💨 Abstract

Tropical Cyclone Alfred battered Australia's east coast, causing the death of one person and leaving four missing. The storm has caused significant coastal erosion, particularly on the Gold Coast, known for its smooth, sandy beaches. Around 2,000 Olympic swimming pools worth of sand is estimated to be gone, with 80% of Gold Coast's beaches affected.
