Starter: What do these landforms features have in common?

Landforms of Emergence – the impact of a relative FALL in sea level

Abandoned cliffs

Raised Beaches

Marine Terraces How are they formed?

Learning objectives n To describe and explain the influence of sea level fall and geomorphic processes in shaping landforms, including raised beaches, marine terraces and abandoned cliffs.

Formation of emergent features What will happen if sea levels falls?

Emergent coastal landforms caused by sea level falls 1) Describe and explain the formation of: a) Raised beaches/Marine terraces. b) Abandoned cliffs (relict cliffs)

Once formed, will these features change or stay the same? Which processes could take place?

Learning objectives n To understand the modification of these landforms by processes associated with present and future climate and sea level changes.

Cryoturbation

Emergent coastal landforms caused by sea level falls 1) Describe and explain the formation of: a) Raised beaches/Marine terraces. b) Abandoned cliffs (relict cliffs) Modifications of these landforms 2) Explain how will these landforms be modified by physical processes now and in the future? You must include all the associated weathering processes and mass movement.
