Caves, blowhole, geo sequence Flashcards
1
Q
Caves, blowhole, geo sequence step 1
A
Marine erosion processes create sea caves along a line of weakness
2
Q
Caves, blowhole, geo sequence step 2
A
Waves force air and water into the cave, creating a shaft upwards to the surface and forming a blowhole where water gushes out in certain tide and wave conditions

Q
Caves, blowhole, geo sequence step 3
A
Continued erosion cause the extended cave root to collapse leaving a long narrow inlet - (A geo). Geos can form along a line of weakness where erosion processes have a greater impact.
