Landforms created by Longshore Drift HOW ARE SPITS AND BARS FORMED? Spits are sand or pebble beaches joined to the land at one end. They are features of coastal deposition and tend to be formed by longshore drift. Most extend at a gentle angle out to sea or grow across a river mouth. ...
In addition all the human and physical geography options are covered (tropical, coastal, and hazardous environments, desert landforms, production and change, environmental management, global interdependence, and the management of a tourist destination.

Coast, broad area of land that borders the sea. A brief treatment of coasts follows. For full treatment, see coastal landforms. The coastlines of the world’s continents measure about 312,000 km (193,000 miles). They have undergone shifts in position ove

In Britain we often think of thecoast as being formed by the energy ofthe waves, largely due to theirubiquity and power; however, sub-aerial processes are also significant;sometimes climatic regimes areimportant and also vegetationalprocesses on some coasts.The coastal zone can also be viewed ...
