Longshore sediment transport by large-scale lake circulations at low-energy, non-tidal beaches: A field and model study

Low-energy, non-tidal lake beaches are known to be subject to longshore morphodynamics, but little is known about how they are driven by wind and wave-driven currents. Lake Markermeer is a shallow (∼4 m deep), wind-dominated lake, of approximately 700 km². A gradient in wind-induced water level set-up at the leeward shore induces a...
