Physical Processes Coasts
Across
- 1. the breakdown and movement of sediment
- 3. wave with a stronger backwash creating erosion
- 6. large pieces of ground slipping downward due to gravity
- 7. when the water loses its energy and lets go of its load
- 9. rocks breaking the surface at the base of the cliff
- 11. sediment dissolved in water
- 14. pebbles bouncing along the river or sea bed
- 18. water forced into a crack makes it expand
- 19. breaking down of sediment where it is
- 20. downwards movement of rocks, soil and debris
Down
- 2. rocks falling, bouncing and rolling down a slope
- 4. large movement of soil and rock down a slope
- 5. wave with a stronger swash creating deposition
- 8. eroded material being carried
- 10. sediment carried along in the water
- 12. seawater moving back to the sea
- 13. rocks bash together becoming smoother and smaller
- 15. mud moving fast down a slope
- 16. seawater moving up the beach
- 17. boulders rolling along the river or sea bed
