Deposition
-
Beaches
-
-
The headlands provide protection from the wind, which decreases emery and therefore increases deposition
-
-
- Waves attack the soft rock cliff, and through erosion processes such as hydraulic action and abrasion, erodes the cliff
- This causes the cliff to retreat backwards, eventually forming a bay
- Through deposition processes, a beach forms within the bay
Sand dunes
-
Formation: Wide, sandy beach, with prevailing winds that blow sediment up he beach
-
Material such as fencing or drift wood helps build up the dune, by capturing the material
Splits and bars
-
-
-
The wind diection can change, creating a hook
