Topic 5 – Contrasting Coasts GCSE Unit 1 Revision
2
Coastal Processes What are the main processes that occur at the coast?
3
Do you know the definitions? Erosion (hydraulic action, abrasion …) Transportation (Longshore drift) Deposition Weathering (Freeze thaw) Mass movement (rotational slumping)
4
Practice question Draw a labelled diagram to show how material is transported along the coastline. (4 marks)
5
What are the strengths and weaknesses of this answer? Is it worth 4 marks?
6
Erosional Features Watch the clip, writing the names of landforms you hear. (Do you need reminding what a coastal landform is?!!!) http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/coa stal-erosion-and-landforms/9966.html
