Summary edit

Description

Swash line on a marine beach in Florida, USA. (December 2012)

Swash lines are sedimentary structures in sandy beach facies that consist of irregularly curvilinear, thin ridges of sediment, sometimes mixed with organic debris, and often slightly coarser-grained than surrounding sediments. The lines mark the maximum landward extent of water from individual waves washing ashore.

Orientation: landward is up; seaward is down.

Locality: swash zone of marine beach near the southern end of Cayo Costa Island, southwestern Florida, USA
