Abstract: | The characteristics of topography of the coastal zones composed of carbonate and crystalline rocks are considered. In the
coastal zones there occur outcropping tropical karst, rock ledges shaped like greywethers or coastal balls having a subaerial
origin. An outer resemblance of these convergent formations with abrasion landforms is highlighted. |
