TASK Prepare for the following exam question. Note although it does not make reference to case study/s you must use them.
"Examine the advantages and disadvantages of different types of coastal management schemes".
"Examine the advantages and disadvantages of different types of coastal management schemes".
Part 1 - Understand the various Hard and Soft Engineering options
Part 2 - Relate these to a case study of the Holderness area of the UK.
Part 1 - hard and Soft Engineering options
Part 1 - hard and Soft Engineering options
Essential Understandings 1:
Be able to identify between different Hard and Soft Engineering Options and the pros and cons of each. Note - you must be able to refer to Cliff Stabilisation (this is something often missing from some text books, make sure you understand it
Good Presentation - don't need all slides but it is a fantastic overview with many good case studies.
This section of the syllabus recognises that:
a) Coastal margins suffer from marine and sub-aerial erosion
b) They also are vulnerable to flooding due to storm surges, which will increase with sea level rise.
c) some places choose to manage these coastlines using a range of strategies - the choice is made as a result of cost-benefit analysis.
d) There are a range of hard and soft engineering options - all of which have their own pros and cons.
e) To manage a coastline, the whole littoral cell needs taking into account as well as all the views of the different stakeholders, which is why many plans are called "Integrated coastal management plans" in which they integrate different views as well as the overall effects management may have on other areas.
Resources

You need to be able to do the following for Holderness
You need to be able to do the following for Holderness
a) What are the pressures on the coastline that means that it needs management in the first place. (relate to reasons it erodes so fast and why this affects people in the area)
b) Who are the decision makers as to what management occurs - what considerations do they have to make?
c) how has the coastline been managed in terms of erosion control.
d) evaluate the effectiveness of the management for all concerned.
You need to refer to specific places, cost-benefit analysis - why some areas are protected and others are not. What conflicts does this cause.
When evaluating the effectiveness of past management - you need to look at the latest thinking on management of the area.
Option 1 Holderness - Using videos
TASK 1 - Watch all the videos above and answer the questions relating to the video on this sheet
TASK 2: Prepare for the exam question. at the top of the page.
- you need an annotated map.
- you need an annotated map.
Other Information to Read through to come up with a good case study......
Geoactive - update - Read to get information on the different areas that are protected - use this to annotate map.
Geofactsheet - Fantastic Resource - this MUST be used and will be your main source of information.
1 page summary - specific locations of coastal management - can add to map.
Option: Note taking on a Map - summarise main points on a copy of this map of the area.
Time for Geography - Video Answer
Alternative Task using Map on the left
Make a copy of the map on the left and annotate it to add all the relevant coastal management.
Add using
a) more information from the video below
b) Click on the photos of different places on this site (at the bottom of the page.
c) Add further information from Geoactive - update -

2023/24 - Use Tioman
Task: Read through the answer to the question on the new IB Prepared book that relates to this section of the syllabus.
Create an annotated map of the area showing conflicts and management solutions.
Use this to rewrite the answer from this page to add further information using Studland Bay that moves it up to a level 9/10.
Resources:
The answer page that you will be rewriting.
GIS resource: This is produced using ArGIS - a free resource. Think about using it for your case studies.
Page from IB book - ok but not in enough detail
Geofile - fantastic resource.
For Management of conflicting Pressures on a Coastline - Studland (see above) -Intro vid,
This is also another good video

Self Guided Lesson
Tioman Specific Information:
Tioman Specific Information:
Who are the different stakeholders in Tioman
What pressures are put on coral by different stakeholders.
What are the management decisions that have been made.
Discuss how this case study can be seen in relation to the IB Geography 4 P's (Power, processes, place and Possibility)
******Folder with many articles on Tioman and Tourism******
Most of the important aspects relating to this case study need to focus on
Government policies
local stakeholders - role of dive shops, hotels in maintaining biodiversity.
increasing access to recycling
Building of new reefs using reef balls - this is done in the main bay in Tioman
Work of NGOs - see below - Here is a link to a document of notes I took from Alvins talk (in 2019) from Cintai Tioman. What more can you add from the 2024 talk/inteview!
You should also be aware of non legislative ways in which coral reefs can be managed by actually restoring coral and growing them.
***** Note - The IB Text book has a good section on this, so if it is the least that you do at least read and make notes on pages 85-89 *****
