Huguet, J.-R.; Castelle, B.; Marieu, V.; Morichon, D., and de Santiago, I., 2016. Shoreline-sandbar dynamics at a high-energy embayed and structurally-engineered sandy beach: Anglet, SW France. In: Vila-Concejo, A.; Bruce, E.; Kennedy, D.M., and McCarroll, R.J. (eds.), Proceedings of the 14th International Coastal Symposium (Sydney, Australia). Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue, No. 75, pp. 393–397. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.Anglet beach, Basque Coast (SW France), is a 4-km long embayment bounded by a prominent headland in the South and by the southern Adour River training wall in the North. The beach is structurally-engineered with, within the embayment, 6 groins and 3 distinct sectors where the beach is backed by a seawall. The beach is high-energy intermediate, mostly double-barred, composed of medium to coarse sand with a steep beach face (∼1/10). In January 2013, a video system was installed at the Southern end of Anglet beach at about 70 m above mean sea level to monitor about 2 km of the southern beach of Anglet that includes 4 groins extending about 100 m seaward and a 1-km seawall backing the beach. The study period includes the winter 2013/2014 that was outstanding in terms of the available energy arriving at the coast with a 2-month-averaged significant wave height peaking at 3.6 m. Despite the extreme storm wave conditions during the winter 2013/2014, the outer bar crescentic patterns maintained and even further developed. The beach eroded by O(10 m) and, surprisingly and in contrast with the nearby northern open beaches, they recovered to their pre-winter 2013/2014 state within only a few months. Overall, Anglet beach appears to respond predominantly at individual storm frequency rather than at seasonal timescales, with the groins and headland acting as major controlling boundaries influencing beach state and dictating rip channel locations.
