surface2. 44% of world’s population live within 150km
of the coast; that’s just over 3 billion people3. 40% or world’s population live within 100km
of the coast; that’s 2.8 billion people4. Major coastal cities are Miami, Shanghai,
Lisbon, London, Amsterdam, Sao Paulo, Rio De Janeiro, New York, Los Angeles etc
5. Major industries at coasts are tourism, banking, farming, shipping, factories etc.

Our coasts is used for tourism. For example there’s a theme park (Adventure Island).
The theme park is in grid reference …
What are the main coastal processes shaping the coast?
• Weathering – The breaking up of rocks into smaller pieces.
• Mass movement – The sudden movement of material usually downhill.
• Erosion – The wearing away of rocks that have been weathered.
• Transportation - The movement of material from one place to another.
• Deposition – The laying down of material.
