Contribution of Infragravity Waves to Run-up and Overwash in the Pertuis Breton Embayment (France)

Contribution of Infragravity Waves to Run-up and Overwash in the Pertuis Breton Embayment (France)

Wave run-up and dune overwash are typically assessed using empirical models developed for a specific range of often-simplistic conditions. Field experiments are essential in extending these formulae; yet obtaining comprehensive field data under extreme conditions is often challenging. Here, we use X...
