The 25 pages that link to Longshore drift, each with the reason it gives.

• Coastal erosionRelated: It redistributes beach material and can leave some shoreline sections sediment-starved.

• Nile DeltaRelated: It redistributes material along the delta’s Mediterranean coastline.

• River deltaRelated: Coastal currents redistribute sediment delivered by rivers and reshape delta shorelines.

• Coastal protectionRelated: Interrupting this movement can cause sediment accumulation on one side and erosion on the other.

• Barrier islandRelated: It moves sand along barrier shorelines and helps determine island shape.

• Beach nourishmentRelated: It carries nourished sand away from the placement site and can spread benefits or impacts alongshore.

• LagoonRelated: It transports sand that can build lagoon-closing barriers.

• Coastal geomorphologyRelated: It redistributes beach sediment and helps build or erode coastal features.

• Coastal engineeringRelated: It explains why a structure can trap sand on one side and starve another.

• Cape CodRelated: It transports sand along Cape Cod’s exposed beaches and changes their profiles.

• TomboloRelated: It supplies and redistributes the sediment that can accumulate between an island and shore.

• BreakwaterRelated: A breakwater can interrupt this transport and change sediment supply downcoast.

• River mouthRelated: It can redistribute mouth deposits and build spits across an opening.

• Cape HatterasRelated: It transports sand along the Outer Banks and contributes to the cape’s changing shoreline.

• Curonian SpitRelated: It helps move sand that forms and replenishes the peninsula’s shore.

• AmanohashidateRelated: Alongshore sediment movement helps explain how coastal bars can develop and shift.

• K'gariRelated: This coastal transport helps replenish and redistribute sand along the island’s shores.

• Coastal geographyRelated: It redistributes beach material and helps explain why one stretch of shore gains sediment while another loses it.

• CooloolaRelated: It helps move sand along the shoreline adjoining Cooloola.

• Dune of PilatRelated: Coastal currents supply sand that waves deliver to the dune system.

• Flat coastRelated: It redistributes sand alongshore, building some sections while starving others.

• Shingle beachRelated: It shifts pebbles alongshore, changing shingle-beach profiles and sediment supply.

• Texas barrier islandsRelated: It moves sand along the Texas coast and helps maintain or shift island shorelines.
