Call it an 'oversimplification' to definitively say one is better than the other.
Hard engineering projects are generally better at actually preventing coastal erosion, but are often very expensive, aesthetically unpleasing and can harm to environment. Some hard engineering projects also exacerbate problems in other areas
Soft engineering projects on the other hand, are significantly cheaper as they are more based on planning and making strategic decisions to save as much as possible without the massive costs. You should mention, however, that in the short-term this can be more expensive than hard engineering projects such as land use management forcing property developers to use more expensive land away from the coast, thus raising the prices for consumers.

thank you to you sir you may have saved my geography career!!
Shield volcanoes are formed along constructive plate boundaries where the tectonic plates are moving away from each other. This creates a gap allowing rising magma to erupt st the surface and then solidify to create a shield volcano

Does anyone have any idea for: restless earth, ice on land and coastal zone? much appreciated
Little bits for Restless earth and things to revise, hope this helps
The structure of the earth; Inner core, Outer core, Mantle and the crust. The two different types. Oceanic and Continental.
Plate boundaries- Destructive; Where two plates collide and one plate flows beneath the other- subduction, examples- Nazca plate and South American Plate. Constructive; Rising convection current pulls crust apart forming volcanic ridges- Mid Atlantic Ridge, E.G Eurasian and North American Plate. Conservative- Two plates slide past each other, earthquakes occur here, e.g San Andreas Fault, California. Collision- Two continental plates collide and the two plates buckle- earthquakes. E.g Indo-Australian and Eurasian Plates.
Volcanic Hazards from Shield Volcanoes to Composite Volcanoes
Earthquake hazard, examples- Kashmir 2005 and California in 1999 (CASESTUDIES)
Hati- 7.0 on the Richter scale (CASE STUDY) Primary Impacts and Secondary Impacts
Managing Earthquakes and Volcanic hazards.
Signs of Volcano nearing eruption, increase gas emissions and soil temperature.
Earthquake preparation.
What is needed after a natural disaster- CASESTUDY. Izmit Earthquake 1999 Immediate response and relief efforts.
Wouldn't revise Kielder water - came up last year. Wouldn't revise tsunami - came up 2 years ago Wouldn't revise management strategies ( coastal zone ) - came up last year That's 3 less
Don't take this completely on board though coz AQA love to throw us in at the deep end hahah
do we need to know a eruption of a volcano for a MEDC or just a LEDC
On my checklist you only need one example (the LEDC and MEDC bit isnt really significant, just thought I'd put it in there) but the earthquake needs both as a compare question could come up
