Part 5: Oceanography and the real world [10 points]Please answer ONE of the questions below. Do not do both of them, please! Just one.     (1) Surfers come from all around the world to surf at Rincon Point near Santa Barbara. Below, there is an aerial view of Rincon Point. (You can ignore the “cove”, “river mouth”, and “indicator” labels.)  Take a couple of minutes and sketch the diagram (it doesn’t have to include every detail–just the general shape of the land and location of land vs. ocean.) Using the diagram, provide a clear oceanographic explanation of why Rincon Point is such a sweet surf spot.     (2) You’re planning to go to Cabrillo Beach over the Thanksgiving holiday for tidepooling. The Cabrillo Beach tidetables are below. Based on your knowledge of tides: In general, which day (Thursday 25, Friday 26, Saturday 27, or Sunday 28) would be the BEST for tidepooling? (Pick one.) How did you decide? Will tidepooling on the day that you picked be better in the morning, afternoon, OR evening? (Pick one.) How did you decide? Yes OR no—should the tidepools be better exposed a week later (week of December 2 )? How do you know? Which day has the largest range between high tide and low tide? What is the range between high and low tide on this day? Tides for Cabrillo Beach starting with November 25, 2021. Day High Tide Height Sunrise Moon Time % Moon /Low Time Feet Sunset Visible Th 25 High 11:40 AM 4.7 6:35 AM Set 11:46 AM 76 25 Low 8:05 PM 0.6 4:46 PM Rise 10:10 PM F 26 High 4:25 AM 3.8 6:36 AM Set 12:21 PM 67 26 Low 7:51 AM 3.6 4:45 PM Rise 11:11 PM 26 High 1:01 PM 4.3 26 Low 9:04 PM 0.6 Sa 27 High 4:45 AM 4.1 6:37 AM Set 12:53 PM 57 27 Low 9:47 AM 3.1 4:45 PM 27 High 2:40 PM 4.1 27 Low 9:54 PM 0.7 Su 28 High 5:05 AM 4.5 6:37 AM Rise 12:13 AM 47 28 Low 10:53 AM 2.4 4:45 PM Set 1:23 PM 28 High 4:06 PM 4.0 28 Low 10:38 PM 0.7

Part 7: Good Science [9 points] ***READ CAREFULLY!!!*** (It’s not a “trick question” or anything….just make sure that you understand the background before you attempt the question, please.)A team of scientists collected three core samples in the Atlantic Ocean at locations A, B, and C. As you may or may not know, a core sample is collected by drilling into the ocean floor and removing a cylinder-shaped sample of rock and sediment. Then, the core samples are examined in the lab. This provides scientists with a record of which rock layers are present. Unfortunately, the geologists made a huge mistake—they forgot to label which core sample was collected from which location.   Using the data provided above, please answer the following questions on your paper (the same questions are also next to the figures above): Match each core sample (Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat) with the appropriate map location (A, B, C). Using at least 2 different lines of evidence, explain how you arrived at your conclusion. Make a labeled, not-to-scale, side view sketch of the plate boundary present in the study area, including appropriate Earth layers, physical features, and geologic processes occurring.
