Beach buildings on poles and their implications for duneward sediment transport: a numerical study

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

Sandy beaches are attractive worldwide. An increasing number of beach users induces a higher demand for buildings at the beach-dune interface. These buildings alter the local flow speed and direction which, in turn, changes the aeolian sand transport around buildings, and the sediment supply to the dunes. This study aims to understand how and to what extent beach buildings on poles affect duneward sediment transport.
