What Is Teignmouth's Execution Affect The Community?

A seawall was implemented at Cronulla beach as a result of the inappropriate development, which occurred, on the very shoreline. A seawall is a form of coastal defence, constructed where the sea, and associated coastal processes, impact directly upon the landforms of the coast. The purpose of a seawall is to protect areas of human habitation, conservation and leisure activities from the action of tides and waves. Specifically in Cronulla, the seawall was administered in order to act as the tertiary dune, which was removed to conserve space that allowed coastal development to proceed. Ultimately, this structure protects the development behind it (such as hotels, restaurants and car park spots), against the waves and tides of the ocean. Hence its vital role is to capture sand and dissipate wave energy; the slight concave structure of the seawall at Cronulla increases the dissipative element of the waves, thus showcasing the Seawall’s efficacy. Such absorption of wave energy means the natural process of erosion is reduced incredibly; consequently leading to the increased stability of the land where infrastructure has been developed. Furthermore, despite the issue of inappropriate development being combated with the implementation of seawalls, there are numerous disadvantages associated with such a structure. The main role of a seawall is to dissipate or reflect incoming wave energy and as

Natural disasters are considered harmful in terms of coastal management and can often cause years of work to be wiped out. It can take large amounts of sand from the beach and remove plant life. Collaroy Beach has been a victim of such natural disasters. A large storm back in 1945 caused Collaroy Beach to empty out a large percentage of its sand and damaged many structures. Collaroy Beach’s local council, Warringah Council, has taken action to prevent storm damage in the future. A revetment wall has been established on the sand dunes so waves do not cause as much damage to the dunes behind. Warringah has also purchased properties that were residential and cleared them, so that a storm will not damage as many structures.

This leaves the sand dunes more susceptible to erosion causing blowouts and disrupting the succession of vegetation in the area. This has been a problem at Studland Bay in Dorset on the south coast of England. Persistent human leisure activities on the dunes has led to substantial erosion in some parts of these dunes which has meant that Management programs have had to been introduced by English Nature. Sand dunes help absorb the pounding of high waves and reduce overwash flooding in storms.

This investigation will be exploring whether the movement of pebbles, shingle, shells and other materials found on the beach have impacted on the shape and structure of Newhaven beach and Castlehead Cliff. One of the key processes this investigation will focus on is that of long shore drift caused by strong prevailing winds, prevailing wind is the direction from which the wind usually blows. Cliffs are made from mainly two materials, chalk which is at the bottom and sand and clay at the top. If cliffs are facing the direction of prevailing wind it may lead in high rates of cliff

Collaroy beach is located 16km north of Sydney’s CBD within Warringah Council's local Government Area. It is approximately 3.6 km long from the local Collaroy surf Club to the Narrabeen lagoon in the north. It had extensive development in comparison with other beaches. There are over 120 plots of land and 293 residential units within this area. Many buildings are many stories high to accommodate a large number of wealthy people. This high level of development has posed a serious risk to property due to the effects of erosion, which has shaped Collaroy beach many years along with other natural processes such as deposition. Erosion continues to occur as the land is pushed inwards at a relatively rapid pace. A year 10 grade from Redfield College

Brighton, Glenelg, The West Beach Boat Ramp, Semaphore and Largs North Beach have all been influenced by hard engineering techniques. As an example, Glenelg was one of the few beaches that had some form of a breakwater along the coast. Breakwaters are notorious for having immediate impacts on the beach, but are ultimately useful in protecting the land that meets the beach. The real question is; “Do the benefits, outweigh the negatives?”. Breakwaters are

Hastings was chosen as an area to investigate coastal management because they had three types of hard and soft engineering. Secondly, it has a tourist industry that can be investigated. Thirdly, it has Shoreline Management Plan so the plan can be evaluated. Lastly, it Ties in with tourism and coastal parts of GCSE syllabus that are familiar and understood

