1. Eroded landforms
Rock coast in the waves, tidal current erosion under the formation of various forms. There are sea cave, sea cliff, sea erosion platform, sea erosion column. This type of landforms due to the composition of the coastal material is different from the speed of erosion and the degree of development of landforms are also different.
2. Stacked landform
Coastal sediments in the wave, under the action of water, the occurrence of lateral or longitudinal movement, when the sediment movement blocked or wave current power weakened, the accumulation occurs, the formation of various marine landforms. According to the relationship between accumulation body and coast and its cause, it can be divided into adjoining landform, free landform, closed landform, surrounding landform and landform. According to the composition of coastal material and its morphology, can be divided into sandy gravel coast, muddy coast, delta coast, biological coast and other landforms.
