Barton on sea is situated in the south coast of England between Lymington and Bournemouth. It is well known coastal area as it was the first place to try out rock groynes. The top of the cliff face is made from sand with gravel within it‚ and the bottom of the cliff where it’s starting to slump is made from clay which is porous and does not let water in easily unlike sand which is why we can see large amounts of coast erosion as the sand and gravel have pushed back so far.

As long as we continue to power our global economy by burning fossil fuels that pollute the air with heat-trapping gases‚ we are contributing to the increase in global temperatures.

Today I want to inform you about why sea level rise is a bigger concern than what it seems to be‚ especially in the upcoming years‚ and why we should care about it. Did you know that sea levels had been slightly decreasing

Sea Slugs Experiment A. These sea slugs were analyzed in an intertidal habitat in the coastal waters of Puerto Rico and the data about the distribution of these organisms were reflected upon a table‚ showing the different times of day and how far the distribution seemed to be.
