Coastal Erosion Learning objectives To be able to define the five processes of marine coastal erosion . To be able to explain the factors affecting coastal erosion. To describe the difference between concordant and discordant WHAT IS COASTAL EROSION? Coastal erosion is the endless reshaping of shorelines by waves, currents, tides, storms, ice, rain and groundwater seepage. Human activities, like construction, dredging, CO Interacting Elements of the Coastal System. Types of Coastlines in NZ. Rocky shorelines. Form on high energy coasts where the ocean meets mountains or sea cliffs. Sandy beaches. Mainland, pocket and barrier beaches. Tlatli-Hariga. . Nejla. UCAR/INAT Tunisia. Definition of Climate Change. NASA’s definition of climate change . is:. “. a broad range of global phenomena created predominantly by burning fossil fuels, which add heat-trapping gases to Earth’s atmosphere. These phenomena include the increased temperature . 2. What are the main types of soft and hard engineering used on the coastline of the UK? . (Coastal defences). Advantages and disadvantages of these techniques. 3. Definitions. Soft engineering: . method of coastal management which works with natural processes at work on the coastline and to be .
