Deposition
Transportation
wave bought sandy deposits
an increase or decrease in
water to land every day
wind bought sandy deposits to
sea
sediment deposited
wave bought sediment through
flowing
Additional information
Follow the trail to Yim Tin Tsai for a bird's
eye view of the sand bar linking Yim Tin
Tsai and Ma Shi Chau. In geological terms,
this is called a "tombolo"(連島沙州).
 A bulletin board with details of Ma Shi
Chau Special Area can be found at the
starting point of the Nature Trail.

Site5
Tensional
or compressional forces
originating from tectonic movement
faults are prone to weathering and
erosion
material in rocks: iron( contains
oxygen)
change rock’s size
colour: red and brown
The Formation of Exdogenetic Process
Mighty nature : folding
 nature shapes rocks into various
forms
rocks are folded
folds are warps in rock layers caused
by compressional forcesand
are most apparent in sedimentary
rock with sedimentary beddings
the pressure stronger than the limit
the rock layers can withstand is applied,
rocks will be cracked and displaced
Chong Chi Hing’s Feeling

In this field trip , I think the most terrible thing is that I
have never got into a rough time which was the heavy
rain . It was really uncomfortable ! However , I think I
enjoy the learning experience of this field trip because I
can learn more about Geography and some information
more deeper .Not only that , I think my member , Cheung
Yuk Ying who is the best one taking the essential role in
my group . She did not only do things actively and being a
domestic helper but also took care of every member in
our group .Therefore , I think she is very sensible in this
group . I think I have honor because of her . Therefore I
think this field trip is quite meaningful .
Cheung Yuk Ying’s Feeling

This flied trip is memorable! I can learn
much more than studying on the
lesson!There were some obstacles in this
field trip.The road is difficult to walk and
because the help of my members, I can
finish the field trip and insist to not give up.
Ho Yan Chak’s Feeling

I learn a lot of things in this field trip. I can learn
many things other than books, we must see it by
our eyes. So I very agree this field trip.But I am
not happy because the weather is not good in that
day .I was sick after that day, I think it was caused
by the rain. At the same time, I build up a good
relationship with my members.
Lau Mei Kuen’s Feeling
I am very happy to have a field trip. For me,
I am not good at Geography . Sometimes, I
think it is quiet difficult to understand the
endogenetic process(folding, compression,
etc). But I enjoyed it because I do not have
this kind of opportunity in daily life.
 My most impressed thing is that rain falling
down during the field trip! Many of us were
wet and surely felt surprised!
