The __________ people are the earliest known inhabitants of Africa's Mediterranean coast.
Coastal Deposition Landforms: Features and Formation. Material that is transported by the waves along a coastline is eventually deposited forming distinctive deposition features. There are four main deposition features that you need to learn the formation of. These are: 1. Beaches. 2. Spits. 3. Bars. 4. Tombolos. Beaches Beaches are the main feature of deposition found at the coast, these consist of all the material (sand, shingle etc.) that has built up between the high and low tide mark.
Stack â Further backward erosion into a headland resulting in a collapsed arch and the formation of a sea stack. An example of this is at Botany Bay in Kent (see Bay, for picture). Coastal Landforms Tombolo â Sea ward deposition of sediment linking the mainland to an island.We have no tombolo within the south east boundaries; however good examples include Holy Island, Northumberland, St Michaelâs Mount, Cornwall, and the Isle of Portland.oastal Landforms Beach â an area of coastal sediment accumulation at the land-sea boundary. The beach is the first line of defence for coastal protection. The beaches along our coastline are characterised by shingle, sand, shell and shale. Delta â Deposition of fluvial sediments into the coastal waters.
