How Effective Were the Beach Nourishments at Cancun?
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Beach nourishment is generally seen as the preferred means of rectifying coastal erosion, due to its low environmental impact and natural evolution. The largest beach nourishment project ever carried out in Mexico took place on Cancun beach in 2006, as a

Wave Dissipation and Sediment Transport Patterns during Shoreface Nourishment towards Equilibrium
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Implementing shoreface nourishment is an effective method to protect sandy beaches. A better understanding of the equilibrium mechanism of shoreface nourishments is necessary for coastal engineering designs and constructions. Two experiments on the beach

Emergent behavior in a coupled economic and coastline model for beach nourishment [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2011 Developed coastal areas often exhibit a strong systemic coupling between shoreline dynamics and economic dynamics. "Beach nourishment", a common erosion-control practice, involves mechanically depositing sediment from outside the local littoral system ...
