Fig. 3.23(b) Distribution of alongshore current velocity and sédiment transport
across surf zone for December.
January to November for clear visualization in Fig. 3.24(b). The distribution for the month of December has been plotted separately in Fig. 3.24(c).
The sédiment transport across the surf zone is about 4,500 m3/3 hrs during
normal wave climate and 45,000 m3/3 hrs during cyclone Thane. The foregoing results clearly bring ont the effect of extreme event on the sédiment
transport in the Coastal zone.
