Description: Explaining the basics of coastal erosion with a homemade wave generator! Want more? I did a follow-up live stream to answer questions and show off the wave generator here: youtu.be/9i_Q2MhKSlw We humans are fascinated with the coast. There’s something inherently interesting about seeing the place where two things meet; where the vast expanse of ocean touches the land on which we live. It might not seem like it, but there’s an endless battle going on between land and sea along every coastline in the world (and just a hint: the sea is almost always winning).
