Abstract
One of the methods to estimate sediment transport modes over a wide coastal area is proposed in this study. Lots of methods to estimate sediment transport modes have been carried out so far, however, clear indication is obtained in a limited case. In this paper the contents of heavy minerals that is the result of mineralogical analysis are used as a natural tracer indicating sediment transport modes. In order to get more clear view of sediment transport modes, the results of mineralogical analysis were processed by a statistical analysis. The method using the natural tracers is considered as one of the most effective methods in estimation of sediment transport over wide coastal area.
