A unified approach has been developed to assess the integral alongshore sediment transport for the conditions of heterogeneous pebble and sandy beaches. The energy formulas for determining the sediment discharge have been modified for the conditions for calculating the integral alongshore sediment transport on heterogeneous pebble and sandy beaches. For this, the coefficient included in the energy formulas is determined using the Ackers-White method.
