Show transcript
Natural processes that happen at the coast help to shape coastlines. There are four types of erosion: abrasion, hydraulic action, attrition and solution. There are four types of transportation: traction, solution, suspension and saltation. The process of deposition occurs when waves have lost their energy and can no longer carry their load.
