Predicted surfzone averaged alongshore currentswill be provided for each MOP transect on a relatively straight beach without obstructions. A seasonalcross-shore bathymetry profile is assumed if thereis no recent survey data.

A data-adaptive cross-shore radiation stress (Sxx) model will provide beach change predictions for MOP Polygons with sufficient beach survey information.
