Coast 1
The document defines various coastal landforms and processes. It describes features such as alluvium, arches, atolls, bays, beaches, berms, blowholes, caves, cliffs, and reefs. It also explains coastal erosion processes like attrition and the formation of sand. Coastal defenses like armour blocks and beach nourishment are also defined.
Beesands & Torcross
The document summarizes coastal defenses in the villages of Beesands and Torcross in 3 sentences. Large granite boulders called rip-rap protect the access road north of Beesands village. Along the sea front of Beesands, a curved seawall and additional rip-rap were constructed in 1993 to defend the length of the village. In Torcross north of Beesands, a curved seawall protects the coast road where it meets the coast, with the old coast road now serving as a promenade behind the village for extra protection.

This document defines and distinguishes several landforms and geographic features. It states that a plateau is a level area elevated above sea level and over 200 meters high, while mountains exceed 600 meters in elevation. Depressions are concave areas on surfaces. Beaches are accumulations of material along coastlines, and a cape is a point of land extending into a body of water. A gulf has no land within it, whereas a peninsula is connected to land on one side.
Holderness Towns
1) The coastal town of Hornsea suffers from erosion of weak boulder clay and loss of beach due to longshore sediment drift (LSD). This led to complaints and the construction of sea walls and groynes to build the beach back up as a defense.
2) The sea defenses at Hornsea have starved the nearby area of Mappleton of sand, causing its beaches to wash away from LSD. Two groynes and boulder revetments were constructed here for £2 million, reducing LSD and allowing more deposition.
3) Erosion at Great Cowden has been very rapid at 1-2 meters per year. Properties and farms are at risk from rotational slumping of saturated b

The Humber Estuary and Holderness Coast
This document provides an overview of coastal processes and landforms along the Humberside and Lincolnshire coastline in the UK. It describes how the coastline has changed over time, from the last ice age until present day, noting that rising sea levels flooded the area around 6000 years ago and created new coastal landforms like Holderness. The coastline consists of interconnected coastal areas from Flamborough Head to Gibraltar Point that function as a single coastal system influenced by tidal flows, waves, and sediment movement. Future sea level rise poses risks to the coastline from increased flooding and erosion. The document aims to provide context to help coastal managers make informed decisions that work with natural coastal processes.
Dorset coast
The document describes land use conflicts and solutions at Lulworth Cove in Dorset, England. It identifies various land users in the area, including tourists, the military, environmental groups, and local residents. Increased tourism has led to issues like traffic congestion, noise, litter, and erosion. Solutions that have been implemented include improving footpaths, limiting development, and coordinating with the military to improve access. However, some solutions like resurfacing parking areas have also introduced new problems. Effective management of competing interests in the coastal zone remains an ongoing challenge.
Bitou Cape Trail (鼻頭角步道)
Bitou Cape Trail is a hiking trail in northern Taiwan that offers scenic views. The trail is divided into three sections and passes towering sea cliffs, sea-eroded landforms, and Bitou Cape Lighthouse, which stands 120 meters above sea level. Hikers can enjoy ocean vistas and the meeting of the East China Sea and Pacific Ocean waves from the lighthouse.

The document discusses various coastal features and landforms found along coastlines. It describes key coastal topographic features such as headlands, bays, sea cliffs, shore platforms, and sea caves which are often formed from basalt or granite bedrock. Beach features like pocket beaches, spits, bars, and tombolos are also mentioned. Estuaries, mangroves, and other coastal ecosystems are noted. Coastal environments provide resources for human activities like fishing and shipbuilding but also face threats from erosion, flooding, and pollution.
Mahdi nori ojgaz
This document summarizes a study of the coastline between Nicotera and Santa Eufemia Lamezia in Calabria, Italy. The preliminary studies found that 65% of beaches were stable, 5% were accreting, and 30% totaling 200 km were eroding. Detailed analysis identified issues in critical areas. The coastline includes cliffs, sandy beaches with fine to medium grain, and pockets beaches. Structures are only present near some ports. Problems include sediment loss in winter storms and interaction between river deposits and underwater canyons, which may transport sediment offshore rather than building beaches. Proposed solutions include limited intervention and artificial beach nourishment protected with submerged structures.

