<h3>What is longshore sediment transport?</h3>
  • The collective movement of beach and nearshore sand parallel to the shore caused by the combined action of tides, wind, and waves, as well as the shore-parallel currents produced by them, is referred to as longshore transport.
  • Usually, these forces cause sand to move practically continuously, either in bedload flows or suspension.
  • This happens in an intricate, three-dimensional pattern that changes quickly over time.
  • Sand in the area of interest may occasionally have an upcoast component whereas other sand is often migrating downcoast.
