Abstract

The ability to predict the longshore sediment transport rate accurately is essential for many coastal engineering applications. Because of the existance of a large number of existing longshore transport formulae, it is important to know which formula to use/apply. Thus, the most universally applicable formula was identified and tested against a comprehensive data set. This formula (Kamphuis formula) was also re-calibrated and guidance is given regarding its use.
