Case 1: Water Issues in the Arid American Southwest
Case 2: Soil Salinization in Arid and Semi-Arid Lands

Consider the following statements:



Climate change is not only a scientific issue but also a political issue.
There is a relationship between human activity and physical geography

Create a comparison of the effects on Coastline Formations and Arid Landscapes. Response in at
least 70 per box.

Address for both:

Coastline Formations

Arid Landscapes

What are the surficial
processes that affect this
landscape?

The surfical processe acting on the
formation of coastlines include
erosion, deposition, and
transportation. Destructive waves
are responble for the wearing of
the coastal landmass. The erosion
takes place by abrasion, corrosion,
and attrition. When these materials
have been destroyed, the
constructive waves can deposit
them along the coast forming
features like beaches, tombolos,
and spits. Sand is highly
transported by the longshore drift.
Water carry away suspended
materials from the beach affecting
its shape.

This regions have little or no
vegetation cover making
erosion to be the dominant
process. There is mass
wasting, and rock falls. The
action o...
