Hi, I have this test on tuesday next week and I would really like some help on the essay questions that say:

What case studies have you looked at? I did this paper in January and i used the case studies of the holderness coast in Eastern England; spurn head is the best depositional feature that i know of along with Chesil Beach.
The factors affecting coastal deposition include;
Wave Energy, Shape, Size, Fetch
Supply of Sediment
Direction of dominant and prevailing winds
Rock Type
Human Factors, defences

You can also look in an answer at ways that these land forms are negatively affected such as beach erosion.

Hope this helps a little? Sorry if it doesn't
