| Zusammenfassung |
| The morphological changes caused by storm events in two Barcelona beaches
were recorded using video monitoring techniques during the period 2001–2006.
Changes in shoreline position and configuration and submerged bar position
and shape were analyzed during the 25 major storm events that occurred
during the study period. Beach responses to storms were grouped into three
categories: shoreline advance or retreat (including rotation), sandbar
migration and/or configuration change (linear or crescentic shape) and
formation of megacusps. This work provides examples of the differential
adaptation of both beaches to the same storm and of some unexpected
morphological responses of both beaches. The response of the beach to storm
events is not straightforward because wave conditions are not the only
relevant parameter to be considered. In particular, in such embayed beaches
it is crucial to take into account their specific morphodynamic
configuration prior to the storm. |
