1. Describe how waves coming into shore create longshore current that moves

sediment along the coast.

2. Gravity is so important in creating the ocean tides. The mass of an object is

directly proportional to the effect of gravity (greater the mass, the greater the

gravitational force). So, why is the moon, having MUCH less mass than the sun,

more important in its influence on Earth’s tides?

3. How might building a dam on a river that flows into the ocean affect beaches

along that part of the coast?

4. How do sea STACKS form from a headland along the coast?

5. Describe the motion of the water directly below the surface as a wave passes

along the ocean surface in deep water.

6. Do streams flowing through arid regions exhibit increasing or decreasing

discharge? Why?

7, How does an alluvial fan form?

8. How does desert pavement form?

9. Barchans and parabolic dunes have similar crescent shapes. How are they

different?

10. Why is wind an effective agent of erosion in dry regions, but not in moist

climates?
