A marine terrace forms when a wave-cut platform is uplifted due to geological processes, creating a flat, raised landform along a coastline. The terrace is typically located above the current sea level and provides evidence of past sea levels and coastal uplift events. Erosion and weathering can further shape the terrace over time.
Alluvial Terraces are also known as built terrace; drift terrace; fill terrace; stream-built terrace; wave-built platform; wave-built terrace.
The cemented shells of marine organisms form limestone, which is a type of sedimentary rock. Limestone is predominantly composed of the mineral calcite and can contain fossilized remains of shells and other marine organisms.
Terrace farming is a method of farming on sloped terrain by building terraces or steps along the hillside to create flat surfaces for planting crops. In the Himalayas, terrace farming is commonly practiced in the mid-hills range, which includes areas like the Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, and parts of Nepal and Bhutan.
Aeolian sandstones are formed by wind deposition in arid environments, typically showing cross-bedding and poor sorting. Marine sandstones form in coastal or marine environments, showing ripple marks, fossils, and better sorting. Lacustrine sandstones form in freshwater lake environments, often displaying mudcracks and plant fossils.
Oolitic limestone is most likely to form in high-energy marine environments, such as shallow tropical seas with strong currents where the rapid agitation of water helps form small ooids (rounded sediment grains). These ooids accumulate and cement together to form oolitic limestone.

Elevated marine terrace would indicate that the land had been uplifted, while a tombolo would suggest that sea level had fallen. An estuary is a semi-enclosed coastal body of water where rivers meet the sea, and a sea stack is a tall, vertical column of rock in the sea.
