OCR B GCSE (9-1) Geography: Physical Fieldwork and Geographical Skills

What is the title of our physical fieldwork?

• To what extent does the River Warren follow the Brasdale Model?

• To what extent does the River Warren follow the Bradshaw Model?

• How far does Winnie the Pooh affect the River Warren?

• To what extent is the River Ashdown a Warren?

• Has Ansh remembered his wellies?

Which of these is not a channel variable?

• bedload size

• velocity

• bedload shape

• river width

• upper course

Which of these would you use to measure wind speed in physical fieldwork?

• flowmeter

• anemometer

• weather vein

• leaf

Which of these is the most appropriate way to present the following data?

• scatter graph

• pie chart

• line graph

• climate graph

A student is investigating the impact of coastal engineering on geomorphic processes. They took this photo during their fieldwork. What are the visible features?

• beach

• bay

• sea wall

• rock armour

• groynes

Which of these is a secondary data collection method?

• using a clinometer to measure gradient

• using the weather forecast to find out atmospheric pressure

• using a ping pong ball to estimate river velocity

• using a tape measure to measure channel width

Which of these would have helped to improve the accuracy of our gradient measurement?

• using ranging poles

• repeating the experiment and calculating a mean

• using a clinometer with a higher resolution

• always measuring from the same specified point of the river channel

This GIS map was created by a student to show mean sediment size along a beach. How could they adapt it to make it more informative?

• insert a scale

• add a north arrow

• location

• survey more sites

• direction of longshore drift / prevailing wind

This table shows the frequency of some weather hazards, 1980-2015. Which is the most suitable graph for presenting the tropical storms column?

• bar graph

• climate graph

• line graph

• pie chart

According to the Bradshaw Model, which of these channel variables increases going downstream?

• discharge

• channel bed roughness

• average velocity

• occupied channel width

• gradient
