This document contains instructions for multiple choice questions about conducting fieldwork and research on coastal environments and management. The questions ask students to analyze photographs of coastlines, describe fieldwork and research methods on topics like coastal development and erosion, and explain approaches to coastal management and the factors involved in decisions around management strategies.
