Shoreline evolution of an initially cosine-shaped beach (a distance of one beach cusp height added to the shoreline position) Sand Discharge from a River Acting as a Point Source 54. If a river mouth is small in comparison to the area into which it is discharging sand, the discharge may be approximated by a point source. The sand discharge from the river or the strength of the point source is denoted 3 as q and is a function of time. (The units of q_ are m /sec.) A solu- K K tion may be obtained by considering the continuous sand discharge from the river to be the sum of discretely released quantities of sand at consecutive 37.
