Concepts in Sediment Budgets
Rosati J. 2005. Concepts in Sediment Budgets. Journal of Coastal Research (JCR). 21(2):307-322
This paper reviews commonly applied sediment budget concepts and introduces new considerations intended to make the sediment budget process more reliable, streamlined, and understandable. The need for both local and regional sediment budgets is discussed, and the utility of combining, or collapsing, cells is shown to be beneficial for local budgets within a regional system.
