Description:
Inlets which require frequent channel dredging due to gradual shoaling,exhibit migration, or shoal up during storms, are in general unstable andpose a problem to the engineer. This problem of inlet stability is a complexone, because of the rather large number of variables that go into definingstability. The reference here is to inlets on sandy coasts only, becausethe absence of sand or similar sedimentary material the problem does notarise. Shell is also found in varying proportions with sand. Some of thisis. new, whereas in some areas it is ancient reworked material whose sizedistribution is close to that of the sand with which it is associated. (PDF has 24 pages.)
