2. Shoreline Erosion

3. Shoreline Erosion What happens to eroded rock?
Rock that is eroded is carried towards the ocean as sediment
Becomes sand
Becomes deltas
Becomes sea-bed

4. Shoreline Erosion Shoreline Erosional Landforms Headlands Sea Cave
Sea Arches
Sea Stacks
Wave-Cut Terrence
Beaches

5. Shoreline Erosion Headlands Finger-shaped projections
Form when sea cliffs erode
Hard rock erodes faster than the soft rock

6. Shoreline Erosion Sea Cave Waves cut large holes into the headlands
Occur more often in cliffs of sedimentary rock

7. Shoreline Erosion Sea Arch
Waves continue to erode sea caves until it completely cuts through creating an arch

8. Shoreline Erosion Sea stack
Columns of hard rock that were once connected to a headland
Waves erode through a sea arch creating these stacks

9. Shoreline Erosion Wave-cut terrace
Created when sea cliffs are worn back
Creating a platform or step at the base of the sea cliff

10. Shoreline Erosion Beach
An area of the shoreline made up of material deposited by waves
Created once a sea cliff has been completely eroded

11. Erosional Landforms Summary: What happens to eroded rock?
What are some shoreline erosional landforms?

12. Objective 12/19/12
Explain how landforms are created through erosional processes.
Outro
Using a Flow-Map, show how headlands can eventually become beaches.
