Coastal Geomorphology

Coastal geomorphology studies the shapes and features of coastlines, focusing on how they change over time due to natural processes like tides, waves, and erosion, as well as human activities. In the context of historical geomorphology, it examines how these coastal features have developed and transformed over centuries or millennia, informed by both geological history and environmental changes. This helps us understand past climate conditions, sea-level changes, and the impact of human interventions, providing insights into the future of coastal landscapes and their ecosystems.
