Beach Profile Data
Group 1 :
The first group’s beach profile is measured nearby the sea defence. The land’s incline from the sea level is relatively high, half way through the slope it’s filled up with trees and grass with flatter slant. The slant height has proven that it has a smaller amount of human interaction in that area.
Group 2 :
Group 2’s beach profile is measured nearby the shop, therefore it has more human interaction compared to the first group. On the graph shown, it’s bumpier with lots of litter as it gets closer to the other end nearby the road. There are more human interaction which resulted to have a slightly more gentle slope.
Group 3 :
Group 3’s result is measured nearby the shop too, therefore it has a relatively similar result to Group 2’s beach profile. From the sea level onwards it has a pretty gentle slope, as it gets closer to the road it gets bumpier due to large human interactions.
Group 4 :
Compare to Group 2 and 3’s beach profile, Group 4 has an obvious fluctuation with a steady slope. There’s a bump on the slope nearby the road with grass and lots of human activities.
Group 5 :
Group 5 has a gentle and wavy slope going upwards, but the slope flatten as it gets closer to the road although it’s bumpy too. Different kinds of litter can be seen from the graph along the slope, due to human activities.
Group 6 :
As the graph shown, the amount of litter is increasing as you go higher up the slope away from the sea level. The slope is increasing steadily and flattens as it gets nearby the road, proven that there may be car and people walking on it pretty frequently.
Group 7 :
As the graph shown the slope is flatly increasing above the sea level and has a flat slight slope nearby the road with car parked at that area.
Group 8 :
Group 8’s beach profile is pretty similar to Group 7’s. It has a steady flat slope going upward above the sea level with very bumpy slope nearby the road.
Group 9 :
Group 9’s beach profile is the closest data to the mangroves area, it shows a huge fluctuation compare to other results. It has a high gradient, with small amount of human activities. There are many trees higher up the slope with more grass and less sand compare to the end closer to the sea level.
