1. Waves moving down the beach
2. The process where smaller particles are bounced along the sea floor.
4. The movement of sediment along a beach due to wave action coming in at an angle.
5. The area where the land and the sea meet
6. The geological process where materials are added to a landform or land mass.
7. The process where small particles are carried within the water column.
11. The process where larger particles, such as pebbles, are rolled along the seabed.
12. The process by which waves are generated
13. Type of wave that erodes and removes material from the coast.
