Coastal Management - 4 case studies



You are to create a presentation on 4 case studies:

1. Happisburgh, Norfolk
2. Maldives
3. Namibia
4. Chittagong, Bangladesh

For the last 2 it is slightly harder to find research material. Your presentation slides can only have a title/subtitle. No other words permitted.

http://www.academia.edu/2349449/Coastal_zone_management_Status_of_Bangladesh

For each case study you must examine, and present:

(a) physical processes (geology, how erosion is happening)
(b) what pressures there are on this coastline (population, urbanisation, economic interests)
(c) how the coastline is being managed (hard/soft engineering; ICZM)
(d) what conflicts there are between different players
