The two correct answers regarding the purpose of beach nourishment are:

  1. To replenish sand on a beach to mitigate beach erosion for a period of time.
  2. To help ocean life survive after beach erosion (though this is a less direct purpose, it can be an indirect benefit of maintaining beach habitats).

The other options do not accurately describe the purpose of beach nourishment.
