Shore & Strata / Story index

Observations from the waterline.

A coastal nature publication about shoreline ecology, sand and rock, and the changes visible where land meets water.

A patient view from the edge can reveal movement and habitat relationships without lifting rocks or handling animals.

Colour, apparent grain size and visible fragments are useful clues, but a photograph alone is not a mineral identification.

A consistent viewpoint and clear context help distinguish an observation from a dramatic before-and-after story.

Washed-up natural material can be part of a shore's habitat and food relationships, rather than an untidy gap between sea and dunes.
