What is the coast as an open system?Show answer
Treating the coast as an open system with inputs, stores, transfers and outputs is the foundation Eduqas builds the whole landscape option on. Energy and sediment enter, are stored in landforms, are transferred along the coast, and leave the cell. England and Wales are divided into eleven major sediment cells for management, each subdivided into sub-cells, so reasoning at the scale of the cell is essential: what is defended in one place affects another downdrift.
