- Prediction of coastal erosion rates requires in-depth understanding of sediment transport rates. Obtaining field measurements in deep water (-375 m), this study revealed that contemporary methods for predicting coastal erosion rates need to be improved. Currently, predictions are based on the mean velocity of sediment particles; this paper advances our understanding of particle movement at lower velocities, enabling development of new equations and models. The study is thus of great significance for practicing engineers and coastal managers. This research was undertaken in a partnership with the University of Western Australia, in which I acted as an external advisor.
