What is it called when the water rolls back down the beach and into the sea?
When water rolls back down the beach and into the sea, it is called "backwash." This occurs after waves break on the shore, depositing sand and water before the water recedes. The backwash is an essential part of the coastal erosion and sediment transport processes.

How can a sea wall prevent beach erosion?
A sea wall acts as a physical barrier that absorbs or deflects the energy of waves, reducing their impact on the beach. This helps to prevent erosion by protecting the shoreline from the force of the waves and stabilizing the beach area behind the wall. However, sea walls can also have negative impacts on beach ecosystems and natural coastal processes.
How can tides pull you out to sea?
An ebbing tide is when sea water is moving away from the shore after a high tide. Large waves crashing and flowing up the beach flows back into the sea. This backwards flow is often strong enough to sweep swimmers out to sea. An off-shore wind is capable of blowing children's inflatables and beach balls out to sea.

What is the best type of sea defence?
I think the best sea defence is the Sea Wall because it helps to block any powerful waves from coming in. It's definitely NOT Beach Nourishment because that has soft rock and the powerful waves will cause it crumble and the soft rock wears away easily. That's what I think anyway.😂Don't know if it's right. Best regards, Serafina Clearwater😜😜😜
What landscape feature is made when the sea deposits sand and where the waves meet the shore?
A beach is created when the sea deposits sand where the waves meet the shore. This sandy area offers a transition zone between the ocean and the land, supporting unique ecosystems and providing recreational opportunities.

How do wave change a beach?
Waves transfer energy to the beach and depending on tidal conditions can pile sand up or sweep it out to sea, during a storm the quickly rising or falling tide and waves have much more power.
