What is the difference between a jetty and a groyne?
These two terms are often used interchangeably to refer to the short, shore perpendicular structures that are built along a shoreline to hold sand in place. However, technically speaking, groins and jetties are not the same thing. Groins are the smaller shore perpendicular structures, built to trap sand and stabilize a sandy beach. Jetties are large structures typically used to stabilize inlet channels.
What is the difference between a groyne and a seawall?
Compare and contrast seawalls and groins
Two ways to reduce the effects of mining?
Eating and cleaning minerals with h2o2
Does a repeater reduce the effects of attenuation for a digital transmission signal?
It depends on the repeater. Those that receive a signal, buffer it in real time and pass it on as a digital signal will reduce the effects of attenuation. Those that receive a signal and regenerate it with a new clock signal will generally eliminate the effects of attenuation completely.The type of repeater used depends on where and how it is used as well as the signal that is being transmitted.
Describe 2 ways to reduce the effects of mining?
Stop using explosives, stop surface and subsurface mining, and start recycling
What are groins and breakwaters?
Structures built to protect beaches
What are groins breakwaters and seawalls?

What is a barrier built at a right angle to the beach to trap sand that is moving parallel to the shore?
groins
What can you do to counteract the negative effects of physical changes in nature?
Build groins and seawalls is one example of what you can do.
What is called a barrier built at a right angle to the beach for the purpose of trapping sand that is moving parallel to the shore?
groins
What are ocean groins?
ocean groins are human-built structures put at a right angle to the shoreline to prevent the erosion, deposition and weathering of the shore. Jetties and breakwaters are also used for this reason. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:53sitges.jpg
How many groins to you have?
I do not have a physical body, so I do not have any groins.
What has been done to reduce the worst effects of tourism in majorca?
To reduce the worst effects of tourism in Majorca, areas have been set aside in order to preserve the natural state of the land. Restrictions on the areas where cars may travel and where stores and restaurants are built have also helped to reduce these negative effects.
What are women's groins called?
The anatomical term for women's groins is the pubic region or inguinal area.
What do groins do?
Groins prevent longshore drift from touching the beach as a part of the many ways that people can prevent beach erosion.
Do walrus have groins?
Yes, Yes they do ;)
What coastal structures are designed to keep tidal inlets from shifting location or filling with sand?
Coastal structures designed to maintain the position of tidal inlets and prevent them from filling with sand include jetties and groins. Jetties are built at the entrance of inlets to stabilize the channel and protect it from sediment accumulation, while groins are constructed along the shoreline to interrupt sediment transport and reduce erosion. Together, these structures help manage tidal flow and sediment dynamics, ensuring the functional integrity of inlets.
