Beach response to a sequence of extreme storms
Giovanni Coco,Nadia Senechal,A. Rejas,Karin R. Bryan,Sylvain Capo,J.P. Parisot,Jenna Brown,Jamie MacMahan +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a sequence of daily beach surveys acquired over one month covering an area larger than 100,000m 2, was analyzed to study morphological changes resulting from a cluster of storms.

Monitoring Beach Topography and Nearshore Bathymetry Using Spaceborne Remote Sensing: A Review
Edward Salameh,Frédéric Frappart,Rafael Almar,Paulo Agostinho Nogueira Baptista,Georg Heygster,Bertrand Lubac,Daniel Raucoules,Luis Pedro Almeida,Erwin W. J. Bergsma,Sylvain Capo,Marcello de Michele,Déborah Idier,Zhen Li,Vincent Marieu,Adrien Poupardin,Paulo A. Silva,Imen Turki,Benoit Laignel +17 more
TL;DR: An overview of the current state of spaceborne-based remote sensing techniques used to estimate the topography and bathymetry of beaches, intertidal, and nearshore areas is presented and some insights about the potential of these techniques when using data provided by new and future satellite missions are provided.

Equilibrium shoreline modelling of a high-energy meso-macrotidal multiple-barred beach
Bruno Castelle,Vincent Marieu,Stéphane Bujan,Sophie Ferreira,Jean-Paul Parisot,Sylvain Capo,Nadia Senechal,Thomas Chouzenoux +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied two behavior-oriented equilibrium shoreline models that relate the rate of cross-shore shoreline displacement to the wave energy and wave energy disequilibrium.

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
Nadia Senechal,Stéphane Abadie,E. L. Gallagher,Jamie MacMahan,Gerd Masselink,Hervé Michallet,Ad Reniers,Ad Reniers,B. Gerben Ruessink,Paul Russell,Damien Sous,Ian L. Turner,Fabrice Ardhuin,Philippe Bonneton,Stéphane Bujan,Sylvain Capo,Raphaël Certain,Rodrigo Pedreros,Thierry Garlan +18 more
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.
Glacial ice and atmospheric forcing on the Mertz Glacier Polynya over the past 250 years.
Philippine Campagne,Xavier Crosta,Marie-Noëlle Houssais,Didier Swingedouw,Sabine Schmidt,Antoine Martin,Emmanuel Devred,Sylvain Capo,Vincent Marieu,Ivia Closset,Guillaume Massé +10 more
TL;DR: Spectral analysis of the data sets reveals large and abrupt changes in sea surface and bottom water conditions with a ~70-year cyclicity, associated with the Mertz Glacier Tongue calving and regrowth dynamics.
