    Abstract:

    The problem of coastline evolution in the presence of varying wave-climate is studied. Statistical moments are introduced to investigate shoreline evolution and variability. Equations for these quantities are developed and solved, for given wave-climate statistics. These equations describe theoretically the time-dependent averaged solution, and its dependence on wave-climate; and circumvents computationally intensive Monte-Carlo simulations.
