Criteria Feedback
- The student frames a clear, geographical question that is linked to coastal processes and dune succession theory.
- The student's local and national maps use key conventions and make the study area easy to locate.
- The student explains the Mambrui setting well enough to show why it is suitable for primary fieldwork.
- The student's map would be stronger if it showed the exact transect line and sampling points.
- The dependent variable could have been defined more precisely to make the enquiry even sharper.

- The student uses methods that are relevant to the enquiry, including transect sampling, quadrats, anemometer readings, ruler measurements, and pH testing.
- The student's sampling approach is logically connected to the coastal gradient they are investigating.
- The student explains the procedure clearly enough that the investigation can be followed.
- The method for measuring dune height is not clearly described even though dune height is used later in the work.
- Some procedural details are missing, such as exact quadrat placement, calibration, and how many repeats were taken at each point.
