Description:

At present, the reliability of littoral drift magnitude and direction estimates along the coast of Florida are inadequate for rational coastal engineering design. The available values of littoral drift have been estimated from various dredging and sand pumping operations at inlets, and from relatively short periods of wave observations; thus, these values may contain significant uncertainties and depart from long-term average conditions by a considerable amount. The present study utilizes a large data source of ship wave ovservations for the computation of littoral drift along segments of Florida's coast.
