According to Dean,R.G.,(2002), what is Beach?

According to Dean, R.G. (2002), "Beach" refers to a landform along the shoreline of an ocean, sea, lake, or river. It is typically composed of loose particles such as sand, gravel, pebbles, or cobblestones. Beaches are dynamic environments that constantly change due to the action of waves, tides, and currents. They serve as recreational areas, habitats for various organisms, and natural buffers against coastal erosion.
