ANSWER:
By sea waves:
Ocean waves have a tremendous amount of energy and so they may do a great deal of erosion. Some landforms created by erosion are platforms, arches, and sea stacks. Transported sand will eventually be deposited on beaches, spits, or barrier islands.
By glacier:
As the glaciers expand, due to their accumulating weight of snow and ice they crush and abrade and scour surfaces such as rocks and bedrock. The resulting erosional landforms include striations, cirques, glacial horns, arêtes, trim lines, U-shaped valleys, roches moutonnées, overdeepenings and hanging valleys.
By wind:
Sand Dune Landforms
Sand dunes (both active and stabilized by vegetation) can be found along beaches, and in arid or semi-arid regions. Dunes are mounds of loose sand created by wind and are the most well known aeolian features. There are a varitety of types of dunes, depending on their shape.
Hope it helps!!!