Many communities are suffering due to coastal erosion. One example is the village of Cocodrie, LA in Terrebonne Parish. This village’s small population and its 220 residential and commercial buildings are surrounded by marshes. In Cocodrie, there is no barrier against hurricanes. Local marinas play host to recreational and commercial fishing, and The Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium is located in Cocodrie. This facility of around 100,000 square ft houses laboratories, classrooms, and a research center. Infrastructure that will be affected by coastal erosion includes paved highway, dirt roads, a bridge, water supply systems, and natural gas lines. By 2050, Cocodrie will be surrounded by open water as the marshlands around the village give way to rising sea levels. Another community affected by this issue is Yscloskey, LA in St. Bernard Parish. The most important part of the economy here is fishing, and highways link the parish to New Orleans fishing communities. The Yscloskey area lies outside of the protective levees and is quite vulnerable to storms. Though losses in Yscloskey are not predicted to be as great as those in Cocodrie, a 16 percent loss by 2050 leaves the infrastructure of Yscloskey even more vulnerable (Coast 2050, 1998, p. 64-66). Local residents in these areas are watching the land disappear along with the beachfronts and Cyprus swamps that were on that land (Marshall, 2014).

The site chosen for this report is the Moolap Waterfront and its hinterland. It is located 5km East of the City Centre of Geelong, South -west of Melbourne, Victoria. The site is generally flat topography with a significant coastal frontage and it’s considered to be a flood prone area.(This should go up)

During the Autumn/Winter of 2013/14, an unusually high frequency of depressions moved across the Somerset Levels, causing both fluvial and pluvial flooding on a prodigious scale. The two main rivers which flow through the Levels (River Tone/Parrett), burst their banks, spilling into the already heavily saturated flood plain. An emergency was declared and subsequently allowed the Somerset council to request financial and physical aid to the region. This essay highlights the key reasons the Somerset Levels flooded, as well evaluating the main management solutions that were put forward during the peak of the flooding.

Anne Arundel County is located on the coast of Maryland, and is “ almost completely surrounded by tidal and non-tidal waterways.”(pg. 1) This plan assesses the vulnerability of Anne Arundel County to sea level rise and makes recommendations improving the community’s climate resilience. It analyzes the impact sea level rise will have on the county in two scenarios, one where sea level rise is 0-2ft and one where it is 0-5ft. For instance, it identifies that 371 county archeological sites are vulnerable to 0-2ft of inundation and 422 sites are with 0-5ft of inundation. The plan notes that such sites are important cultural resources for the county and that “[o]nce they are destroyed [...] the information these sites can tell us of our past is

Some amount of natural erosion is necessary to provide the sediment for beaches in estuaries and coastal bays. However, excessive erosion has occurred in the past due to development. Industrial and private development along the world’s coastlines has increased dramatically since the 1970s (Nepf). Developers and builders completed much of this construction without taking into account the effects of coastal erosion. New buildings were often placed too close to the existing shoreline so that

What exactly is Coastal Resilience? Coastal Resilience is a global network of practitioners who are applying an approach and web-based mapping tool designed to help communities understand their vulnerability from coastal hazards, reduce their risk and determine the value of nature- based solutions (Coastal Resilience). The Tidewater area is a flat, coastal plain that is only 8 ft above sea level, which is why the increase in sea-level is a major threat causing floods. High tides in low coastal areas causes flooding to increase (Coastal Resilience). Emergency managers are used as a line of defense against flooding. Per the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, between 2008 and 2014 at least 23 million people were displaced by the direct impact of floods and storms. EJSCREEN, Environmental Justice Screening, is

The coastline is also exposed to strong North/North-East winds, which co-enside with a rather generous fetch. Destructive waves are a result, which erode the beaches and attack the foot of the cliffs, removing masses of clay in suspension, resulting in strong marine erosion. The material eroded and transported elsewhere results in little material left to form beaches, which act as a barrier to protect the cliff line from tides, currents and storms, therefore the sea's processed are able to keep cutting back the cliff line.

What effects Death Punishment causes to society?
