Matching
Match the items with the correct descriptions.
Premises:
building structures along the coastline to prevent movement of sand
a deposit of sediment resulting from a flood current passing through an inlet
like the Atlantic coast of the United States, an area of sea level rise relative to the land
the amount of time it takes for two wave crests to pass the same point
like the Pacific coast of the United States, an area of land uplift relative to sea level
the sawing and grinding action of water armed with rock fragments
pumping sand onto the beach from some other area, temporarily replenishing the sediment supply
the distance from one wave crest to the next
Responses:
abrasion
wave period
wavelength
hard stabilization
beach nourishment
submergent
emergent
tidal delta
