CLIMATE CONTROL ON WINTER WAVE ACTIVITY IN THE NORTHEAST ATLANTIC AND IMPACTS ON BEACH EROSION AND RECOVERY ALONG THE WEST COAST OF EUROPE
International audience The west coast of Europe is exposed to high-energy winter waves generated in the North Atlantic Ocean by low pressure systems traveling eastward. The present study builds on recent research on atmospheric and ocean wave climate in the North East Atlantic over the last 70 years...
