C2.4: TYPES OF COASTS

Slide 4 - Slide

Today's goals
  1. You can explain how the height and strength of a wave is determined.
  2. You can give the connection between the strength of the backflow of the sea and the
    build-up or breakdown of the coast. 
  3. You can explain how a sedimentary coast eventually leads to the formation of dunes
    (G91).

Slide 5 - Slide

Sedimentary coast

Slide 6 - Slide

Sedimentary coast
Coast where the waves leave more material behind than they take away.

Slide 7 - Slide

You can explain how the height and strength of a wave is determined.
"Movement in a body of water, usually caused by wind blowing over the surface."
Height and strenght depend on three factors:
  1. Wind force
  2. Length of time that the wind blows
  3. Distance travelled by waves

Slide 8 - Slide

The power of waves
Look at page 30 in your coursebook.
  • Figure 14: 7 steps of the power of waves.

Make question 1 in your workbook. Use figure 14.

Abrasion (cliffed) coast

Slide 10 - Slide

Abrasion coast
Steep coast which forms when the sea erodes the lower slopes.

Erosion: The abrasion of hard rock by water, ice and wind, carrying weathered material.

How are erosion coasts formed?
Write down the numbers in chronological order from left to right.
  1. Salt crystals stick together. Because of this, holes and cracks are growing.
  2. Waves are crashing onto the lower layers of the cliff.
  3. Because of erosion, a hole is formed in the cliff.
  4. A part of the cliff is breaking off.
  5. Salt crystals are left behind in the holes in the cliff.
  6. Holes in the cliff are becoming too big; upper parts are becoming too heavy.
