Examine the factors affecting the development of landforms of coastal deposition (25). Coastal environment is the dynamic interface between land and sea with many distinctive coastal landforms‚ given rise by a range of physical processes‚ including deposition. Beaches are landforms of deposition. Its development is affected by wave characteristics‚ specifically constructive wave. They have long wavelengths are long and wave height often less than one metre. The breaking waves have low levels

12.1 Weathering 1-7 Mechanical and chemical weathering are different because mechanical is when a rock is split and then worn down by the elements‚ and chemical weathering is when different minerals and substances are changed in a rock. Ice and water are involved in chemical weathering because the water soaks into the cracks of the rock and then it freezes and expands so the rock is split more. Upward expansion is related to mechanical weathering because when the rocks are lifted up they become

Coastal Erosion and its Economic Implications for Delmarva Many geologic processes affect the landscape of the Delmarva Peninsula drastically‚ but one specific process has major economic implications as well. The process of coastal erosion‚ which is defined as the actual removal of sand from a beach to deeper water offshore or alongshore into inlets‚ tidal shoals and bays‚ is one of the most detrimental geologic events to this region’s economy (Scientific American). This type of erosion can result

2.7 Farmers’ perception of soil erosion Perception‚ according to Lewin (1951)‚ one of the foremost authors in the behavioral studies‚ is a behavioral product of individual life space or what he also calls the psychological environment. To‚ Cox (1972)‚ perception is a “pieces of knowledge‚ which are acquired by the individual as a result of his visual‚ tactile‚ verbal and auditory contacts with the environment about him”. It is the stimulus/response aspect of the process of decision-making with the

corrosion resistance properties. However‚ AISI 304L stainless steel undergoes extensive wear and erosion when applied as components in aggressive environments such as petro- chemical and marine atmosphere [1]. Solid particle erosion is defined as the progressive loss of material from a solid surface due to mechanical interaction between the surface and some fluid entrained with solid particles. [2]‚ such erosion leads to degradation of mechanical components and eventually leads to catastrophic failure

Case Study: Coastal Erosion: Holderness Location | * Holderness is an area of the East Riding of Yorkshire‚ on the east coast of England. * Sub-cell that stretches from Flanborough Head to Spurn Head. | Erosion | * Fastest eroding coastline in the UK. * Rapidly retreating coastline. * At Flanborough Head‚ the average erosion is greater than 10cm a year. * By Mappleton‚ the average erosion is greater than 200cm a year. * At Spurn Head‚ 500000 tonnes of sand is moved by the sea
