A Question of Coasts 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

1 Longshore drift Why have they built a groyne here?

2 Weathering = ROCKS BREAK UP Erosion = ROCKS WEAR AWAY

3 Which arrow best shows the direction of longshore drift?

4

5 Why is it eroding quicker here? Longshore drift

6 What type of erosion? Cor! Aaah! Fire hydrant

7 What type of erosion?

8 Now that’s what you call a long ?????? – from all directions Hawaii Even this = 2500km Hawaii Now that’s what you call a long ?????? – from all directions

9 How did the rock type help cause the landslide?
