Wetlands are basically dynamic landforms that keep changing from a state of being present and disappearing mainly because they're dependent on the movement of the tidal waves.
Locating and Understanding the site
Attempt of a section through the Sewri Fort and Mudflats
Some observations regarding the site overall
Attempt of the same section- using Plotting method
Wetlands define the state of wetness as being continuous- so through the section we are attempting to show how this entire part is basically just varying degrees of wetness throughout the year - the creek being the most dense considering its all water.
We move from a hard edge of the fort which has basalt rock as the base to the salt pans and then the wetlands and marshier areas which have mangroves in abundance-
We took reference from the Mumbai port trust committee report for depths of The soil layers For the section.
Understanding Coastal Regulation Zones
The latest section is based on imagery from 2021 and we've tried to make sense of the site through the pictures by placing it according to the elevation profile of the section line we cut- which cuts through the fort , wetlands, mangroves , creeks and the BPCL on Trombay island.
