Inlet Migration

Inlet Migration is the systematic lateral displacement of a tidal inlet's position over time due to the imbalance between tidal currents, wave-driven longshore sediment transport, and basin hydrodynamics, distinguishing it from other shoreline change processes by its focus on the dynamic repositioning of inlet channels within barrier coast systems.
