quester [9]
Factors increasing erosion

Coastal erosion: the strength of the waves breaking along the coastline. Bigger, stronger waves have more erosive power.

Abrasion - rocks carried along by the river wear down the river bed and banks.

Attrition - rocks being carried by the river smash together and break into smaller, smoother and rounder particles.
