“…Previously, along the study region, based on visual observations of breaker heights and period, Chandramohan et al [51] estimated a southerly directed net LSTR of 0.53 × 10 5 m 3 /yr. Recently, Noujas et al [27], using a LITDRIFT model, estimated the LSTR of 1.18 × 10 5 m 3 /yr along Vengurla coast with an annual net value ranging from −7778 to −9015 m 3 /yr. The annual net value for the present study is observed to be ranging from 0.26 to 0.37 × 10 5 m 3 /yr, and the transport is towards the north.…”

“…high during this time (Figure 8). Noujas et al [27] examined the sensitivity analysis of net LSTR by increasing the wave height contribution by 10% and observed an increasing trend in LSTR. Recently, Jesbin et al [26] investigated the influence on variations in LSTR due to errors in breaking angle and breaker height and observed that they are sensitive to LST rates and could lead to large errors in their estimation.…”

The nearshore wave characteristics and variations in littoral drift (longshore sediment transport; LST) are estimated based on different approaches for four years along the Vengurla coast, with comparable wind-sea and swell energy assessed. The waverider buoy-measured data at 15 m water depth is utilized as the input wave parameters along with the reanalysis model data, and the numerical wave model Delft-3D is used for estimating the nearshore wave parameters. The relative contribution of wind-seas and swells on LST rates are specifically examined. The clear prevalence of west-southwest waves implies the prevalence of south to north longshore sediment transport with net transport varying from 0.19–0.37 × 105 m3/yr. LST is strongly dependent on the breaker angle and a small change in the wave direction substantially alters the LST, and hence reanalysis/model data with coarse resolutions produce large errors (~38%) in the LST estimate. The annual gross LST rate based on integral wave parameters is only 58% considering the wind-seas and swells separately, since the wind-sea energy is comparable to swell energy, and the direction of these two systems differs significantly.

“…Although numerous studies have explored coastal engineering aspects along Phu Quoc Island's shoreline, there has been scant literature on the Longshore Sediment Transport Rate (LSTR) up to now. Given the critical importance of LSTR for coastal engineering projects and management [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15], this study seeks to estimate the LSTR at a specific coastal cell (Cua Can Beach) on Phu Quoc Island. This estimation will provide vital data for future coastal management endeavors on the island.…”

This study conducts a critical examination of the Longshore Sediment Transport Rate (LSTR) along Cua Can Beach in Phu Quoc City, Kien Giang Province. This notable pocket beach is characterized by its natural beauty and burgeoning tourist developments. The escalating construction of tourist facilities and resorts in close proximity to the shoreline, without considering beach morphological changes, poses a significant threat to the coastal integrity and sustainable development of the region. In response to this concern, our research aims to estimate the LSTR on the west coast of Phu Quoc to advocate for informed coastal engineering management and sustainable development strategies. Employing an integrated methodology that combines remote sensing with a simplistic oneline model, this study provides a comprehensive assessment of sediment dynamics along Cua Can Beach. The findings reveal consistent annual sediment transport from south to north, with an estimated quantity ranging from 5,000 to 20,000 m³ per year.
