The clear visuals show waves interacting with cliffs and rocks, demonstrating how coastlines are worn away at the base. This resource is ideal for earth science or geography lessons, suitable for display as a slide, inclusion in a worksheet for definition matching, or as a reference chart for student study on geomorphic processes.
