What caused the ocean to remove sediment from land?

A delta will be formed close to land, and an abyssal plain far from land. The abyssal plain is the true floor of the ocean, beyond the Continental Slope & Rise, not a river form, although it does collect some sediment from rivers.

sediment and other minerials that form fossiles build up in the ocean much faster than on land, so there ar many more fossiles in he ocean than on land

Sea and land breezes are caused by the difference in the rates of heating between the land and the ocean. The bigger the difference in temperature creates stronger winds.

A basin is a large or small depression in the surface of land. or the ocean. A basin can be caused by plate tectonics or erosion.

It is called a delta

When there is an unequal cooling and heating of the ocean surfaces and the adjacent land, this causes what we know as land breezes. When air is blown from the ocean to the land beause of this difference in temperature, this is called a sea breeze.

The hydrosphere is affected by the erosion of land, water debris, sediment re-deposition (materials settling on the bottom of rivers, lakes, ocean, etc.), and flooding can create oxbow lakes/billabongs which are rivers or streams that have been caused by flooding - these can occur in many places.

Ask the smarty who caused Global Warming...

they go out to a ocean or lake depositing sediment along the way. (hope this is what you meant)

mid - ocean ridges, they're caused by divergent boundaries Rifts are also on land, such as the Great Rift Valley in Africa mid - ocean ridges, they're caused by divergent boundaries Rifts are also on land, such as the Great Rift Valley in Africa mid - ocean ridges, they're caused by divergent boundaries Rifts are also on land, such as the Great Rift Valley in Africa

A delta is a land formation caused by the flow of silt at the mouth of a river. Over time, the sediment forms a mound or a series of mounds that have considerable size.

Runoff is water flowing over land that carries particles of sediment.

Hurricanes develop over the ocean not land so their strength could possibly kill some ocean animals or displace their habitat. Once on land, the flooding caused by hurricanes could harm land animals.

Over time, the Amazon has changed to flow into the Atlantic. Shifting sediment has caused an affect called "falling land" by people who come to the region.

the land increases

The transport of sediment depends on its grain size and the original location where it was produced. Terrigenous sediment can be transported to the deep sea via rivers or by wind. Material transported by rivers most commonly ends up deposited on thecontinental margin, the shallow portions of the ocean that are within several hundred kilometers of land. When continental margin deposits accumulate fast and get overly steep, or when an earthquake or storm causes the…

Tsunami are waves caused by sudden movement of the ocean due to earthquakes, landslides on the sea floor, land slumping into the ocean, large volcanic eruptions or meteorite impact in the ocean.

when the glaciers move across the land they pick up sediment that is called pulcking. as the glaciers move the sediment scrapes the land causing erosion

When a glacier melts it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land, creating various landforms.

The highest waves in the ocean are usually caused by a storm or earthquake. An earthquake at sea can cause mass destruction if the waves crash into land.

An island can be formed from volcanism, from sediment deposition, as a result of coral growth, from the breaking apart of continents or from a rise or fall in sea levels. They have occasionaly been formed by land-fill and when parts of a peninsula are drowned, leaving the remainder disconnected from the larger body of land. When lava flows into the ocean it forms land which eventually forms an island. Think of volcanic islands as…

Land bridge is a theory wherein it was believed that the Philippines was once a part of the Asian continent. But when the ice started to melt it caused the waters to rise and it formed into an ocean that covered the land bridges.

When a river deposits sediment on land, it can cause an alluvial fan. Although more common in arid places, they can also form in humid ones.

It breaks down sediment rock

The sediment is washed into the sea by runoff from the land, especially by rivers and streams. Most of this sediment does not travel very far offshore before settling.

Is one referring to a delta caused by water and sediment flow at the end of a landmass? The word delta come from the Greek. The letter of which is depicted as a small triangle.

Regular ocean waves are caused by wind and are surface disturbances of the water. Tidal waves are caused by earthquakes and involve all the water from the surface to the bottom of the ocean. Tidals waves become tremendously larger when they reach the shore, as the upward slope of the land focuses the wave.

Terrigenous sediment is derived from land and usually deposited on the continental shelf, continental rise, and abyssal plain

A Fjord is cut by flowing ice and is usually partially flooded by the ocean. A canyon is cut by flowing water (or water born sediment) and unless it is an undersea canyon, is usually located on land.

By dropping the sediment they carry.

Sediment settles on the bottom of the lake or sea ultimately because it is heavier than water. Sediment begins as dirt or fragments of rock on land. When precipitation (rain) or flooding occurs these fragments are carried along with the water to the nearest stream, river, or other water reserve. The sediment that is carried into a lake or pond then sinks to the bottom of the body of water. The sediment that finds its…

The two kind of land forms created by deposit of sediment are: alluvial fan and delta.

It takes small amounts of sediment as it rushes by, causing the land to gradually erode

According to the news, almost any peice of land that touches the Pacific Ocean.

The local rise and fall of bodies of water and land is caused by the moon. It controls the tides. Literally trying to pull the oceans water its way.

The shore is where the ocean meets the land.

An aggradation is an increase in land elevation due to the deposition of sediment.

Any kind of weathering or rocks

Alluvial fan

When a glacier melts, it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land, creating various landforms.

The ocean is older than land because it formed the land.

Nobody killed JFK Jr. He died in a plane crash due to bad weather which caused his plane to land in the Atlantic Ocean.

The ocean meets the land at the shore.

They live in the ocean but breed on land.

Antarctica is a land mass surrounded by an ocean.

No, Sediments deposited where a river flows into an ocean or lake builds up a land form called a delta. An alluvial fan is a wide, sloping deposit of sediment formed where a stream leaves a mountain range.

Alluvial Fan

An alluvion is the increase in the area of land due to the deposition of sediment from a river.

levees are formed

The land at the bottom of the sea or ocean can be the sea floor or ocean floor.
