The coastline of Florida's panhandle was explored by Spanish explorers in the early 16th century. One notable explorer was Ponce de León, who is believed to have landed near present-day Pensacola in 1513 during his search for the Fountain of Youth. Another explorer, Hernando de Soto, explored the region in the 1530s, seeking riches and establishing temporary settlements. These explorations marked the beginning of European presence in the area and laid the foundation for further colonization and development along Florida's Gulf Coast.

A wide bend in a coastline is called a bay. It is an indentation or curved area of land where the coastline curves inward, often forming a sheltered body of water. Bays can range in size from small coves to large, open bays.

No, mid-ocean ridges are not located mostly along coastlines. Mid-ocean ridges are underwater mountain ranges that form where tectonic plates are pulling apart. They are located in the middle of the ocean and can extend for thousands of kilometers.

Knowing the length of a coastline is important because it helps in understanding the geographical features and complexities of a region. It also aids in measuring the accessibility and connectivity of coastal areas, which is crucial for maritime transportation and trade. Additionally, accurately measuring the coastline length allows for better planning and management of coastal resources and environmental conservation efforts.

If you are looking for fjords (a long narrow inlet) then, most fjords are found along the Norwegian coastline in Scandinavia. The word "fjord" is an import from the Norwegian language.

Made up of clay and sands. Erodes quicker than hard rock which is limestone or chalk. Not resistant to weathering and erosion. Eroded quicker than hard rock which creates a bay and the hard rock is called a headland. When you have hard rock then soft rock alternating it is called a discordant coastline.

The deadliest tsunami was the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, killing almost 230,000 people.

Although most of the New Hampshire Atlantic coastline is rocky, there are sandy beaches at Hampton, Rye, and Wallis Sands.

True but nothing spectacular. They are often rocky but are better than no beach.

Tennessee is in the eastern half of the US and it is east of the Mississippi. To be on a coast means that the land is next to the sea or ocean. Tennessee does not adjoin either the Atlantic or the Pacific. It is therefore not a coastal state. It is not an east coast state and it is not a west coast state.

Vermont is the only New England State without a Coastline and ocean access.

Australia. To the East Coast is the Pacific Ocean, the South Coast is the Southern ocean and the West Coast is the Indian Ocean. South America. To the East Coast is the (South) Atlantic Ocean, the South Coast is the Southern Ocean and the West Coast is the Pacific Ocean.

what is the first largest bay on the Atlantic coast is chesepeak bay

The oceans are about 3.5% salt (by weight). Salinity is generally reported in terms of parts per thousand (abbreviated o/oo), the number of pounds of salt per 1,000 pounds of water; the average ocean salinity is 35 o/oo.

The Pacific Ocean

no

About this part of Britain was submerged by a shallow sea, the sea bottom was made of a white mud formed from the fragments of coccoliths (skeletons if tiny algae), then the mud became chalk

Assuming you're looking for the state with the greatest north-south distance, the answer is Alaska. From its northernmost latitude to its southernmost latitude is a difference of over 20°, equating to about 1394 miles. That's more than the distance from the southern tip of California to the northern tip of Washington state.

If you meant from top to bottom, the answer would still be Alaska, since the highest elevation in the United States is the summit of Mt. McKinley in Alaska.

Yes. With 9,330 kilometers (5,798 miles) of coast along the Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea, Mexico is one of the most popular international tourist destinations in the world, and first in Latin America.

if u were just trying to get answers for your world geo homework.... u should have put ....."in mexico" on the end :)
