Weight Loss. If you want to lose weight, you will need to adjust your caloric intake accordingly. One pound of body weight is equal to 3,500 calories. To lose a pound a week, you would need to eat 3,500 fewer calories a week, burn that same number of calories in a week or do a combination of the two in a week. With a few simple changes, you can reduce your caloric intake.
Lesson Summary. Let's review. Coastal erosion is the wearing away of coastal land or beaches and is mainly caused by the impact of waves. Waves do not typically strike the shore head on. Wave refraction is the bending of waves as they travel toward the shallow waters of the shore.
Effects of Wind Erosion: The smallest and finest particles are carried by the wind and collected in various areas, creating a build up of loam. Sediment crust degrades and rocks are easily weathered. Sheets of sand traveling close to the ground can degrade crops. It reduces the capacity of the soil to store nutrients.
