Abstract

The San Francisco estuary inlet and tidal bar is a highly complex system that strongly influences littoral processes on adjacent beaches. Ocean Beach is about 4 miles long, located near the entrance to the estuary (Figures 1 and 2). The purpose of the study was to investigate the extent and causes of shoreline variability at Ocean Beach, and identify possible sand transport processes and directions based on available information (Moffatt & Nichol Engineers, 1994; 1995).
