Analyse the human impacts affecting the nature and rate of change of two ecosystems at risk. All ecosystems are placed under levels of stress that must be withstood or overcome in the form of evolution in order to adapt and survive. These attributes determine the resilience and vulnerability of each and every ecosystem. These forms of stress fall under two categories; natural and human induced. In regards to natural stress‚ the term gradual is used as it happens at a slower rate and lesser magnitude

Saji Begum With reference to one or more located coastlines‚ examine the factors responsible for landforms of coastal erosion. (25 marker) Most of our landforms on the coastline are formed because of coastal erosion. But firstly it is essential to understand what coastal erosions are. Coastal erosion involves the breaking down and removal of material along a coastline by the movement of wind & water. They are sorted in two categories‚ Marine processes and Sub aerial processes. A few methods of erosion

Introduction Tropical island reef flats serve as habitats for a diverse range of organisms. Among these organisms is an abundance of macroalgae. Macroalgae may even be numerous enough to comprise most of the benthic area near a reef (Carpenter 1986‚ Villaça et al. 2010‚ Hay 1981). The large presence of macroalgae corresponds to a large role as primary producers (Carpenter 1986). Thus‚ these organisms can play an important part in marine food webs. Aside from the effects of herbivores‚ macroalgae
