YEAR 9 GEOGRAPHY
Complete all the activities in the booklet. You can use the information found on the websites listed on the final page of the booklet or through using the power points shared via the school network. You may find that some of the activities in the booklet have been taught in your geography lessons, in this case you will be completing the questions as revision. When we return to school you will be assessed on the coasts unit of work. When you have completed all the activities in the booklet you will then need to complete knowledge recall quizzes on the Seneca website on the topics we have studied in geography this year.

The coast is shaped by weathering, mass movement, erosion, transportation and deposition.
There are three groups of weathering. These are listed below, explain each type of weathering. Explain each type of weathering Physical: ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Chemical: _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Biological: ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ What type of weathering is this?
Which type of physical weathering would you find in hot, dry climates?
Explain the processes using the following words: heating cooling expansion contraction
When a wave crashes down on a beach or smashes against a cliff, it carries out the processes of coastal erosion. In the boxes provided, draw labelled diagrams to show how the processes of hydraulic power, abrasion and attrition erode rock.

Coastal Transportation
Four main types of sediment transportation can be identified.
Explain the formation of a stack. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Which of the following statements are true? Shade two ovals only
a. Depositional landforms occur where swash is strong.
b. A spit is an erosional landform.
c. A coastal bar forms when longshore drift deposits sediment across the entrance to a
bay.
d. A headland is a depositional landform.
e. A wave cut platform is a depositional landform

Next to each image below, name the coastal feature and say whether it is formed by erosion or deposition.

Complete the table of A NAMED EXAMPLE OF A SECTION OF
COASTLINE IN THE UK My example:
___________________________________________
Identify the location of your chosen
stretch of coastline on the map. Sketch map of the geology of your chosen stretch of coastline.
Describe the erosional processes at play along this section of
coastline. An example of one erosional landform found on this section of coastline. Include a diagram or sketch of the feature and its name if it has one. Stretch: say how the feature is likely to change in the future.
Describe the depositional processes at play along this section
of coastline. An example of one depositional landform found on this section of
coastline. Include a diagram or sketch of the feature and its name if it
has one. Stretch: say how the feature is likely to change in
the future.

Coastal Management Define hard engineering _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Define soft engineering _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Using the annual sea wall maintenance cost data provided, identify the mode, median, mean and range.
Mode: the most common Median: the middle value (when values are in order of size) Mean: the average Range: the difference between the greatest and smallest values

What is causing rising sea level? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Describe 4 possible impacts of sea level rise in East Anglia. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Coastal areas provide a unique environment and habitat. There is a need for conservation and this leads to conflict with other land uses.
