Cross-shore sediment transport on mixed sand and gravel beaches

Cross-shore (onshore-offshore) sediment transport has been studied to determine the importance of sediment permeability on the equilibrium beach slope. Quick (1991) has proposed that the permeability of the beach material effects the onshore-offshore transport by changing the stresses on the beac...
