Rock surface millimetre-scale roughness and weathering of supratidal Mallorcan carbonate coasts (Balearic Islands)
are attributed to rock properties, weathering agents and bioerosion. In the splash zone, roughness is related to sparsely distributed pattern of bioerosion, salt weathering and wave attack. In the spray zone, smooth surfaces seem to be the response

The supratidal deposits and effects of coral dredging on Mud Island, Moreton Bay, southeast Queensland
galets ont limité le flux de la marée dans la zone de mangroves, tuant ces dernières près des embouchures de ruisseaux à cause de la saturation d'eau. La surface des ruisseaux et des marécages a augmenté de 52% de 1958 à 1991.

development is initiated by salt weathering. In the intertidal zone, cavity shapes and sizes are primarily controlled by wetting/drying cycle. In the supratidal spray zone, honeycomb weathering results from a dynamic balance between the corrosive action

A shore platform on the western coast of Galicia in northwestern Spain has been inherited from interglacial stages when sea level was similar to today. The wide, gently sloping intertidal platform is backed in places by supratidal rock ledges
, and in other places by a steeper and narrower supratidal ramp. The morphological and sedimentary evidence suggests that the supratidal ramp and ledges were also formed during the last interglacial stage, whereas the wider intertidal platform is probably

La célestite serait un indicateur paléogéographique remarquable (formation en milieu très littoral, supratidal même) et un indicateur de climat aride ou semi-aride.

This paper describes shore platforms around Shag Point on the eastern coast of South Island, New Zealand. The interesting feature of these platforms is that within a very limited distance their elevation changes from supratidal to low tide level

régional des fluctuations du niveau marin au cours du Quaternaire. Les dépôts marins associés à ces terrasses traduisent un milieu sédimentaire de type intertidal à supratidal. Une succession d'événements pédo-sédimentaires contemporains du dernier cycle

Beach ridges - definitions and significance

Numerous AA. utilized the term beach ridge for active and relict, usually wave-built supratidal and /or intertidal forms. The term was applied also to submerged, landward-shifting, eventually stranded bars. A consistent redefinition of the term

periods by a continuous supratidal barrier. The contemporary morphodynamics and sedimentary environments of each estuary type are discussed.
