Analysis(1)  Create 3 vectors, one for each of the beach profiles, that were measured and plot all 3 profiles in one subplot. Mark the water line on each profile. Label your graph and include units. a.    What features can be identified in the two beach profiles? Discuss seasonal variances. (2)  Calculate the area of sand under each measured profile segment, find the sum of sand above the initial waterline (foreshore) and past the initial waterline (nearshore) for each profile, and calculate the volume of sand being moved either offshore or onshore in each scenario (units should be a cubic volume).(3)  Calculate the distance of shoreline advancement or recession in each scenario. Discuss discrepancies. (4)  Based on the results of this lab discuss the importance of the various wave parameters and shoreline characteristics and how they play a role in the shorelines that are seen at the beach. a.    How does wave energy affect the profiles of the beach based on the season? (5)  Plot surface displacement versus time. Label figures accordingly.  a.    Find the theoretical wave height from the Sensor data and the period from either the motor frequency or the Wave Sensor. b.    Calculate the theoretical wavelength. c.    Compare these values with measured wave characteristics. (6)  Find the corresponding group celerity for measured and theoretical values of the summer and winter waves. Discuss discrepancies. Extra CreditProve deep water asymptote for factor n is 1 and the shallow water asymptote is 0.5. Show all steps and include justification for any assumptions made. How does this relate to this lab? Include this in Appendix D of lab report.
