Provide the following for the louisiana coast
1 - description of coast
2 - type of coast
3 - characteristics of waves in the location
4 - where does the sediment come from?
5 - coastal erosion issues in the location and attempts to remediate
many coastlines will have different properties depending on location (ie. emergent vs. submergent, active vs. passive, etc.) be specific as to which you are talking about

Explanation:

1. Louisina coast is highly indented and going through lots of erosional activities by the waves. Plaquemines are also occurring along this coast.

2. Type of this coast is an emerging coast which is rising by 10 mm every year. But it is highly susceptible to erosional activities. We can call it alluvial coast as well .

3.  Waves here come with high speed and causes storms as well and thus are engaged in erosional actions very much.

4.  Mississippi river brings lots of sediments that gets deposited here.

5. There is depletion of wetlands. Erosion is also affected by the man made levees and other activities. Presence of canals and irrigation routes also aggravate this problem. To solve the problem, following steps have been taken -

Many projects have been implemented to restore the things here. There was done freshwater diversion where silt is reintroduced in the estuaries. New marsh grasses have been introduced to stop the problem. Mangrove trees are grown. Master plan has been developed by Louisiana State Coastal Restoration Authority to make strategy for future.
