From your geog1 text book…
What happened?
Weathering
Chemical: rain soaks in and dissolves minerals
Freeze- thaw: In winter water freezes in the cracks
making them larger
Explain what
the key words
and processes
mean!
Rain
Soaks into the
cracks. It makes clay
cliffs very slippery.
The clay can just
slide away.
Cliff Collapse
Why did it
Happen?
Explain how
these
processes
weaken cliffs
Wave Erosion
Waves attack the cliff
through Hydraulic
Action, Abrasion,
Solution and Attrition.
Why did it Happen?
A Useful Quote:
• “In dry summers, cracks can develop in the
clay cliffs. Then if you get a wet winter, the
water gets in through the cracks and
lubricates the clay” Engineer from Scarborough Council
