Best Answer

To stop the effects of longshore drift whereby beach sediment of sand and shingle are moved along the coastline. The reason for stopping this is because sand acts as a great form of natural defense against erosion of Coastlines.

Are estuaries associated with submergent or emergent coasts?

Estuaries are present along both coastlines, but the ones along submergent coastlines are much larger in size. Estuaries represent the flooded, lower portions of stream and river valleys. Since sea level has been rising steadily, large estuaries and estuarine systems have developed along tectonically stable continental margins with wide continental shelves and coastal plains; the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States are good examples. Along wide coastal plains, each incremental rise in sea level inundates much larger areas than along tectonically rising coasts where elevations and relief are higher and stream valleys are more likely to be steep-sided and narrow.
