摘要
Based on previous research results and experimental studies, this paper indicates the important factors affecting two-dimensional transformation of sandy beaches, especially the characteristic slope and sediment transport factor. A discrimination criterion of transformation type of sandy beaches is derived by applying the theory of wave energy dissipation rate. This criterion is closely examined with a lot of data and can be used to forecast the transformation of sandy beaches under the action of varying wave climates.
