Sample Strategy Sheet
1. Review maps to measure the width of the bay and its indentation.
2. Field trip to the area of study to (a) measure wave frequency and beach width; (b)
determine the direction in which beach sediments move; (c) estimate wave energy;
(d) note relief, geology and features.
3. Draw sketch maps and take photographs.
4. Review secondary sources: for example, guides on coastal field work.
. C. Resources:
Maps, record sheet, measuring tape, floats, stop watch, camera, ranging pole, painted
pebbles.
D. How do you intend to present the data and findings in your report?
1. Location maps of the area of study: Las Cuevas, North Coast, Trinidad and Tobago
(as shown on the map).
2. Illustrate data using tables and graphs.
3. Illustrate with annotated photographs.
E. Analyse and Discuss Data:
Discuss relationship among wave processes, relief and geology, and landforms in the study
area.
ANTICIPATED CHALLENGES:
Tides, safety measures.
_
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:
Check tidal schedules; ensure there is adequate assistance and safety gear for students and
teachers.
