Internationally the UK continues to push for greater protection of marine habitats on the world stage with 20 countries joining the UK-led Global Ocean Alliance, which aims to secure protection for at least 30% of the worlds oceans by 2030. (a) (i) Compare the characteristics of the coastal landscapes shown in Figure 1. e.g. cluster in North Wales There is a shift in voting patterns, with more voters choosing to vote for parties with the better green and blue credentials. deposition where wind speed falls behind obstacles [5], Three areas identified on the map south-west/northeast/ north-west) - not all are needed. examination of how human intervention e.g. The content will depend upon the landform(s) chosen and may include: Photographs: Research shows that underwater noise from construction, shipping and naval vessels significantly impacts the natural behaviour of cetaceans and many other marine species. Special publications, vol 175. The first reason why the beaches are eroding is because of rock jetties. -Colour of land, Orientation of the coast - some sections of coastline may be exposed to stronger winds In this study, we attempt to address this issue by simulating the spatial interactions among natural hazards, ever-increasing human activities, and social vulnerability in the south coast of the Bohai Sea, China. This means there is less available dissolved oxygen for native sea life, which can negatively impact biological processes. Erosional bays Damage to housing shown on photo Identification of individual groups? The following discussion will consider some of the more obvious and problematic human impacts. Geog 222 Section (1) Mrs Sandra Burrows. The gradual slope of the beaches before erosion and the replenishment of sand is no longer. - lack of groundwater This has happened for many year. This realisation makes it all the more important that we take care of our environment, and our ever-expanding national Blue Belt, protecting more than 40% of English waters, is helping to safeguard these precious habitats for future generations.

Marshland and wetland is used to by farmers for grazing pasture for cattle: Industry battles alongside coastal tourism. The main type of erosion, from the sea, takes the sand from the sand dunes as well as the rest of the beach in a rip. Knowledge and understanding of processes of coastal erosion AO2. Humans interact with the world around us every day, but some of our actions are more harmful than others. When answering 8 mark questions data presentation go through: Data Presentation: -+ ability of such graphs to display the relative importance of the groups and be able to compare this at each return period. Sands and gravels eroded from the shores of coastal bays maintain the beach as a natural barrier between the open water and coastal wetlands. A geographical context for the management strategy debris protects base of cliff from erosion Bays knowledge and understanding of the strategy to demonstrate how the management strategy modifies coastal processes If you have ever lived in proximity to coastal areas you may have seen coastline erosion first hand. Human Impact on Coasts. AO1 We just have to take positive steps now. Loss of farm land in the southern section of the photograph Many human activities take place on the coast; The effects of these may be: Direct or indirect; Positive or negative; Table of Impacts on Coasts. AO2 Candidates should demonstrate application of knowledge and understanding through an examination of the extent to which one coastal management strategy has been successful.

AO1 content encompasses knowledge and understanding of how erosional, and other valid, processes produce landforms. Row of houses lost to the south of the caravan park, 14. Positive impacts could include the management and conservation of environmentally sensitive areas, the protection of areas of coastline from erosion as part of a shoreline management plan (SMP), where there has been an improvement of the coast as an amenity or where there is a perceived improvement in the aesthetic character of the coastline The United Nations have declared that the next decade will focus on Ocean Science and ecosystem restoration. (eds) Encyclopedia of Coastal Science. Discusses multiple meanings of landscape and approaches to landscape studies. [3], 8. There are 4 key areas which have affected the coastline: Its common in parts of the UK for Crowded Coasts to be used as a term, Many people who work in London can no longer afford housing there, so some commute in from coastal towns and cities (Brighton). Humans also impact the land around or near the coast. Knowledge and understanding of the characteristics of one landform of coastal deposition A lot of the seawalls and groins were buried in order to form the new beaches. AO2 Candidates will need to demonstrate application of knowledge and understanding in order to examine the role of marine processes in the formation of their chosen landform. Here, we used a multispecies occupancy model (MSOM) to understand mammalian habitat use patterns across a mosaic of tropical dry forest in Colombia and elucidate whether forest cover is more important than its integrity and other . lithological factors or structural geology of the area.

