Changements morphologiques et budget sédimentaire des formes fuyantes en queue de comète de l’archipel de Molène (Bretagne, France)
From 2002 to 2009, a morphosedimentary survey of trailing accumulations forming comet tails was conducted on Trielen and Lez ar Chrizienn Islands in the archipelago of Molène (Brittany, France). In addition, an analysis of hydrodynamics, based on tidal and wave data obtained from modelling and field...

From 2002 to 2009, a morphosedimentary survey of trailing accumulations forming comet tails was conducted on Trielen and Lez ar Chrizienn Islands in the archipelago of Molène (Brittany, France). In addition, an analysis of hydrodynamics, based on tidal and wave data obtained from modelling and field measurements, was carried out. These trailing beaches are no longer actively supplied with sediments from the nearshore platform. Therefore, their morphosedimentary evolution consists in a reworking of the current stock mainly dependent on hydrodynamic conditions. When storm waves occur in conjunction with high spring tides, sediment is transported from east to west. Offshore waves diffracted when passing Ouessant Island take a meridian direction and attack the north-eastern tip of the comet tails. Sediment transport in the direction of western incident waves occurs only during periods of low wave energy.
