Water flows parallel to the shore and this is reflected in the orientation of sandbanks. Typically, sandbanks of the English Channel and southern North Sea rise 10 to 25 m above the sea floor and are 10 to 30 km long and 1 to 3 km wide. [2] [1] [3] The volume of material in some of the banks has been estimated at between 70 and 1100 Million m 3 ...
Shoals can appear as a coastal landform in the sea, where they are classified as a type of ocean bank, or as fluvial landforms in rivers, streams, and lakes. A shoal–sandbar may seasonally separate a smaller body of water from the sea, such as: Marine lagoons; Brackish water estuaries; Freshwater seasonal stream and river mouths and deltas.
The centre of the bank is about 13 km north-east off Ingoldmells Point, Lincolnshire. The water depth ranges from 1 m to 30 m below sea-level. [1] The Inner Dowsing Bank together with the adjacent Race Bank and North Ridge Bank have been designated a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and a Marine Protected Area (MPA). [1]
Dogger Bank (Dutch: Doggersbank, German: Doggerbank, Danish: Doggerbanke) is a large sandbank in a shallow area of the North Sea about 100 kilometres (62 mi) off the east coast of England. During the last ice age, the bank was part of a large landmass connecting mainland Europe and the British Isles , now known as Doggerland .
During the most recent glaciation of the Last Glacial Maximum, the North Sea and much of the British Isles were covered with glacial ice, and the sea level was about 120 m (390 ft) lower. The climate later became warmer, and around 12,000 BCE, Great Britain, as well as much of the North Sea and the English Channel, was an expanse of low-lying ...

The Cleaver Bank (Dutch: Klaverbank) is a sandbank in the North Sea about 160 kilometres (99 miles) off the west coast of the Netherlands and south of the Dogger Bank. The size of the bank is about 1235 km 2. The bank is 30-40 metres below sea level. [1]
