Collaborations between these two areas are a recent development, yet a scientific basis for safety information is crucial to better understanding how to avoid and mitigate the hazard presented by rip currents. One such area is the field of swimmer escape strategies. Contemporary safety advice is divided on the relative merits of a ‘Stay Afloat’ versus ‘Swim Parallel’ strategy, yet conceptual understanding of both these strategies is largely based on an idealised model of rip current morphology and flow dynamics where channels are incised in shore-connected bars.

  • Cronulla SLSC Annual Report 2013-14
    CRONULLA SURF LIFE SAVING CLUB 107TH ANNUAL REPORT 2013-2014 SEASON MICHAEL BANISTER’S MERITORIOUS AWARD On Sunday 1st of January 2012 at approximately 7 p.m., Club Member, Michael Banister and his family after parking their car at the southern end of Prince Street, North Cronulla started walking along the Esplanade south towards Cronulla Beach. As they walked, Michael noticed a group of approximately ten people playing on a sand bank close to the shore. Two of this group were further out and had jumped into a large hole not realizing they had jumped into a rip. They managed to drift south with the rip onto an outer bank where they were able to stand. It was at this stage Michael said to his wife Sue that they were in a dangerous place. Michael and his family continued their walk and made it to the Alley Rock Pool when Michael noticed that two of the group was trying to swim back to the inner bank across the gully that had formed a strong rip. They were not strong swimmers and started to struggle, but they were lucky enough to get back to the outer bank. At this point Michael became concerned about their safety. He decided to return to North Cronulla, while his wife Sue continued on to collect the children who had run ahead to Cronulla. As Michael started walking back, two of the swimmers attempted to swim back to the inner bank again. They started to struggle as the rip seemed to be stronger. At this stage Michael summed up the situation and formed a plan for rescuing the two.

Our national parks, harbour, beaches, coastal walks, waterfront promenades, rivers, playgrounds and reserves are integral to the character and life of the city. In this report the hydrological, recreational and ecological fragments of the city are mapped and then pulled together into a proposition for a cohesive green infrastructure network for greater Sydney. This report builds on investigations undertaken by the Office of the Government Architect for the Department of Planning and Environment in the development of District Plans. It interrogates the vision and objectives of the Sydney Green Grid and uses a combination of GIS data mapping and consultation to develop an overview of the green infrastructure needs and character of each district. FINAL REPORT 23.03.17 Each district is analysed for its spatial qualities, open space, PREPARED BY waterways, its context and key natural features.

  • Riot and Revenge: Symmetry and the Cronulla Riot in Abe Forsythe's
    Riot and Revenge: Symmetry and the Cronulla Riot in Abe Forsythe’s Down Under Kenta McGrath Abstract: Abe Forsythe’s Down Under (2016) is the first narrative feature film about the Cronulla riot—the infamous event on 11 December 2005 where over 5000 white Australians, responding to a minor local incident, descended on Cronulla Beach in Sydney and proceeded to harass, chase and bash anybody who they perceived to be of Middle Eastern appearance. In the following nights, a series of violent retaliatory attacks took place, as community leaders called for calm. Suvendrini Perera identifies how a symmetrical narrative had emerged in the wake of the riot and its aftermath, whereby Cronulla Beach “comes to stand for a paired sequence of events, the riot and the revenge, in a fable of equivalence in which two misguided groups . mirror each other’s ignorance and prejudices”. This article considers how Down Under reinforces the distortive implications of this “riot and revenge” narrative by maintaining a structural equilibrium—through the rigorous balancing of its narrative and characters, and formally, via its soundtrack, cinematography and editing patterns. In so doing, and despite its antiracist sentiments, the film ultimately dilutes the issue of race and obscures the power imbalances that informed the riot, and which continue to this day. Introduction During the first week of December 2005, news of an incident on Cronulla Beach spread throughout Sydney: three white off-duty lifesavers had been involved in an altercation with four young men of Lebanese background and were bashed. Within the Sutherland Shire—known colloquially as “The Shire”, a predominantly Anglo area of southern Sydney which includes Cronulla Beach—a sense of communal outrage gained momentum as news, rumours and misinformation about the incident circulated.

  • Chapter 6 Wave Energy, Bathymetry and Sediments
    85 CHAPTER 6 WAVE ENERGY, BATHYMETRY AND SEDIMENTS The seaward extent of each beach system has been identified in terms of the offshore bathymetry "and pattern of sediments. The beach systems all display a seaward fining textural gradient indicating a common response to orthogonal wave power. Shore normal wave-sediment inter­ action can be accounted for in terms of the null-point theory, However, the point of incipient sediment motion for most beach systems is determined by a sediment bedrock interface rather than a textural discontinuity. Differences in bathymetry along the coast imply a complex relationship between wave energy, bathymetry and sediment distribution. A simple expression of this relationship is given in Figure 6-1. FIGURE 6-1 WAVE BATHYMETRY INTERACTION BEDROCK BATHYMETRY -^ WAVE CLIMATE DEPOSITIONAL BATHYMETRY ^- SEDIMENT PATTERNS In this chapter, wave energy values are calculated for each beach in an attempt to define the distribution of energy along the coast and the relationship with bathymetry and sediments. A model of offshore bathymetry and sediment patterns is proposed for the Sydney coast. Wave Energy Distribution Two factors govern the available wave energy at each beach, the deep water wave characteristics and the bathymetry, The deep water wave characteristics, although temporarily variable, have been defined for the Sydney coast in Chapter 3 86 and comprise a dominant long period south easterly swell of 12 seconds, with secondary waves from the East and Northeast quarters. The deepwater wave energy is redistributed upon entering shallow water, due largely to refraction, diffraction, shoaling and bed friction caused by the impedence of orbital water motion by the sea bed.
