Coastlines Under Threat By Lara And Steph
Wave Cut Platform This is a wave cut platform. It has been formed by hydraulic action of the waves. The waves create a bigger force of water into the cracks of the rock face making them wider and eventually the rock breaks away. This is a diagram of a wave cut platform and it’s processes.
Caves Caves are the result of the hydraulic action that caused the faults in the rock to become wider.  The acids in the sea has reacted with the rock. This is called Corrasion. It has made undercutting in the rock.
Arches   These arches have been created, again, by the hydraulic action in the lines of weakness. They were originally caves which over thousands of years have further eroded to form an arch.
Stacks   and Stumps   The Isle of Wight Needles has an example of stacks. These are produced by the arches collapsing due to gravity.  Headland Here is another example of stacks and stumps in the sea. Due to the process of gravity. Stump
