AB - Due to depth-induced wave breaking, sand bars protect our coastlines from the impact of storm waves. Since the wave climate between an offshore wave energy converter (WEC) array and the coast will likely be modified by largescale energy extraction, this could disrupt the natural process which maintains sand bars, possibly affecting coastal erosion and flooding. Here, we investigate this hypothesised impact through application of a one-dimensional crossshore wave and sediment transport model.
