Question

one proposed project to help restore Louisiana wetlands is to backfill canals that were built for access to and transportation of oil from the coastal area. Why might scientists first want to build and study a model of their proposed object?

Answer 1

Scientists would probably want to model this first so they will identify the outcome instead of creating a large catastrophe. It wouldn't be an upright idea for scientists to begin a project without knowing if it will work, the consequence, and if it’s safe to do on the land.
