Blog Response Number 1

At conferences I mentioned that I would like to try to get more interaction in my BLOG from students and families that might want to interact.

 

This month’s challenge  is:

Read this article posted on the New York Times website about sand dunes and protecting beaches.

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/04/science/earth/after-hurricane-sandy-dunes-prove-they-blunt-storms.html?_r=0

 

After reading this story, How would you feel about placing dunes along the Oregon coast?  Are they necessary? And, can you suggest other ways to protect our coastlines from storms?  I look forward to reading your comments.  (Students, remember to use name and last initial only.  Your email will not be published but is necessary in order to receive your comment.  Also, think about currents, waves, tsunamis, and other ocean related topics we have studied.)

Up to 5 extra credit points for thoughtful science based comments per student.
