Across
- 3. being fair and just and ensuring an even share
- 4. occurs when weaker layers of rock dissolve in sea water or disintegrate because of salt crystallisation
- 5. seasonal variations in the size, character and direction of waves
- 10. rock wall built at a right angle to the beach to help prevent longshore drift
- 11. a wearing effect that occurs when waves hurl material such as sand or rocks againt the shore or when waves roll particles back and forth across the shore
- 13. a cross-section that also shows the land use of the area
- 14. lines drawn on a map joining places of equal barometric pressure
- 16. a narrow deposit of sand and other material that extends into a body of water
Down
- 1. the bending of waves caused by contact with the sea floor
- 2. the laying down of material carried by rivers, wind, ice, ocean currents or waves
- 6. a system formed by the interactions of the living organisms and physical elements of environments
- 7. formed when sand on a beach is stabilised by vegetation
- 8. a bare depression in a sand dune caused when loose sand is blown from the dune because vegetation has been removed
- 9. the movement of water back down the beach to the sea after a wave breaks
- 12. the tidal mouth of a river where the salt water of the tide meets the fresh water of the river current
- 15. the movement of water up the beach after a wave breaks
