Digital Landscape

Anapa bay bar is a valuable recreational-medical resource. Digital landscape-morphological mapping of its the Northern-Western part was created by digital aero survey materials for monitoring of its statement. Compiled maps show that in the Western part of region dune belt is degradated, front dune hills destroyed due to spreading of settlement Veselovka buildings to beach, and due to mass enactments carrying out at bay bar of lake Solenoe. Here it is necessary to decide the problem of defense from waves flooding by construction of artificial hills. The middle part of region, around Bugaz lagoon, is using for unregulated recreation of extreme sportsmen – windsurfing and kiting – with seasonal recreation in camping from tent-city and campers. Many short roads to sea beach, orthogonal to coast line, have been transformed to corridors of blowing and sea waves interaction to lagoon lowland with dune belt destroying. In the Eastern part of region, at Bugaz bay bar, dune belt is conserve, it changes under natural sea and wind processes action. At some places sea waves are erode windward front dune slope. Just everywhere sand accumulative trains are forming at leeward slope of front dune. Showed peculiarities of landscape morphological structure mast be taken in account due treatment of measures for bay bar defense and keeping.

Polished and rounded surfaces of rock are, under their more ordinary conditions, of very frequent occurrence in Argyllshire. By “their more ordinary conditions,” I mean principally two—viz., Where they occur on the existing coast-line, either at, or not far above the present level of the sea; secondly, Where they occur in valleys, or the lower flanks of the hills,—whether under the boulder clay, or on surfaces naturally exposed.

Raised Beaches

In Professor Prestwich's important paper on the Raised Beaches of the South of England the following passage occurs: “In Torbay there are small portions of a Raised Beach near Paignton…” As on the strength of this statement the line of Raised Beaches is carried in the map round the extreme present limits of Torbay, and the hitherto universally accepted doctrine, that Raised Beaches do not occur in the softer parts of the coast-line, is thus controverted, the assertion is one of considerable importance.

Probable Explanation

In the latest number of the Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society there is a description by Mr. D. Pigeon, F.G.S., of recent discoveries in the submerged Forest of Torbay. The paper is highly interesting, and records many facts, valuable alike to the geologist and archæologist. But the inferences he draws from them in opposition to Mr. Pengelly, though not altogether unchallenged in the discussion of his paper, were not contradicted as emphatically as they might have been. As I take interest in, and have observed signs of upheaval and depression along our coast-line, and believe that scarcely any part of the coast is at rest, I beg leave to protest against this latest of several attempts to show, that remains of forests, now beneath the sea-level, originally grew at the levels they now occupy. We know that it is possible that forests might grow at a lower level than the sea until a protecting dam gave way and they became overwhelmed; but I would ask whether there is any example of such growing anywhere round the coasts of Great Britain to-day, and whether there is anything to lead to the belief that there were, at the epochs of these submerged forests, any physical conditions that rendered it more probable that forests might have grown below high-water mark along the coasts, then than now. To admit that there were, would admit a change of some kind, presumably of level, which is what I maintain. My own idea is that the physiography, of the south coast at least, is entirely opposed to the growth of forests behind dykes below the sea-level, and that the only probable explanation of their present position is a subsidence of the area on which they grew. This seems so self-evident that I should hardly have thought any other view could have been supported. The conclusion I take most particular exception to is this: “That a coast which has remained stationary for the last 2000 years should have made such active use of the preceding twelve or twenty centuries for the purposes of oscillation, is rather hard of belief.” In the first place there is no sort of evidence that the coast was stationary for 2000 years, and in the second, were it so, it would not present any reason to my mind why evidence of the occurrence of oscillations in the 2000 years preceding should be rejected.

Fisheries Regulation

The powers conferred on the Board of Trade, under the Sea Fisheries Regulation Act of 1888, to create, upon the application of a County or Borough Council, a local Fisheries District, and to provide for the constitution of a Local Fisheries Committee for the regulation of the sea fisheries carried on within the district, have been requisitioned by the majority of the Councils of the maritime counties of England and Wales, and at the present time Fisheries Districts and Fisheries Committees are constituted around nearly the whole coast line, the Committees having jurisdiction over all fishing carried on within the three-mile limit. The only portion of coast still unprovided for is that which lies in the counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, between Happisburg and Dovercourt.
