1 Welcome to Science 11/29 Come up to the cart and carefully select a cup of water.

2 Weathering and Erosion

3 When you think of a beach, what images pop into your mind?

4 What makes a beach/shoreline? 1. weathering- the breakdown of rock 2. erosion- the movement of weathered rock 3. deposition- the dropping off of weathered rock

5 How does the process start? What do we need to begin the process of weathering, erosion, and deposition? Wave Energy The stronger a wave is, the more W, E, and D can take place.

6 Putting it all together. Waves break down rocks along shorelines. The stronger the waves, the more weathering occurs. Waves transport weathered rock particles to different locations. Waves deposit the rock particles along shorelines, forming beaches.

7 Coastal Erosion What are the 4 ways that the sea erodes the coast – the different types of erosion? Don’t forget, weathering is also at work on the coastline as well

8 THE LANDFORMS

9 What are they? How are they formed? Headlands and Bays

10 Some Headlands

11

12

13 And Some Bays

14 Headlands and Bays Together

15 How are they formed? Its all about differential erosion!!!!!!!!

16 Cliffs, Caves, Arches and Stacks.

17 The Headland is Attacked!!!

18 Besides beaches, what other features can waves create? Sea Cliffs Most Dramatic Sea Cliffs in the World |

19 The Stages of Erosion

20 Cracks Become Caves NOVA | How Caves Form NOVA | How Caves Form Cave formation on Ballintoy coast, Ireland

21 Caves Become Arches Bob's Arches - Sea Arches

22 Arches Become Stacks Spectacular Sea Stacks

23 And now……….

24 Wave Cut Notches and Platforms

25 From Wiki Wave cut platform at Southerndown, South Wales
