Modelling of Coastal Overwash : Review and application of state-of-art empirical, numerical and analytical methods
Coastal overwash is the flow of water and sediment over the crest of the beach that does not directly return to the water body, such as the ocean, sea, bay or lake, where it originated. There are two different phases of overwash, runup overwash and inundation overwash. Washover is the sediment transported and deposited inland by overwash process.
