Coastal morphodynamics is the study of the processes and interactions that shape coastal landforms and environments over time. It combines aspects of geology, oceanography, sedimentology, and environmental science to understand how various factors influence coastal landscapes, including waves, tides, currents, and human activities. Key elements of coastal morphodynamics include: 1. **Sediment Transport**: The movement of sediments along the coast due to wave action, currents, and wind.
