Physical modeling of intermediate cross-shore beach morphology: transients and equilibrium states
TL;DR: In this article, a lightweight sediment model is used in order to fulfill a Shields number and Rouse number scaling, which aims at correctly reproducing bed load transport as well as suspension dynamics.
The ECORS-Truc Vert’08 nearshore field experiment: presentation of a three-dimensional morphologic system in a macro-tidal environment during consecutive extreme storm conditions

TL;DR: A large multi-institutional nearshore field experiment was conducted at Truc Vert, on the Atlantic coast of France in early 2008 as mentioned in this paper, to measure beach change on a long, sandy stretch of coast without engineering works with emphasis on large winter waves.
Control of alongshore-oriented sand spits on the dynamics of a wave-dominated coastal system (Holocene deposits, northern Gulf of Lions, France)
Olivier Raynal,Frédéric Bouchette,Raphaël Certain,Michel Séranne,Laurent Dezileau,Pierre Sabatier,Johanna Lofi,Anna Bui Xuan Hy,Louis Briqueu,Philippe Pezard,Bernadette Tessier +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the geology of the Maguelone shore of the Gulf of Lions has been analyzed using 3D sequence stratigraphy cross-shore models from Quaternary to present-day.

Conceptual modelling of sand bars morphodynamics for a microtidal beach (Sète, France)
TL;DR: In this article, the morphological evolution of the sedimentary bars can be synthesized according to two conceptual models, in reaction to hydrodynamic variability: O.P.E and N.O.M.

TL;DR: This study presents the results of a structural investigation of a system located along the coastline of the Gulf of Lions (NW Mediterranean), which provides constraints on pore-fluid salinity distribution and stratigraphic organization and suggests offshore outcrops and paleo-valleys may play an important role in salt water intrusion.
