Coastal geomorphology is the scientific discipline that studies the formation of the transition zone between land and sea. This field investigates the various landforms created in coastal areas by dynamic processes such as tides, waves, currents, winds, and sea level changes. Coastal regions are sensitive ecosystems that are continuously altered by both natural processes and human impacts. Coastal zones are among the most dynamic areas on Earth’s surface. Continuous erosion and deposition proces

Tides are the regular rise and fall of sea level at specific time intervals. This natural phenomenon is caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun on Earth. Tides affect the lives of marine organisms living along coastlines, human activities related to the sea, and even energy production. Primary Cause of Tides Because the Moon is much closer to Earth than the Sun, it exerts a stronger pull on the ocean waters. On the side of Earth facing the Moon, sea level rises as water moves to
