Modelling the contribution of wind waves to Cap Ferret's updrift erosion

International audience Wind waves breaking at an angle with the shoreline force the drifting of littoral sediments, which is known for contributing to the formation and growth of barrier spits. Intriguingly, increased rates of longshore wave power have also been associated with the erosion of some b...
