Water waves

could only see about fifty meters into the distance. As our vessel sailed through the choppy waters, I could make out what looked to be a wall of some sort. Suddenly, an alarm sounded behind me. Rapidly, I turned around to see why someone had triggered such a ruckus, Captain Byrne sat in the cockpit signaling for me to hurry back inside the boat, that’s when I noticed the seeming wall-like object was a wave. I pushed my

1.0Introduction Saltmarsh, known as a coastal salt marsh or a tidal marsh, is a coastal ecosystem in the upper coastal intertidal zone between land and open salt water or brackish water, and is widely recognized as significant components in providing essential natural resources and ecosystem services. For example, by reducing wave energy in front of tidal defences, saltmarsh provides demonstrable flood and coastal risk management benefits. It is of immerse value to wildlife, supporting habitats and

practice dumping of slurry or coal mining waste into the hollow also began. Coal companies who operated upstream of the communities dammed Buffalo Creek to facilitate mining operations, which created an earth dam that held back 130 million gallons of water and coal waste. On average, a thousand tons of slurry had to be dumped every day. Although there were many complaints about the safety of the coal company and its regulation of the Buffalo Creek site, nothing was ever done to improve the dam’s conditions

deposited upon it. The only reason why beaches shrink is due to erosion and this can happen for a variety of reasons. One reason being that if a shore tends to receive more destructive waves than constructive waves, then the beach will erode over time. This is because destructive waves erode and constructive waves deposit sediment. A very relevant example is that the beaches in southern California are naturally shrinking right now because they aren’t receiving enough sediment from the San

to Riis Park for our day at the beach. One very distinct memory is of my father as he stood waist deep in the ocean with my brother and sister; the waves periodically lifted and dropped them in the water at his side. Waist deep for my father meant it was well over my head so I remained a safe distance (or so I thought) behind them. Suddenly, a wave appeared and and before I could turn and rush to the shoreline the ocean attacked. I found myself in a world of foam, pockets of air allowed me to

in Gulf Shores Alabama ? well I have the sight was the crystal clear blue water. Dolphins jumping out of the water.Huge boats in their docks.The sound of seagulls chirping in the sky.People talking as they enjoy their meals. The water swaying from the wind.The smell of the fresh burger and fries.If you walk slow enough you can smell the salt water smell.The touch of the water as you dip you feet in the nice refreshing water. The touch of boys as you eat dinner by you baseball team.The

multitude of different ways such as through illegal offshore dumping, storm-water drainage, lost fishing equipment, overflowing during high-volume rain events, improper or lack of sewage treatment of water, or simply by blowing off of piers,

things by the steps winding down from the massive pier to the beach side. I spin mid-leap and wave wildly to her. I hear some Japanese tourists laughing at my glee, and that just makes me smile even wider. She waves back and jogs to me, carefully avoiding the flock of angry seagulls I recklessly ran through a minute prior. I gave Sabrina my cellphone to hold since I wasn't sure if I was going to run into the water or not, and she's now filming me with it. I don't know what exactly she's hoping to capture

suggests that a worldwide flood did occur. A flood of this size would have needed more water than the Earth currently has. If all the water vapor in the Earth's atmosphere fell to the Earth in rainfall right now, it would only increase the world's sea levels by two inches. How could it be possible for the world to be covered in water when there isn't enough water on Earth? Two possibilities are that the water flooding the world did not just come from rainfall, and the Earth before this great flood

cutting cold. The icy water that stung my numb body and drained every bit of my energy, which left me defenseless against the endless winter waves, each one seemed more gigantic than the last. They pushed me down, down- tumbled me around, spun me until I don't know which way was up and which way was down. Still I attempted to fight my way to the surface. I managed to push to the surface and taste the sweet air but my mouth was soon filled with the salty sea of the next wave. Each breath grew less
