Processes of Coastal Erosion

1. Attrition:

·                                 "Rock on rock"

·                                 Particles carried by the waves crash against each other and are broken up into smaller particles.

2. Corrasion (also known as abrasion):

·                                 "Rock on cliff"

·                                 Particles carried by the waves crash against the cliffs, eroding the cliffs.
