Question

explain the processes of erosion and deposition by sea waves

Answer 1

Answer:

Wave Erosion

Wave ErosionRunoff, streams, and rivers carry sediment to the oceans. The sediment in ocean water acts like sandpaper. Over time, they erode the shore. The bigger the waves are and the more sediment they carry, the more erosion they cause.

Answer 2

Erosion

Erosion is the geological process in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water.

Deposition by sea waves

Rivers carry sediments from the land to the sea. Waves continually move sand along the shore. Waves also move sand from the beaches on shore to bars of sand offshore as the seasons change. In the summer, waves have lower energy so they bring sand up onto the beach.
