GEPL505 - Coastal Environments and Climate Change
|
| Unit Description |
The unit demonstrates, from field study, the current operation of coastal processes and how coastal systems have evolved in Australia over the past 20,000 years as a result of global climatic change. The past and present impact on human occupation is assessed relative to such changes, from the evidence left by past sea-level movements on local coasts and estuaries. The unit develops observational, recording and analytical skills relevant to the study of marine environmental change.
