Spectral Wave-Driven Bedload Transport Across a Coral Reef Flat/Lagoon Complex
Coral reefs are an important source of sediment for reef-lined coasts and help to maintain beaches by providing protection though dissipation of wave energy. Understanding the mechanisms that deliver sediment to the coast from coral reefs and quantifying
