This type of beach is most likely formed by the process of erosion, where the steep cliffs are gradually eroded by natural forces such as waves, wind, and changing sea levels. Over time, the eroded material is deposited along the shoreline, creating a beach that is backed by the remaining steep cliffs. The steep cliffs can provide a scenic backdrop for the beach but may also be subject to ongoing erosion processes.
Why are some cliffs eroded faster than others?
Cliffs can erode faster depending on factors such as the type of rock they are composed of, the presence of vegetation to stabilize the soil, the frequency of extreme weather events, and human activities that may accelerate erosion processes like mining or construction. These factors can contribute to differences in erosion rates among cliffs.
