How Coastal Spits are formed - labelled diagram and explanation

Detailed explanation of how sediment is transported along the coast by the process of long shore drift and then deposited on the sheltered side of a headland to form a coastal spit. I also discuss and explain the prevailing wind, the formation of the salt marsh and the role that the river estuary plays in the formation of this coastal feature. The explanation is ideal for class notes and also can easily be replicated as revision for examinations.

Great video! This explains it really well. But how is the river involved in the formation of a spit?

the spit should form at the tip of the headland, not at the other side of the headland.

sending on behalf of 2X of ACS International. They made me do it. I am sorry.

What stops a spit from turning into a bar? I thought offshore bars can be formed at a mouth of a river or a bay.
