COASTAL GEOMORPHOLOGY A Perspective study of Beach Dune Systems and Tidal inlets of Dahanu Coast​,​ Maharashtra

The coast is a dynamic geomorphological system. Studying the coast as a system provides a framework within which interactions between many features and complex processes can be considered and expressed. A system is a state at any time defined by its variables (Woodroffe 2002) Morphology is very appropriate measure of the state of a coastal system. Accretion and erosion are the morphological states of a beach. The terms like summer beach profile and winter beach profile (King 1972) or reflective and dissipative beaches are also used to describe these states. Thus the beach system can be described in terms of such morphological states. Beach slope, length, volumes are the quantitative variables of beach systems.
