Desert landforms – importance of water?
Erosion and deposition.
Earth movements?
Key Idea 1: Different forces shaping landforms.
sandstorm
Depositional landform.
Changing processes as (desert) climate changes.
Landform modification occurs
Landforms of glacial erosion – upland
Impressive features if rocks resistant
Pre-existing landforms?
Weathering?
Transport?
Erosion?
Features of a Glacial lowland – deposition.
See pre and post glacial structures and altered landforms!
Coastal erosion
Time: headland to cave to arch to stack.
Longshore drift
Depositional feature – a spit
Importance of wind and waves
Glaciation meets coasts
Glaciers erode below base level (out to sea)
Sea level rises after ice melts
Post glacial uplift
Isostatic recovery
