As you move inland from the coast, land elevation tends to increase. This is because coastal areas are often low-lying due to deposition of sediment from rivers and the sea, while inland areas are usually further away from these sources and are less affected by erosion and sedimentation. Therefore, land elevation generally rises as you move away from the coast.
