Beach nourishment has evolved as the favored erosion-mitigation strategy in many areas of the world. The increasing number of people living on the coast, the safety of those people, and the high values of coastal properties are all factors that have made beach nourishment a cost-effective strategy for managing erosion in many locations. However, a new scenario of sand scarcity and environmental care has arisen in recent decades. There have been many different and interesting cases of various aspects of beach nourishment in recent years. The purpose of this invited Special Issue is to publish the most exciting experience and research with respect to this topic. Thus, novel techniques for designing, executing, and controlling these kinds of works as well as different case studies and their monitoring results and conclusions have been included, in order to present an updated state of the art for marine scientists, researchers, and engineers.Beach NourishmentTechnology: general issuesbicsscaerial photogrammetrybeach evaluationbeach nourishmentbeach nourishment assessmentbeach profile imbalancebeach restorationbeach-spawning fishesCancun beachCIOHcoastal erosionColombian Caribbeancolour compatibilitycostDIMARDTMecosystem managementerosionessential fish habitatfill stabilityGCPsgeologically controlled beachhuman impactshurricane damagekey coastal erosionlittoral systemsmagnetic methodmarine geophysicsmodellingmonitoringmultidata approachn/aoutfallperched beachesreproductive habitatRPASsand enginesediment budgetsedimentary dynamicsSfMshore protectionstakeholderssubstrateUAVvisualisationvolume densityXBeachTechnology: general issuesMunoz-Perez Juan Jedt1322380Moreno LuisedtMunoz-Perez Juan JothMoreno LuisothBOOK9910557337703321Beach Nourishment: A 21st Century Review3034935UNINA
