Shoreline boundary conditions? #1

Open danoroelvink opened 4 months ago

danoroelvink commented 4 months ago

Hi, thanks for putting this together! I hope we can participate with ShorelineS. However, in order to do the long-term and maybe also seasonal simulations, we'd have to know the boundary conditions for longshore transport, coastline change or coastline orientation at both ends, e.g. are there headlands or other structures blocking transport, or what is the orientation of beaches beyond transects 1 and 9?

Hi, this is an embayed beach so headlands at both ends block longshore sediment transport. For the orientation at both ends, I think it can be estimated based on the coords of shore-normal transects.
