–33 Standard #1 • Obtain a topographic relief map and a corresponding paper contour map of a coastal area (preferably in Massachusetts). Use both maps to demonstrate the changes in the coastline that would occur if the sea level were to rise by various amounts. • Use topographic maps to explain an environmental problem, its location, its cause, and a proposed solution. • Construct a clinometer. If suitable terrain is available, use a clinometer to determine the height of geologic features, the slope
