    So I was looking over the 2008 paper, and I'm a bit confused by Question 1C. It's your basic human interaction with natural processes question (fluvial, marine, mass movement), but I was checking the marking scheme and I'm confused as to whether you can talk about a non-Irish example of a Dam for the bulk of your answer? The marking scheme says

    "Influence / control identified: 2 marks
    Named Example: 2 marks
    Reference to natural processes: 2 marks
    Discussion: 12 x SRPs

    >Mere discussion without tie into influence / control = Max 6 xSRPs
    >Credit 2nd example from discussion
    >Examples not tied to Ireland
    >Amalgamate all relevant discussion"

    I was planning on mentioning an Irish example of a dam, but then talking about the Three Gorges in China for the rest of the SRPs, can I do this?
