Abstract
The aim of the work is to study the longitudinal sediment transport in the coastal zone under the influence of surface waves. In the structure of surface waves, two main components are distinguished: purely wind waves and swell. For the climatic period of time, the volumes of sandy sediments, transported under the influence of wind waves and swell were calculated. The possible dominance of the swell contribution to the morphodynamic appearance of separate coastal sections is shown.
