Sand dunes

WRACK TECHNIQUES Note book is a mixture of fact, fiction and speculation. Your task as reader is to discover the truth. Bradley makes use of historical incidents and real people. He also draws inspiration from other texts. This is called intertextuality. For example he draws on Conrad’s book Heart of Darkness to explore the darkness in man’s heart. His character Kurt parallels Conrad’s Kurtz. He also quotes from Ondaatje p.37 to develop his idea about maps “whose portraits have nothing to do with

does however have a natural sea wall consisting of sand dunes and natural vegetation, that separates the sea from the first line of houses. In order to ensure that Culburra beach continues to flourish, all humans have to do is ensure they do not pollute the beach and waters and build houses too close to the natural beach. Culburra Beach has been able to continually achieve a natural cycle as the waves bring sand into beach and then take the sand back out into the ocean. This forms a natural process

Fraser Coast consists of four main ecosystems which are rocky shores, sand dunes, rainforests and mangroves. All of these ecosystems are important to the survival of several plants and animals. Each plant and animal work together to keep the ecosystem alive and healthy. Rocky Shores are found where the sea meets the land which supports a diverse mix of plants and animals that have adapted to survive in the unique conditions of constant wave action as well as the fall of tides (Ehp.qld. 2016).

down the beach to a sand dune. The walk was pretty long, considering that we had to walk in the deep sand. Once we got to the sand dune we all started climbing it; Phoebe and I had never been to that beach/sand dune before so we had no idea of what we were getting ourselves into. After about ten feet out of 200 or so feet Phoebe and I were absolutely dying of heat exhaustion. Our leg muscles were burning and our feet were on fire as the sun beat down on the treacherous unstable sand. We both just kept

during afternoon time and was able to gather information. As I got closer to the beach, I noticed that the sand would drift into the shallow waters near the shore which also gave room for a better view of the soft, sandy floor as one would get closer to the water. However, further away from the shoreline, there were many sand dunes and shattered seashells that were scattered everywhere in the sand. As I looked up towards the buildings nearby the beach, I noticed

recommendation that could reduce the impact of coastal environment and long- term coastal and marine conservation. Technical Strategies • Dune vegetation is needed for stabilize the force in the dynamic nature of large sand dunes, such as at Port Noarlunga beach. Community based management for mitigation of costal hazard and climate change could be an effective solution for dune management. • Larger scale techniques like beach nourishment may have better track records, at least

scorching flames of what was below me, sand. As I started to walk up and down the twisting obstacle that was 2 sand steps for every normal one step, I began to realize where I was. I saw smiling grandparents, crying 3 year olds, annoyed 15 year olds. But me, I wasn't smiling, or crying, or annoyed. I was, calm. I continued to walk, as I paced myself so that I wouldn't get dehydrated, or dizzy. I stopped, stood my ground and gazed, as I saw a girl sled down the sand, with the biggest smile I had ever

Island is a popular tourist attraction in Australian just 300km north of Brisbane and only 15 km of the coast of Hervey Bay. Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world and is world heritage listed. The island is around 120km long and cover a significant area of 1,840km2 Fraser Island is known for its spectacular long white beaches, sand cliffs, rain forests and a number of freshwater lakes that are crystal clear. The indigenous people of Fraser Island are the Butchulla people or their traditional

consist of sand, rock, shingle, stones and, or cobblestone. The molecules living on a beach are often natural to the shoreline, such as mollusk shells, saltwater chum, or green algae growth. Shorelines typically appear around territories along the coast where there is a wave or current action. While being at the beach, I adore hearing the sound of the tides, getting a feel of a light breeze, possessing a reminiscing scent of sea water, listening to the call of the seagulls, and feeling the sand, underneath

The climate of a planet plays a significant role in determining how life presumes. In fact, a hot climate makes water so scarce, that saliva is valuable. In the novel Dune, Frank Herbert makes the climate of Arrakis so significant, that dead bodies are seen as a “water” source. The climate on the planet of Arrakis makes water less significant than blood, because water cannot exist without blood. Arrakis’s climate is also a plus, because the warriors that live there are much more adapted to it than
