Dredging sand for beach renourishment: this is mining sand offshore and placing on a beach to replace sand eroded by storms or wave action. This enhances the recreational and protective function of the beach, which are also eroded by human activity. This is typically performed by a cutter-suction dredge or trailing suction hopper dredge. This particular pipeline is about a kilometer long! #dredging #dredgingvessel #dredgingpumps #beachnourishment #beachrenourishment #iatros7 #shotoniphone #shotonmyiphone (at Palm Beach, Aruba) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpkhggFAjPc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=k0s4y9e9t1yj
