  1. coasts are where sea land and the atmosphere meet. because its unique combination its a dynamic environment where changes occur frequently and at regular intervals. caosts produce spectacular land scapes, land forms and offers a high varity of oppertunities for human activities.

  2. Coasts are a result of the combination of atmosphere, land and sea come together (right now, over me. bum bum ba da da da). Because of the combination in which they are created, they have a variety of factors in their ever-changing environment and as such, can have a large change in composition from anywhere between a few seconds to millions of years.

  3. Coasts are formed were the sea, land and atmosphere meet,Coasts can vary from the different factors affecting it. Coasts are always eroding slowly due to strong winds and water, Coasts provide awesome looking land scapes and offer a variety of oppertunities for human activities

  5. Coasts are formed where land, sea and atmosphere meet. Waves play a major role in breaking down and building up coasts. But other things like tides, currents, and sediment type, also help form coastlines around the world. One of the most famous coastlines in Australia is situated along The Great Ocean Road.

  6. coasts occur where the sea, land and atmosphere meet. waves, tides and currents play a major part in erosion. Waves erode coastline as they break on shore releasing their energy; the larger the wave the more energy it releases and the more sediment it moves.

  7. caosts are where the sea, the land and the atomosphere interact. on coastlines all four spheres are located: the hydrosphere; the water, the atmosphere; the air, the lithosphere; the sand and non living things and the biosphere though the plants and animals that thrive on the coast. on the coast a large amount of erosion is caused by the dynamic environment, the constant waves crash onto the shore slowly taking away sediment which setlles in other areas. this erodes the coastline.