The Twelve Apostles are a collection of limestone rock stacks off the coast of Port Campbell National Park in Australia that were formed when erosion of the limestone cliffs by the Southern Ocean created caves that eventually collapsed, leaving tall rock stacks isolated from the shore. Known originally as the Sow and Piglets and later renamed the Twelve Apostles for tourism despite never having more than nine stacks, the limestone formations were created over 10-20 million years by erosion of the mainland cliffs.
Coasts
This document provides an overview of coasts and coastal processes. It begins with an introduction to the topics that will be covered, including the syllabus, case studies, coastal processes, and exam technique. Case studies include the Holderness Coast, Flamborough Head, and Spurn Point. Coastal processes such as hydraulic action, abrasion, attrition, and solution are explained. Exam advice is given around answering 6-marker questions by explaining coastal landforms and processes in a structured sequence.
Jurassic Coast
The document discusses the Jurassic Coast, a section of coastline in Dorset, England located between Orcombe Rocks and Swanage. It includes the towns of Budleigh Salterton, Seaton, West Bay, Bridport, Weymouth and Portland. The document also analyzes how hydraulic action has eroded Lulworth Cove, causing the land around it to collapse as water has gotten inside cracks in the cliffs and weakened the rock.
Jurassic Coast
The Jurassic Coast stretches along the English Channel coastline between Exmouth and Swanage. It features geological formations like Lulworth Cove, which was formed through erosion processes such as hydraulic action and corrosion that more quickly eroded the softer rocks within the cove, leaving behind its horseshoe shape. Other notable landforms along the Jurassic Coast include Durdle Door and Old Harry Rocks, and the rates of erosion vary due to differences in local rock hardness and the effects of wind and wave activity.
8. spits and bars
Spits and bars are depositional coastal landforms formed by processes such as longshore drift. A spit is a depositional landform that extends from the shore out to sea, often curved in shape due to opposing winds and currents. A bar occurs where a spit grows across a bay, enclosing the bay to form a lagoon, or forms offshore due to breaking waves. Longshore drift transports sediment along the coast and causes deposition of material in certain areas, gradually building up spits and bars.
Geology cies islands
The Cies Islands were formed by tectonic plate movements that caused mountains to form and later sink below sea level, creating the islands. The islands feature geological formations such as lagoons, beaches, caves, cliffs, tombolos, dunes, and bays that were shaped by erosion, transportation, and sedimentation of materials. Physical, chemical, and biological weathering also contribute to changing the landscape of the Cies Islands over time.
Sea waves
Sea caves are formed when waves erode the coastline, creating openings that get bigger over time. When the roof of a sea cave is completely eroded, sea arches are formed. Further erosion can break through the arch, leaving only rock stacks along the coast. Sea cliffs are steep, rocky coastlines rising up from the water, while beaches are formed when sediments are deposited by waves along the shoreline. Glaciers carry and deposit materials like rocks, sand, and silt, forming deposits.
57台灣鼻頭角步道
The Bitou Cape Trail in northern Taiwan features scenic coastal landforms carved by erosion. The 3km trail runs along cliffsides and passes a 120m tall lighthouse, offering views of the East China Sea and Pacific Ocean meeting. Hiking the trail, one can explore rugged sea caves, platforms, and other eroded landscapes along with fishing villages from coastal and cliffside paths. The iconic Bitou Cape resembles a cat's nose leaning towards the sea when viewed from afar.
Coasts 2 Features
The document discusses coastal erosion and deposition features. It lists various erosion features such as stack erosion, cliff erosion along chalk cliffs or stratified rock layers, blowholes, headlands, stacks, arches and caves. It also discusses depositional features including sand dunes, beaches with groynes to prevent sand movement, beaches with varying slopes and widths, spits, bars made of materials like shingle, lagoons, salt marshes, and mud flats.

5th landforms sample
An island is any piece of land surrounded by water, a peninsula is a piece of land nearly surrounded by water but connected to mainland via an isthmus, and a delta is a deposit of sediment accumulating at the mouth of a river where a stream flows into a lake.
Biodiversity
Biodiversity refers to the variety of living organisms on Earth. It is essential to sustaining life as we know it by providing resources like food, shelter, and medicine. However, human activity is causing biodiversity loss at an accelerated rate, endangering many species. Several facts illustrate this reduction, such as one in eight plant species being threatened with extinction. If biodiversity continues to decline, the world would lose resources and ecosystems that support life. We all must take action to protect biodiversity for future generations.

Defending Your Workloads Against the Next Zero-Day Vulnerability
When serious vulnerabilities like Shellshock or Heartbleed are found, you know you should respond quickly. But when you’re juggling many priorities, and are more comfortable developing apps than security policies, emergency updates may fall to the bottom of the list. Is there a better way to protect your workloads, without a lot of work? In AWS, you approach everything in your infrastructure as an API. If you take the same approach to security, you can automate protection for zero-day vulnerabilities, without impacting agility or architecture flexibility. In this session, we’ll show you how to use AWS security groups, virtual private networks, and security capabilities like intrusion detection and prevention to defend what you put in the cloud. We will use the recent Shellshock vulnerability as a real-world threat scenario and walk you through how to combine AWS features and workload-aware security controls to prevent hackers from exploiting similar zero-day threats. Learn simple, easy to deploy security tools and techniques to protect workloads – that don't require a PhD in cyber security.

National Security Agency - NSA mobile device best practices
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
