As distance from the shoreline increases in Dolphin Bay, the size of particles deposited tends to decrease while the density of particles deposited tends to increase. This is due to larger particles settling closer to the shoreline where wave action is stronger and can carry larger sediment, while smaller particles are able to travel further and settle in deeper waters.
