Күн бұрынLearn about the intricate #Geography processes which create Spit's, the thin strips of land coming out of coasts. First we will look at the mechanics of mother nature which are at play to create these phenomena and then we will look at the #Curonian #Spit as in Lithuania and Russia as a case study to see how these processes interact in the real world.

A Spit is defined by its failure to meet land again at the down drift end. This is frequently because of fluvial outflows, but may also be due to the power of ebbing tides that maintain a channel out to sea. If a spit eventually reaches the down drift shore it is termed a Bar. Nice work otherwise :)

educational but you should have just said "Neman" instead of "Matrosovka," "Skirvyte," and "Dreverna"

Please remove the jarring apostrophe. Sounds like English is not your first language, so you get a pass, but only if you remove it.

I wish I could speak his native language, whatever it is, as well as he speaks English 😉

Perhaps he thinks it's an eponym, with the original geologist who discovered this land form being one Mr. Spit.
