Sandy beaches act as a primary buffer between the open sea and the coast, dissipating wave energy and protecting human settlements, infrastructure, ecosystems and recreational assets. Beach monitoring, encompassing systematic surveys of shoreline position, cross-shore profiles, and sediment characteristics is a requirement for understanding coastal morphodynamics.
