marine regression
Definición
- A marine regression is a sustained retreat of the sea below its former limits, resulting in a lowering of the coastline and an increase in the area of land area. This retreat may be the consequence of a general lowering of sea level, the lowering of the level of an enclosed or semi-enclosed sea due to an imbalance between inflow and outflow, particularly through evaporation, or the uplift of the earth's crust. This is one of the movements of epirogenesis. (Adapted and translated from: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9gression_marine)
