Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of sand, a seemingly simple material that plays a crucial role in shaping our coastlines. The author examines the spatial and temporal variations in mean sand size along beaches in southern New Jersey, providing a detailed analysis of three key beaches: Long Beach Island, Atlantic City, and Ludlam Island. Through meticulous data collection and analysis, the author explores the complex interplay of factors that influence sand size distribution, including location, elevation, and time of year. Drawing upon previous studies, the author reveals that sand size on these beaches exhibits a general southward decrease, consistent with the direction of net longshore sediment transport. However, the author also uncovers unexpected patterns, such as the presence of discontinuities in sand size at specific inlets, suggesting a more nuanced relationship between sediment transport and sand size than previously understood. The book sheds light on the significant influence of wind and wave action on beach morphology, as well as the potential impact of human interventions like beach nourishment on the natural processes that shape our coastlines. Ultimately, this book offers valuable insights into the dynamics of sand and its role in defining our coastal landscapes.
