Geography
Across
- 1. A narrow piece of land that extrudes from a coastline into the sea
- 3. Sea dissolves certain rocks
- 4. Rock containing iron rusts
- 5. Extremely slow movement of individual soil particles downhill
- 6. The addition of matter or energy
- 9. The movement of waves up the beach
- 10. Sheer power of the waves, type of erosion
- 15. Sudden collapse of rock fragments
- 16. When sediment is permanently lost to the system
- 18. When matter or energy leaves the system
- 19. Rain, snow, hail, sleet
- 20. A very little difference between high and low tide
- 22. When no matter or energy leaves the system
Down
- 2. Rubbing of sediment, type of erosion
- 3. The balance between sediment input and output
- 7. Material is shifted along the coast at an oblique angle
- 8. How the Earth's rotation affects the direction the wind travels
- 9. The slide surface is curved rather than flat
- 11. Large scale movement of water in the oceans
- 12. The movement of water up to the surface of the ocean
- 13. A low wall or sturdy barrier built out into the sea from a beach to check erosion and drifting.
- 14. A big difference between high and low tide
- 17. Sun and moon is perpendicular to the Earth
- 21. The distance of the wave before it collapses
- 23. Sun and moon align on the same side of the Earth
