Since the coastline length is known to be dependent on the measurement resolution (Mandelbrot 1967), we have measured the lengths of coastlines for the ten regions listed in Table 1 with a resolution of 100 km or approximately 1° in latitude (and also in longitude near the equator), and the land area surrounded by such smoothed coastlines.
The coastline is smooth with few anchorages.
Miles and miles of coastline and smooth asphalt make it the skating city.
Thus, features extended out into the lake will receive more wave energy, and the tendency is to smooth out an irregular coastline.
Make sure to make the borders of the landmasses are jagged (like coastline), not smooth and curvy (unless you have a very good, in-your-world reason for doing this, not just because you're lazy).
Two seas – the Adriatic to the east, the Ionian to the west – have sculpted coastlines of smooth beaches, rocky coves and sheer cliffs.
The T'aebaek Mountains nearly reach the sea, and the contour of the coastline is steep and smooth.
Smooth, with gentle curves, it reveals a coastline that looks wild and unspoiled.
Moreover, at meso-scale, the presence of an undulated and smooth soil-less surface, extending from the coastline to the top of the step where boulder deposits are arranged, could be considered significant evidence of a tsunami impact (Kelletat and Schellmann, 2002; Whelan and Kelletat, 2003).
Within hours of leaving Perth, we were barreling along a straight, smooth highway, red desert to our right and coastline to our left, tweaking the steering wheel only to avoid the occasional flattened kangaroo.
