Resource summary

Flowchart nodes

  • Coastline with alternating hard and soft rocks consists of a series of headlands and bays due to coastal erosion
  • Bays formed in soft rocks as they are worn away more rapidly/easily by the erosional processes such as hydraulic action and abrasion
  • Hard rocks form headlands as they are more resistant to erosion.
