1 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

7 Formation of Sea Stacks Explain how sea stacks form using the words below. Erosion, cave, arch, stack You could also include: Weakness, stump

8 Depositional Features Watch the clip. Afterwards, you will need to draw a labelled sketch of how spits form. http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/th e-formation-of-spits/3246.htmlhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/th e-formation-of-spits/3246.html
