Cross-shore suspended sediment transport in relation to topographic changes in the intertidal zone of a macro-tidal beach (Mariakerke, Belgium)

Sediment transport is a key element in intertidal beach morphodynamics, but measurements of sediment transport are often unreliable. The aim of this study is to quantify and investigate cross-shore sediment transport and the resulting topographic changes for a tide-dominated, sandy beach. Two fortnight-long field experiments were carried out...
