Coasts

Coasts. Coasts can be active or passive erosional or depositional. Parts of a beach. Wave refraction along a straight coast. The gentler the beach slope, the finer the beach sediments tend to be, as can be seen from these profiles of the Half Moon Bay, California. Elevation (ft).

EQUILIBRIUM BEACH PROFILE

EQUILIBRIUM BEACH PROFILE. Conceptually the result of balancing constructive and destructive forces. Really a misnomer because equilibrium never reached. WHY? Sediment dynamics happen much slower than ever- changing hydrodynamics. EQUILIBRIUM BEACH PROFILE - APPROACHES.
