| Back | CONSTRUCTIVE: Swash > Backwash so material gets pushed to the back of the beach - these waves have low wave heights and lower wave frequencies. They are created by storms far out to sea. A steeper beach profile is formed (sand[y]).DESTRUCTIVE: Backwash > Swash so material is bein eroded from the beach profile. Material carried out to sea, higher wave heights and frequencies.
