Detailed explanation-1: -The tombolo is a type of depositional landform in which an island is connected to the mainland by a small spit or a bar.
Detailed explanation-2: -The major deposition landforms are beaches, spits and bars. Deposition occurs when wave velocities slow, or when ocean currents slow due to encountering frictional forces such as the sea bed, other counter currents and vegetation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The features are: 1. Beaches 2. Spits and Bars 3. Marine Dunes and Dune Belts.
Detailed explanation-4: -Beaches, Spit and Bar are the Depositional Landforms formed by the sea waves. Beaches are depositional landforms created by the action of sea waves. Spit is a narrow coastal land formation that is tied to the coast at one end. A bar is an elongated deposit of sand, shingle or mud found almost parallel to the shore.
Detailed explanation-5: -Depositional coasts are characterized by abundant sediment supply that results in the net deposition of sediment and creation of new coastal landforms despite the energy of the waves and ocean currents.
