Beach erosion


Close-up view of scarp on beach. Dark organic layers on lower left are truncated by homogeneous sand on the right. Horizontal layers covered both of these units. Powerful waves eroded everything to this small vertical cliff. Note centimeter and inch scale in the lower left. Baldwin County, Alabama. I believe the photographer was A.K. Rindsberg.
