Coasts

Coasts. Coasts can be ???? ??????? erosional or depositional. Parts of a beach. Wave refraction along a straight coast. The gentler the beach slope, the finer the beach sediments tend to be, as can be seen from these profiles of the Half Moon Bay, California. Elevation (ft).

Coastal Features Headlands and Bays

Coastal Features Headlands and Bays A headland is an area of land which juts out to sea and is surrounded by sea on three sides. Headlands form in coastlines where there are hard rocks and soft rocks which causes differential erosion.

Shoreline Erosion and Deposition

By: Nate, Johnny, Chris, Taylor, Ben. Shoreline Erosion and Deposition. Wave Energy. Wind makes ripples which make waves. The bigger the wave the more dramatic a shore erodes. When a wave hits a rock several times in a row, it keeps breaking down until it is sand.
