the next century. As the sea level rises it’s jeopardizing rapidly growing coastal communities, which causes evacuation in some areas causing people to lose their homes. Sea level is the effect

New York City will be my home for the next two years whilst I attend The City College. I believe that climate change will put coastal areas at risk. With the sea levels rising due to the melting of the ice sheets, extreme storm surges due to changes in weather patterns, and flooding they’ll threaten coastal infrastructure (buildings, transport, energy and water supply).

Decades of research suggest that sea-levels are rising, and will continue to rise as a result of climate change. This rise will have the most immediate and significant impact on

Today, we still turn to water for a sense of calm and clarity. For me, nature can be really therapeutic and smoothing in order for me to focus on different tasks. In fact, I am doing this assignment while I am at my lake house, Oconee. One of the experiences that I am about to share about, took place in Balm Beach Florida, just last year. Something about the ocean that brought me sense of calmness and relaxation in order for me to finish my last day of my online classes at GPC.

The rising temperatures of global warming has initiated the melting of ice sheets, contributing to global sea-level rise. Sea levels are expected to rise more than a metre beyond existing ‘stable’ tidal range positions, resulting in new inundation of land and shifts in shorelines. Inundation and coastal instability because of erosion, exaggerated by the extreme weather events caused by climate change, is a key risk for coastal areas such as the Gold Coast.
