Estimating coastal slope of sandy beach from ICESat-2: a case study in Texas

Coastal slope is a fundamental land characteristic that can influence the hydrodynamic and morphological processes, which is the essential parameter to calculate the wave setup and wave run up for further estimating extreme coastal water levels. Slope information of coastal zones also plays a key ro...
