Brazilian Rocky Shores: Geomorphology and Physical Environment
摘要
Rocky shores are formations of crystalline rocks that are close to the sea and are susceptible to weather, variations in the average sea level, sea currents, rains, and winds and are represented under different formations such as boulders, cliffs, and rocky shores with different degrees of slopes and extensions and may have terraces of abrasion by waves and fallen rocks. Erosion by wave action, wind, and rain are the main factors; however, temperature also influences the formation and composition of rocks.
