Longshore current move parallel to the shore as longshore drift under the prevailing wind in zig-zag motion.
It is an ocean current that is cause by swell sweeping into the shoreline at an angle and pushing water down the length of beach in a uniform direction.
It is a geological also process that consist of the transportation of sediments such as silt,clay,sand and shingle.
Hope it helps!
Erosion needs Earths rock
Erosion is wearing down and carrying away rocks by wind and moving water, happens faster with steep hillsides and heavy rain

Explanation:
The Great Migration was the relocation of more than 6 million African Americans from the rural South to the cities of the North, Midwest and West from about 1916 to 1970. Driven from their homes by unsatisfactory economic opportunities and harsh segregationist laws, many blacks headed north, where they took advantage of the need for industrial workers that arose during the First World War. During the Great Migration, African Americans began to build a new place for themselves in public life, actively confronting racial prejudice as well as economic, political and social challenges to create a black urban culture that would exert enormous influence in the decades to come.
I’m not sure exactly what you’re looking for, but the US spent $15m dollars and gained 54% of Mexico’s pre-1836 territory. There’s a nice article on Wikipedia called ‘Mexican Cession’ that seems helpful. Hope this is helpful :)
Explanation:
Effects of Wind
on forecasted temperatures
At night, the earth's surface cools by radiating heat off to space. The strongest cooling takes place right near the surface while temperatures at roughly 3000 feet are actually warmer than those at the surface. On a windy night, some of the warmer air aloft is mixed down towards the surface. This occurs because the winds are faster aloft than at the surface.
To visualize this, place one hand over the other about six inches apart. The bottom hand represents the air near the surface and the top hand represents the warmer wind higher up. Move the bottom hand slowly and the upper hand faster (to indicate the faster winds aloft). The faster air above and slower air below causes the air to overturn or spin (as in the picture below). This overturning motion is how warmer air from above is transported downward on windy nights.
