2014年1月1日 · Fault coasts are generally steep-to coasts possessing a simple linear or rectilinear plan outline. Examples include the northeastern side of San Clemente Island, California; Wellington and Thames, New Zealand; Murmansk, eastern Kamchatka, and southern Crimea, USSR; and the Red Sea coast.

2021年9月10日 · Coastlines are shaped by an ongoing series of processes involving daily wind and wave action, tides, occasional storms and superstorms, earthquakes, and massive tsunamis. Coastlines reflect process of their origin including erosion of bedrock features, and are influenced by regional geology, geography, and climate.

断层海岸（fault coast）指海岸线总方向与断层线走向相一致的海岸。 沿断层面抬升的地块，多呈悬崖峭壁；下滑的地块，则为海洋深渊，在坚硬的结晶岩地区，断层岸的岸线多平直，岸壁陡峭。

2021年2月15日 · Volcanic Coasts: Coastlines associated with recent or active volcanoes (mostly basaltic or andesitic volcanoes). Examples: Hawaii, Aleutian Islands, Japan, Philippines, Indonesia (Figure 12.7). Fault/tectonic Coasts: Coastlines associated with major active fault systems along continental margins

Faulted coasts are chiefly associated with active continental margins where tectonic plates are colliding. They often correspond to bold coasts, characterized by continuously steep and straight scarps.

FAULT COASTS. The final type of coastline is a fault coast. Faulting of the coastal margin of a continent can leave the shoreline resting against a fault scarp. A classic example occurs on the northern coast of Chile, where the Andes Mountains rise from the Peru–Chile trench.

2022年9月27日 · Map showing Quaternary faults in the western U.S. and Pacific Ocean. Note that most faults that can affect residents are either onshore or just offshore. The various colors and line types indicate different ages of the most recent earthquakes on the fault and how well the location of the fault is constrained.

2018年3月1日 · The coastlines of Norway and Sweden are examples of compound coastlines. Fault Coastlines. Such coastlines are unusual features and result from the submergence of a downthrown block along a fault, such that the uplifted block has its steep side (or the faultline) standing against the sea forming a fault coastline.

Fault Coastlines: Such coastlines are unusual features and result from the submergence of a downthrown block along a fault, such that the uplifted block has its steep side (or the fault line) standing against the sea forming a fault coastline.
