Beach profile can vary with the sediment size and the beach segment.Sediments get smaller as when a wave crashes into the shoreline,it loses some energy and drops bigger sediments.Thus,sediment size gets smaller as it gets further from the shoreline

Using a quadrat, we picked out sediment samples from each corners' and the middle square. Referring to the sediment size chart, we were able to record different sediment sizes in relative to increasing beach profile. For example, we found very coarse and sub-rounded sand at beach segments nearest to the shoreline.

My group used a clinometer, 2 ranging poles and a metre rule to measure the beach slope.We positioned the two ranging poles to be 1 meter away from each other heading towards the berm.We used the metre rule to ensure accuracy in our measurements.We then took the  clinometer and measured the angle from the top of the ranging pole.We measured the beach slope using the clinometer three times to reduce human error and ensure accuracy,From the results,we can tell  how sediments affects the beach slope formation.Coarse sand or gravel on a beach absorbs the impact of the wave swash and more water moves up the beach when a wave breaks than moves back down toward the sea,carrying the sediments higher,forming a much more steeper angle.

The Shoreline and where the beach starts are always near to each other.
For High water mark,we could tell it was the high water mark as many of rubbish was deposited all in the same area and waves deposits larger and heavier objects first
Berm is an area just on the egde of the beach,In a berm,plants can be found and the floor in berm is so much more solid than sand

To measure longshore drift,we tied an orange to a string and threw it into the sea.We marked the exact place when we threw the orange into the sea.We left the orange in the sea for three minutes before marking it again and retrieving the orange.Now,we can measure how far the orange travelled,telling us how strong the longshore drift is and which direction it is headed.In our first attempt,the longshore drift brought the orange towards the north-west for about 6.7 meters in the 3minutes.The second time we did it the orange still went the same direction but this time,it went alot further.About 13.9 meters.However,the tbird time we did it.instead of going north-west,it went north-east,indicating that the wind have changed direction

We can conclude that our hypothesis is correct,proven in the labelled beach picture.Though our results werent that accurate due to time constrains and unexpected weather conditions,we manage to get a rough idea of whats suppose to happen and we manage to get it partially correct