Knowledge and understanding of the link between processes of transport and one landform of coastal deposition The Defra and UK Research and Innovation-led review in collaboration with Plymouth Marine Laboratory and Exeter University, showed that Brits spending time by the sea reported increased happiness, better general health and were more physically active during their visit, compared to visits to other types of environment. "Human activity affects coasts globally. As floodwater carries material from the eroded . Does it show patterns effectively? CERC, 1984. In: Schwartz, M.L. Human Arrowed explanations will assist the candidate to reach Band 3. Many countries have taken steps to ban single use plastic items like straws, drink stirrers and cotton buds. Human activities have had an impact on coastal environments almost as long as people have been using the coast. meltwater moves to oceans transportation of sediment Where areas suffer from high levels of erosion different protections strategies are implemented to protect the coastline. In England, 271 million recreational visits are made to coastal environments annually and more than 22 million people live within 5 miles of the coast. 293303. Herein, bacterial communities and soil carbon content in coastal wetland native areas . Coral reefs A new issue facing the Ocean is that of deep sea mining. In Pye, K., and Allen, J.R.L. There are, however, a number of evidence gaps which we wish to further explore, such as the effects of marine environments on obesity prevalence in children and Vitamin D in adults, or the life stage at which nature-based interventions are most effective, and how they may vary among economic, social and cultural groups in the population. This has been successful in reducing the amount of sand that is drawn out to sea. People try to protect some areas from erosion but this can have negative impacts as well as positive. There are even implications now as they add more sand. Assessment of positive impacts over time - increase or decrease You can also search for this author in Access to the beaches of barrier islands resulted in fill-type causeways. This is more than half the worlds population. In the other case, if there is more deposition than erosion, then the beaches grow due to more. Candidates demonstrate application of knowledge and understanding to evaluate the extent to which coastal processes (and their associated landforms) impact positively on human activity. type of process changes with time/spatial scale - marine to fluvial and glacial Identification of individual groups. The cost of this over the years is well into the millions and although replenishing the beaches with sand is helpful now, it is hardly a long term solution (Fox). We use some essential cookies to make this website work. Candidates may make arguments, using evidence, to show that positive impacts on human activity outweigh negative impacts or conversely that negative impacts outweigh the positive.

Ability to show change over time Through the implementation of the 25 Year Environment Plan, the UK continues to consider the need for further domestic protection, and is putting in place new management measures for Marine Protected Areas, including seeking new powers through the Fisheries Bill, which is currently before Parliament. Assessment of human versus other activity in the production of positive impacts - e.g. [5], The development of the coastal landscape can be seen from both an erosional and depositional viewpoint. Various locations across the UK have tourist areas next to industries. The primary dune's main function is to absorb the force of the ocean and protect the great south bay and the island's main coast. The relationship between humans and their environment is a topic that engenders much debate. Throughout history, humans have attempted to slow or alter the dynamic coastal zone. Wave cut platforms All points on scale? the changing role of wind with distance inland how the strategy modifies process -Mouth, Sea level is rising at about 1 millimetre per year, which, under normal circumstances, habitats can adapt to, but the loss of inshore coral reefs and coastal mangrove forests adds to the potential damage . An examination of other time scales The variety of intertidal organic life encourages biological weathering. Clarity water locked into glaciers Wetlands are constantly adjusting to disturbances occurring within them and within the surrounding landscape.

Ability to pick out anomalies? isostatic subsidence (slowly/over a long period of time), 19. The geological structure incorporates bedding planes, dip, folding and faulting and can add distinctive features to these landforms. This may include such aspects as coastal locations, shape, magnitude The government is also considering the recommendations of a recent review led by former Fisheries Minister, Richard Benyon, which found that there is a case for higher protections in some marine areas, with a total ban on all human activity to allow wildlife to flourish. EXAMPLE: The snapshots of our trip to Kenya are (lying, laying) on top of the photo album. The human cost of flooding can be large, but events like this have a big impact on the natural world too, and the effects are not always negative. AO2 content encompasses the application of knowledge and understanding to evaluate the importance of seasonal processes and their link to landform(s). This erosion may be very apparent or seem to have happened overnight when it happens due to a large storm or extremely high tide. [3], - presence of unconsolidated sand Candidates may refer to the fact that where successful management strategies are implemented, negative impacts are mitigated. The content may vary according to the landscape but may include: homelessness Knowledge and understanding of the characteristics of identified landform(s) of coastal deposition. Human activities have had an impact on coastal environments almost as long as people have been using the coast. This is called an erosional coastline. Knowledge and understanding of the processes operating over a time scale of seconds - mass movement, storm events, wave motion, tides and currents Landforms include headlands, cliffs and wave-cut platforms. Superimposition of circles makes interpretation difficult and confusing the impact of the strategy on processes operating in adjacent parts of the coastal system [4], - Wave cut platforms: 896952 Knowledge and understanding of the characteristics of identified landforms that are linked to this scale and their link to process All storm water drains in Victoria are linked to the sea.
