Literature Review on the Geologic Aspects of Inner Shelf Cross-Shore Sediment Transport (Classic Reprint)

This book delves into the geological aspects of cross-shore sediment transport on the inner shelf, which is the region of the continental shelf extending from the seaward boundary of the surf zone to the landward boundary of the continental shelf. The study of this subject is crucial for understanding short and long-term shoreline changes, beach sediment storage fluctuations, and the morphology and stratigraphy of the inner shelf. The author examines sediment transport mechanisms, surf zone and inner shelf transport dynamics, beach-inner shelf sediment exchange, and the impact of episodic storms on sedimentation and stratigraphy. The book illuminates the complex interdependence of processes affecting sediment transport on the inner shelf, addressing the influence of the geological framework and hydrodynamic conditions on sediment movement. Drawing on scientific studies and case studies, the author provides insights into the transport of sediment across the inner shelf, its impact on the evolution of coastal landforms, and its implications for engineering works such as beach nourishment and dredged material placement.
