A:

When Jews began arriving in Palestine in the first half of the twentieth century, they mainly came by boat, so it made sense to look around and settle in the coastal areas. Also, the coastal areas were more fertile and productive than area around Jerusalem, where the ancient land of Judah had been. Many of the arriving Jews had little interest in Jerusalem and created an alternative centre on the coast, in Tel Aviv.

How did weathering erosion and deposition form coastal sand plains?

Coastal sand plains are formed by a combination of weathering, erosion, and deposition processes. Weathering breaks down rocks into sand particles, which are then carried by erosion (wind and water) to coastal areas. Deposition occurs as these sand particles settle and accumulate in flat areas along the coast, gradually forming sand plains over time.
