Abstract

In this work Los Taínos beach, in Varadero, is characterized taking into account sand grain patterns, incident wind and its directions. It was made in such a way that monthly and annual behaviour of wind sediment transport capacity can be determined applying several mathematical expressions. Selection of the design year with respect to wind data was an important step, which establishes main directions of attack for this coastal segment. Also, wind-blown transport toward dunes for all the study area was determined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
