“…The lows between ridges represent former high-water zones where continual reworking by the sea removes fine material in the backwash. The presence of fine material in ridges, and its beneficial effect for plants, explains the very characteristic patterns of vegetated ridges and bare lows which are better exemplified at Dungeness and Orfordness than anywhere else in the U.K. Shingle beaches with sand, such as Blakeney or Culbin (Fuller, 1975), have a very different ecology, more like that of sand dunes.…”
