Beach Profiling at Station C

Us using measuring tape to measure 2 metres. 

When we were carrying out beach profiling it was low tide, however, due to the weather, our recordings were not accurate. The reason why we needed the low tide was because it gives the whole expense of how big the beach was. We were given 2 long rulers and a measuring tape. We were assisted by Mrs Hariz due the time constraint.

How the rulers are placed.

Together with another 2 groups, we collated our results and recorded it in a table as shown above. The rulers were placed 2 metres apart and the rulers had to be 90 degrees upright to the ground in order to get an accurate reading.  

After gathering our results, we can conclude that as we move closer to the water, the gradient increases slowly.
