Coasts
Tombolo- a finer of said that coiiects ai islaid to a piece of laid.
Wave cut platorm- the waves erode the clifs back aid leaves a layer of rock oi the foor ii froit.
Strata- difereit layers of rock withii ai area aid how they relate to each other.
Deformatoo- the denree to which the rock uiits have beei deformiin (tlted or moved) by tectoiic
hazards.
Faultog- the preseice of major fractures that have moved rocks from their oriniial positoi.
The south east aid east of the uk neierally have harder rock (volcaiic+ metamorphic) thai the
south (limestoie aid chalk).
