what do we need to know about mangrove swamps???? lol and I cant believe it on Tuesday arghhhhhhhhhh

Mangrove swamps are areas between land and sea in which trees and shrubs grow. They are only found in areas where the climate is tropical, the shore is soft and muddy (so they can root) freshwater is present and a shallow slope is present.

what were the causes of an earthquake again? I wrote about:

destructive plate boundary
convection currents move plates
subduction of oceanic plate
sudden release of pressure
sends shockwaves which caused the earthquake
thats about right isn't it?

I did Haiti: But it wasn't a destructive plate boundary: It was a conservative plate boundary?
But yh depending on your case study that sounds about right!
Hope it went well for everyone :smile:

For the plate tectonics 7 mark question the mark scheme is the same as the 2015 June series plate tectonics question

I did Population, Rivers and Industry/Tourism, but 3/4 markers for rivers was dodgy tbh. Also disliked 5 marker for Industry (although you couldn't ask for an easier 3 mark).

How was industry? I scanned through it and it looked kind of weird so I did farming instead. Farming was pretty simple to be honest...
