On the origin of coastal arcs
Abstract
The formation of coastal arcs - the largest landforms indicating the embayment of the coast is analyzed from the new point of view. Their location ~doesn't thoroughly depend on the structural pattern of the coast as it was supposed earlier and their size to a large extent depends on wave parameters.
