Aan de hand van een verhaal over vier kinderen krijg je in dit prentenboek heel wat informatie over het milieu en wat je kan doen om de wereld groener te maken. In hoofdstukjes van een dubbele bladzijde komen de kinderen meer te weten over klimaatverandering, afvalverwerking, recycling, upcycling, eco-eten, duurzame energie en CO2 uitstoot. Bij elk onderwerp vind je kleine kaders met 'stop en denk na' en 'kom in actie'. Daarin vind je zaken om eens verder over na te denken, over je eigen leven thuis en op school. Met achteraan in het boek een verklarende woordenlijst en een aantal websites waar je nog meer informatie kan vinden over dit onderwerp.

This book describes recent advances in the morphodynamics of mixed sand and gravel Mediterranean coasts, and provides updates and new methods for their study and management. It assesses how the differences in the geomorphic setting, in comparison with traditional sandy beaches, result in distinctive physical processes governing the dynamics of these coasts. Further, on the basis of field measurements, theoretical analysis and numerical modeling carried out at two study sites in southern Spain over the last 15 years, the book studies, analyzes and compares these physical processes and mechanisms. It also shows that the narrow and complex bathymetries and inner shelves modify the wave propagation patterns and hence, the longshore sediment transport gradients along the coast. Given the correlation between the changes in these gradients and the shoreline evolution over time, it identifies the complexity of the inner shelf bathymetries as the main driver of coastal changes and describes these processes in detail using, in the plan view, the inter-annual evolution of unaltered and “altered by human” beaches. Lastly, the book details how the generation and subsequent overlapping of berms across the beach profile are responsible for the sediment variability at depth and cross-shore, and concludes that the total run-up (including the water-level) is a more influential variable than wave height in the erosional/depositional response of these beaches.
