Procesos costeros

The video tutorial explains the three essential processes that shape coastlines: erosion, transport, and deposition. Erosion involves the wearing away of surfaces by destructive waves, which can occur through abrasion, trition, and dissolution. Transport refers to the movement of materials along the coast, often in a zigzag pattern due to coastal drift. This process can happen through solution, suspension, exaltation, and attraction. Deposition occurs when the sea loses energy, causing materials to settle. These processes contribute to the dynamic nature of coastlines.

What is coastal drift and how does it occur?

Define deposition and explain when it occurs in relation to wave energy.
