Document Summary
Eutrophication is the enrichment of a water body with inorganic chemical nutrients. Ranking of coastal vulnerability index (thieler & hammer-klose, 1999) *if the rate is positive the shoreline is accreting, if the rate is negative the shoreline is eroding. Overall cvi for assateague island (show your work): Overall cvi for goosefare bay (show your work): The mean tide range made goosefare bay the most vulnerable to sea level rise: wave height is generally considered to be the greatest source of erosion along coasts. Assateague island and goosefare bay have similar mean wave heights, but assateague. I think it is useful to have a numerical ranking system for coastal vulnerability because it allows us to know which coasts need priority protection. Paste your pictures of the animal tracking data below here (it"s ok if they take up multiple pages): Use the internet to find a study where animal tagging data had a major impact on human activities.
