    Sedimentary Characteristics of Sand Dune from Bang Berd, Chumphon Province, Southern Thailand

    28 Sedimentary characteristics of sand dune from Bang Berd, Chumphon Province, Southern Thailand Nattawut Prachantasen1, Montri Choowong2*, Santi Pailoplee2 and Sumet Phantuwongraj2 1 International Logging Overseas Ltd., Bangkok, Thailand 2 Department of Geology, Faculty of Science, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok 10330, Thailand * Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The stratigraphy and sedimentary structures within Bang Berd dune field suggest a geological history that includes paleo-storm deposits. The goal of this project is to characterize the sand dunes in terms of their sedimentological features, including grain size distribution, internal sedimentary structures, wind direction indicators and documenting the evidence for paleo-storm deposits in this area. On aerial photographs, the dunes are aligned in N- W and S-E wind directions. Sand dunes here can be divided, on the basis of their geographic position and their morphological features into 3 units, outer dunes, middle dunes and inner dunes. Interestingly, sedimentary structures within the sand dune are very rare; only well developed inclined lamination can distinguish washover deposits from dune deposits. Both wind-blown and washover sands are very fine-grained, well to very well sorted and subrounded to rounded. The deposition of washover deposits that cover the outer dunes that is aligned in an almost east-west direction may indicate unusual paleo-storm pathways strike into the areas based on alternated washover deposits and dune sequence during 93+18 and 126+14 years ago. Key words: sand dune, washover, OSL, Bang Berd 1. INTRODUCTION Sand dunes occur in many environments, including along sea coasts, lake shores and desert. The direction and velocity of wind, in addition to the local supply of sand, result in a variety of dune shapes and sizes (Fritz and Moore., 1987).

    Ref. No. 15867 29 November 2018 Subject: Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Statements To: President, The Stock Exchange of Thailand Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries Management discussion and analysis of financial statements for the year ended September 30 th , 2018 Overall performance and significant events The overall aviation industry of Thailand during October 2017 - September 2018 has improved comparing to the same period last year. This is in line with growth in the tourism sector. A support from the Thai government on the tourism contributed to such growth. As a consequence, a number of tourists travelling to Thailand increases, especially for Chinese tourists. The rapid expansion of low cost airlines leads to the price competition. This benefits to passengers due to cheaper air fares and the diversity of flight routes. Moreover, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has removed Thailand from the list of significant safety concerns. As a result, Thai airlines can expand its service and increase the number of flights. This is positive to both aviation industry and the overall economy. For the year ended September 30 th , 2018, the air traffic volume from six airports under the Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited (AOT) was 874,999 flights, a 6.24% increase comparing to last year. It comprised 462,225 international flights and 412,774 domestic flights. The total number of passengers was 139.52 million, a 7.99% increase comparing to last year. It comprised 80.49 million international passengers and 59.03 million domestic passengers which mainly from the increase in international flights and passengers.
