Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)This thesis examines morphological change and processes causing change on shore platforms formed in five different lithologies around New Zealand. Study platforms located at Kaikoura, Akaroa Harbour and Lake Waikaremoana are variously eroded into limestone, greywacke, basalt and two types of mudstone.
