    I just came from looking at a map of New Zealand's South Island and wondered how Farewell Spit was formed - So thank you!

      Hi, the aerial photograph of the spit at the end of the video is Farewell spit .

    Great video! This explains it really well. But how is the river involved in the formation of a spit?

      It deposits tons of sediment. Silt. Etc.

    • @ImaanMirza
      @ImaanMirza Рік тому +7

      I'm a bit late, but if anyone wants the answer...
      The river is involved, as a previous user said, to deposit sediment and salt that is collected in the salt marsh. However, it also ensures, through the river's added current, that the spit does not carry on fully to the next headland and form a bar (a coastal feature connecting two headlands together).
      Basically, it keeps the spit a spit, and stops it from forming into a bar.
      Hope this helps! Good luck :)

    the spit should form at the tip of the headland, not at the other side of the headland.
    sending on behalf of 2X of ACS International. They made me do it. I am sorry.

    • @GeographerOnline
      @GeographerOnline  8 років тому +8

      Ha ha! Thanks, strictly speaking yes, although you will never find anything in nature to perfectly fit any model :)
      Have a look at Presque isle state park on google maps and you will see a spit formation with no headland at all.

    okay, thanks for making these videos, making my revisions easier for my test tomorrow (don’t judge lol) is the headland the same as the mainland though?? I have a diagram in my book and I was wondering if it’s the same

    • @GeographerOnline
      @GeographerOnline  5 років тому +2

      The headland is part of the mainland. However, the headland is a coastal feature that is formed by erosion. There is another UA-cam on my channel that explains how a headland is formed.

    • @GeographerOnline
      @GeographerOnline  7 років тому +3

      The river prevents the spit turning into a bar and it also adds sediment to the salt marsh that is found behind the spit
