Spectral Wave-Driven Bedload Transport Across a Coral Reef Flat/Lagoon Complex
Coral reefs are an important source of sediment for reef-lined coasts and help to maintain beaches by providing protection though dissipation of wave energy. Understanding the mechanisms that deliver sediment to the coast from coral reefs and quantifying the total volume of sediment generated at cor...
