A GEOLOGICAL PROCESS-RESPONSE MODEL FOR ANALYSIS OF BEACH PHENOMENA,

Abstract

Beach processes and deposits are described in terms of a conceptual process-response model that considers the processes and deposits as separate though closely related aspects of shoreline phenomena. The model provides a formal framework for analysis of natural beaches as they may be modified or controlled by the beach engineer. (Author)
