This article talks about recent work done on coastal geomorphology. New studies talked about in this report question and dispute some preexisting concepts about coastal processes. This article talks about hydrology and sediment transport specific to coasts. It focuses on past sedimentation processes, recent large-scale natural events and human activity that is effecting coasts lines. It also points out that there is a problem with the lack of communication between specialized geomorphologists. The article states that coastal geomrphology is leading the way for using new technology to do research. Like using video imagery.
