Cross-shore suspended sand and bed load transport on beaches

Simple formulas are developed to predict the time-averaged rates of cross-shore suspended sand and bed load transport. The net suspended sand transport rate is expressed as the product of the depth-averaged current and the suspended sediment volume per unit bottom area with a reduction factor that a...
