Features of coastal deposition

With reference to specific examples, You can describe and explain the formation of:

       Ø     Beach
       Ø     Spit
       Ø     bar
       Ø     tombolo



Spit

Longshore drift moves material along a coastline. Where there is an obstruction or the power
of the waves is reduced the material is deposited. Where rivers or estuaries meet the sea
deposition often occurs. The sediment which is deposited usually builds up over the years to
form a long ridge of material (usually sand or shingle). Such a ridge is called a spit. Spurn
Head on the Holderness Coast is an example of this feature.
