Difference between Coastal erosion and Scree

Coastal erosion vs. Scree

Coastal erosion is the wearing away of material from a coastal profile including the removal of beach, sand dunes, or sediment by wave action, tidal currents, wave currents, drainage or high winds (see also beach evolution). Scree is a collection of broken rock fragments at the base of crags, mountain cliffs, volcanoes or valley shoulders that has accumulated through periodic rockfall from adjacent cliff faces.

Similarities between Coastal erosion and Scree

Coastal erosion and Scree have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cliff, Debris, Erosion, Rock (geology).

Cliff

In geography and geology, a cliff is a vertical, or nearly vertical, rock exposure.

Debris

Debris or débris is rubble, wreckage, ruins, litter and discarded garbage/refuse/trash, scattered remains of something destroyed, discarded, or as in geology, large rock fragments left by a melting glacier etc.

Erosion

In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes (such as water flow or wind) that remove soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transport it to another location (not to be confused with weathering which involves no movement).
