Kalutara sand spit reconstruction

A modelling study to inform decision makers on how best to reconstruct the Kalutara sand spit, which disintegrated after ad hoc artificial breaching during high river flow in 2017, exposing low-lying development behind it. The work advances sand spit rehabilitation modelling techniques that can be applied to similar natural or artificial breaches elsewhere.
