Overwash Processes

Overwash Processes is a geomorphological phenomenon characterized by the landward transport of water, sediment, and debris across a barrier shoreline during extreme hydrodynamic events, distinguishing it from routine shoreline processes through its threshold-dependent initiation and transformative impact on coastal topography.
