Accretion and Erosion Waves on Beaches
An accretion/erosion wave is a local irregularity in beach form that moves along the shore in the direction of net littoral drift. The initial irregularity may be caused by a wide variety of events such as the bulge from an ephemeral stream delta, the material from the collapse of a sea cliff, erosion or accretion associated with convergence and divergence of wave energy over an offshore bar, erosion downdrift of a structure such as a groin, sudden loss of sand by slumping at the head of a submarine canyon, or rapid accretion due to beach nourishment as when dredge spoil is placed on a beach. Given the wide variety of causes leading to local beach irregularities, accretion/erosion waves are common transport modes along beaches.
The wave-like form of an accretion/erosion wave is related to the change in sediment transport rate along the beach (divergence of the drift). Specifically, an irregularity in beach topography along an otherwise straight...
