    Accretion is the process of coastal sediment returning to the visible portion of a beach or foreshore after a submersion event. [1] A sustainable beach or foreshore often goes through a cycle of submersion during rough weather and later accretion during calmer periods.

    Accretion is defined as the gradual collection of something over time. [1] In meteorology or atmospheric science it is the process of accumulation of frozen water as precipitation over time as it descends through the atmosphere, in particular when an ice crystal or snowflake hits a supercooled liquid droplet, which then freeze together, increasing the size of the water particle.

    If the planetesimals formed via the gravitational collapse of local concentrations of pebbles, their growth into planetary embryos and the cores of giant planets is dominated by the further accretions of pebbles. Pebble accretion is aided by the gas drag felt by objects as they accelerate toward a massive body. Gas drag slows the pebbles below ...

    These accretions meant that the force of celestial influence lacked God's purity and His ability to enforce change. Furthermore, the celestial bodies through their corporeal nature caused this flow of influence, which is perceived as visible light, to function as a bodily, rather than a spiritual, force (Hendrix, 2007).

  9. Restoration is the "returning of the existing fabric of a place to a known earlier state by removing accretions or by reassembling existing components without the introduction of new material." [18] The biggest difficulty in this technique is the lack of introducing new material. Ideally, this is the primary technique to strengthen the site ...
