- •
Arcuate Niger Delta coast experiences largest summer (winter) erosion (accretion).
- •
9.1 km2 deltaic land lost to erosion from 2010 to 2012 due to Niger channel dredging.
- •
Degeneration of link between fluvial sediment flux and coastal hydrodynamics exists.
- •
Human interference to deltaic system reduced sediment delivery to delta coast.
- •
Delta coast influences by cross- (long-) shore transport at short- (long) term.
