Spit (landform) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A spit or sandspit is a deposition landform found off coasts. At one end, spits connect to land, while at the far end they exist in open water. A spit is a type of bar or beach that develops where...

Martinez and Harbaugh 1993), which simulates the development of coastal and nearshore environments affected by wave-induced erosion, ... In order to use SEDSIM WAVE for modelling the development of spits, on an event to decadal scale, it was necessary to make modifications to the operation of the model by the alteration...

The paper describes the development of a system to enable a coastal simulation model to be optimised for investigating the growth of structures with a morphometry similar to that of coastal spits.

Collectively the coastal wetlands and spits/barriers contain some of the most threatened environments in Canterbury and provide some of the last remnants of the coastal/lowland indigenous habitats and their species (see 1.3.1 Terrestrial and Freshwater Ecosystems, Habitats and Species).

In addition, barrier islands, spits and bars are also common features. The Baltic Sea by contrast is classed as micro-tidal. In fact the tidal range here is extremely small, from 0.08 m to 0.18 m. This has important consequences for the nature of the coastal landforms which occur in the area.

Nova Scotia has a great variety of coastal landforms. Erosional features are predominant, but the landforms produced vary according to the geology and glacial history. Depositional landforms, beaches and marshes are being formed as a result ... Barrier Beaches and Baymouth Bars; Spits; Tombolos; Pocket Beaches; General...

Many spits also display cyclic phases of evolution, perhaps reflecting cyclic patterns of sediment supply. When coastal sediments abound, the spits tend to prograde, both in length and width. If the sediment supply diminishes, the wave processes continue to move material along the feature;
