3.5 Heel horn erosions Heel horn erosion is seen as a change in the form of the exterior of the bulb of the heel (Greenough 2016). Heel horn erosion is not always the cause of lameness‚ with the true incidence being unknown (Greenough 2016). However‚ it is suggested that if dairy cows are exposed to copious slurry‚ the incidence of heel erosion quickly reaches 100%. In some dairy cows‚ heel horn erosion advances to a point at which complications develop and lameness may be apparent (Greenough 2016)

coastal areas contribute to shoreline erosion‚ and what they contribute to our beaches?”‚ also‚ “What increases with the creation of roads and rooftops?” Shoreline erosion is a big expensive problem that is having a negative impact on our environment.

I am writing today to discuss the issue of coastal erosion and the proposed solution of beach nourishment. Coastal erosion has several causes‚ the most prominent being the breaking of waves against the coastline. While seemingly harmless‚ over time waves break away at the shoreline‚ leading to its reduction. Beaches are the one thing that protect coastal structures from such damage. They act as a line of defense for everything they surround‚ and are necessary for communities to thrive along the coast
