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 erosion impacts two places. â¢ On-site Effects. â Loss of topsoil. â Water-holding capacity of the soil. â Pollutants carried off by water. â¢ Any chemicals present on a site move with the eroded sediment or water. â¢ Off-site Effects. â Soil detached by accelerated wind or water may be transported.
