The formation of subhorizontal shore platforms in the South Shetland Islands has been attributed to fast ice freezing to the underlying bedrock, quarrying by grounded ice and stranded ice rocked by the tides, and abrasion by rocks frozen into the ice base (Hansom and Kirk 1989). Ice-push, by wind-driven floating ice loaded with rock fragments ...
Quarrying is the removal of discrete blocks of bedrock by sliding ice (Fig. 6.1) and is often considered to be the most important glacial erosion process (e.g., Cohen et al., 2006; Iverson, …
Fishermen in Rosario, Cavite say dredging and seabed quarrying activities in the municipality are threatening not only the environment but their livelihood as well.

Brunsden (2002) has actively promoted the utility of geomorphology in engineering studies, and in doing so has increased the awareness and consideration of geomorphological science in slope stability investigations.His research in Lyme Regis (Brunsden and Moore, 1999) identified linkages between anthropogenic shore platform lowering, cliff recession rates and …
Project staff monitored this spring for blasting and quarrying impacts on spring turbidity. This setting was chosen by staff to be analogous to the numerous older wells in southeastern Minnesota that are finished in the surficial limestone deposits that are being quarried. Typically, citizens with these wells are those who complain about ...
Changes in land use, the development of hard embankments covering the river banks and dams hindering the flow of sediments toward the shore, the widespread quarrying of the river bed, as well as the protection of mountain slopes from hydrological processes that reduce soil erosion and the development of loose sediments, are the factors that may ...
Understanding what is quarrying and how it supports construction is key to appreciating its impact on modern life. In this guide, we'll explore the quarrying process, the …

Quarries and pits can affect ground-water and surface-water systems in various ways. This project focused on the following potential impacts: . temperature change (thermal impacts) in …
Shore platforms are abraded by the to-and-fro movement of beach material by breaking waves and swash following wave breaking. ... and water alternate and this, therefore, corresponds to a narrow zone above and below the fluctuating waterline. Wave quarrying is generally considered as the most important wave erosional process on sloping shore ...
a) Clò Mór cliff (193m) to the east of Cape Wrath, Sutherland is a good example of a plunging cliff, with no shore platform development, which has been inherited from former sea levels.
The abrasion along the shore works horizontally to form a wave-cut cliff and a wave-cut platform. Exposure may be an important factor, as studies of shore platforms in Japan have shown that the mean platform width is about 40 m on the sheltered Inland Sea, 50 m on the more exposed Japanese Sea, and 60 m on the exposed Pacific coast (Trenhaile ...
Colin Edwards talks to Jeremy Hooker, whose Selected Poems is to be published by Shearsman in July, alongside a new book of critical writing, Art of Seeing: Essays on Poetry, Landscape Painting, and Photography..

The data were collected from different target groups in order to get the actual information about impacts of quarrying. We have analyzed the data by using tables and percentage interpretation ...
This work aimed to develop an assessment tool that can help local officials and the public understanding the main effects surrounding location of quarrying activities and improper disposal of CDW. The specific objectives were to (1) assess the visual impact of quarries and CDW dumpsites at the landscape level and (2) investigate the effect of land conversion to quarries …
This article explores significant environmental impacts within the quarrying sector, from a lifecycle perspective. Quarries, where mechanical extraction and processing for rock products (including aggregates and ornamental stone) occur, are integral for infrastructure projects worldwide. To identify significant environmental aspects that should ...

Quarrying and transport of much larger blocks of up to 100 t during storms have been reported from a few shore platforms and reefs in other parts of the world (Bishop and Hughes, 1989, Etienne and Paris, 2010, Goto et al., 2009, Goto et al., 2011-this volume; Saintilan and Rogers, 2005) and recent observations suggest that 1–10 m 3 wave ...
Wave quarrying – when high energy, tall waves hit the cliff face they have the power to enlarge joints and remove large chunks of rock in one go through vibration. This occurs due to the intense force of these waves. ...

Erosion was by corrasion and wedging, a previously unrecognised process which is the quarrying of rock aided by fine-grained particles from the beach. Wedging, perhaps with some corrasion, had a median erosion rate of 11.05 · 10 −3 cm tide −1 in Upper Lias shale while the rate for corrasion was 5.79 · 10 −3 cm tide −1 .
Granite quarrying started slowly in this area in the late 18th century with small operations peppered across the rocky terrain. Construction of a fort at Castle Island in Boston Harbor in 1798 followed by a jail in nearby Salem in 1813, jump started the granite business here on Cape Ann. During the 1830s and 1840s, the trade grew steadily.
Scientists, fisherfolk, civil society groups have raiseed the alarm on destructive seabed quarrying happening in their local waters. Seabed quarrying and ore mining activities are underway in Limay in Bataan, Cavite, Tayabas Bay, Lingayen Gulf, and Cagayan while land-reclamation or dump-and-fill projects are also in the pipeline for Sogod Bay, Cancabato Bay, …
Cape Ann's location allowed for quarries to be set-up close to shore so that the granite blocks could be shipped by vessel. This was important in the early days when railway service was non-existent. Despite the above advantages, it was the rugged character, ingenuity, and perseverance of the people of Cape Ann that made quarrying successful.
D. De Jesus. Experts in science, fisherfolk, and civil society groups demand accountability from the concerned national and local governments and called on the Senate for investigation as massive seabed quarrying projects continue to threaten coastal and marine habitats including fisheries resources nationwide.
