Lapping Waves

Enjoy the aquatic ambiance of the sea's waves finally settling against the seashore after a journey that can span several thousand miles of endless motion along an endless blue ocean. Let go of your land-loving life and enter the serene sanctity of the powerfully calming sea. Waves erode coastline as they break on shore; the larger the wave the more sediment it moves. Coasts are a dynamic environment with constant change. The Earth's natural processes, particularly sea level rise, waves and various weather phenomena, have resulted in the reshaping of coasts. Sediment deposited by rivers is the major influence on the amount of sediment located on a coastline.
