Figure 5.1. Diagram showing the components of a conceptual long-term sediment budget for the Grand Strand region (modified from Gayes and others, 2003). Numbered arrows indicate the general direction of sediment movement. Sediment sinks include: 1. Winyah Bay, 2. North Island Spit, 3. North Inlet, 4. Murrells Inlet, 5. Hogg Inlet, 6. Little River Inlet, and 7. loss offshore. Sediment sources include: 8. rivers, 9. beach and shoreface erosion, and 10. inner-shelf erosion. See Table 5.1 for estimates of sediment volumes associated with each component. [Click here for high-resolution image.] |
