How are lagoons formed??
Answers
Explanation:
The formation of lagoons depends on the barrier bars and sediment sources, waves, tides, and surf or storms and catastrophic events like storms, tsunamis, and hurricanes. When sand is moved by the long coastal shore and gets deposited at the entrance of the bay, the accumulated deposits form a sandbar.
Explanation:
Lagoons are very common coastal features found globally. The word “Lagoon” is derived from the Italian laguna that refers to the Lagoon of Venice, the waters around Venice. These are the shallow bodies of water separated from a larger body of water like ocean by barrier islands, sandbars, coral reefs, or other natural barriers. Lagoons are also called bays, estuaries, sounds, or even lakes. However, lagoons can form on gravel coastlines and mixed sand. There are also artificial human-made lagoons created for the treatment of wastewater, and these include anaerobic lagoons and aerated lagoons.
