This can be a major sink for the sediment budget of a shoreline.

Managed retreat is often a response to a change in sediment budget or to sea level rise.

Department of Environment and a revised sediment budget for the area are compiled in this review.

Wave swash and currents can impact significantly on the sediment budget, although it is difficult to measure.

A campaign should be undertaken to resolve the sand sediment budget in order to better estimate the benefits of dredging.

The sediment budget takes into consideration sediment sources and sinks within a system.

Rill network development and sediment budgets.

"Problems arise when we artificially interfere with the sediment budget - by building groynes to stop longshore drift of sand," he said.

Sub-cells are usually defined to better measure the sediment budget of a coast with varying rates of accretion and erosion.

Construct a simple sediment budget for each catchment using source to stream connectivity data and the relative contribution of major sediment sources.

Careful analysis will be required by competent coastal geologists/physical oceanographers in order to ascertain the sediment budget required to maintain these beaches.

My role is to investigate the catchment-scale sediment budget and to undertake modelling of sediment flux to the barrages over the long-term.

Fluvial discharge exerts a strong control on beach development with resultant deltas forming important sediment stores within the beach sediment budget.

Passive margins defined by a large fluvial sediment budget and those dominated by coral and other biogenous processes generally have a similar morphology.

However, this activity most commonly has the impact of significantly changing the sediment budgets of streams, potentially accelerating the rate of change of the channel structure.

Research context: The movement of wind-blown sand delivered from the nearshore littoral system to beach and dune systems is an important component in most coastal sediment budgets.
