shouldn't currents, natural rising and falling of ocean levels, regional flooding, etc. change the shape of the coast pretty dramatically over the years |

Date: May 12th, 2025 12:31 AM Author: Rose office Growing up surfing saw a lot of cliff erosion in my short time. Didn't affect the actual coast lines, tide pools and beach shape much. Sand moves pretty fast in currents and swells. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5723929&forum_id=2:#48922985) |

same shit happened recently in gold coast, australia
beaches actually are never stable, they are constantly changing |

Date: May 12th, 2025 12:53 AM Author: Ocher Useless University Travel Guidebook go to any random beach town in the us and there are houses that have been there for a century or more (or new houses in the same place), 150 yards from the water. even without man-made reinforcements.
why doesn't the shore randomly eat up some of these houses or leave them 1,000 yards from the water over the course of a few years or decades. rivers can shift pretty dramatically for more obvious reasons, why not shores. |

Date: May 12th, 2025 3:22 AM Author: brilliant boistinker piazza they do
buildings literally on the beach do not naturally stay there for hundreds of years or more -- why do you think almost all our examples, even in Europe, are from the past 100-150 years? these days there's a ton of shit that gets done to preserve shorelines. the beach where I grew up for instance constantly had sand pumped in -- it's just called "beach renourishment" so nobody questions paying for it |

You can tell how rich a shore town is by how much erosion is permitted. Very little in the rich ones. Some in the poorer ones. Then you have the redneck ones on the Delaware Bay that are basically gone. |
