Sea level changes impact coastlines from "summary" of Principles of Geology, Volume 1 by Charles Lyell,Sir Charles Lyell

Sea level changes have a profound impact on the coastlines of the world. This is a result of the continual shifting of sea levels, which can be influenced by a variety of factors such as climate change, tectonic activities, and human interventions. As sea levels rise or fall, coastlines are either inundated with water or exposed to the elements, leading to significant changes in their physical characteristics. When sea levels rise, coastal areas are at risk of being submerged underwater. This can lead to erosion of the shoreline, loss of land, and displacement of communities living in these areas. The rising sea levels can also increase the frequency and intensity of coastal flooding, causing damage to infrastructure and disrupting ecosystems. In addition, the intrusion of saltwater into freshwater systems can have detrimental effects on agricultu...
