Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the distribution of sediments within a beach ridge complex to demonstrate how this understanding can be applied to artificial beach replenishment, a method of protecting and restoring shorelines that have undergone extensive erosion. Beach replenishment involves adding new sediment to a beach to compensate for the sediment that has been lost. However, the author emphasizes that the sediment used for replenishment must match the texture and composition of the existing beach material for effective and lasting results. The book also explores the broader geological processes that have shaped and continue to affect the beach ridge complex.
