Ingression coast refers to a coastal landscape characterized by the process of geological or geomorphological changes that occur due to the rising of sea levels, leading to the flooding of low-lying areas. This phenomenon can result in the inundation of land, altering the coastal ecosystems and landforms. The term is not commonly used in geological literature, but it may relate to concepts such as transgression (the landward movement of ocean water) and regression (the seaward movement of the shoreline).
