Profile response C5 and C6



The profile response (before/after) of series C5 and C6 (longer period waves, low and high lagoon respectively). As with the runs with shorter wave periods, a low lagoon level promoted beachface accretion. The profile change associated with a higher lagoon level (C6) was less substantial, with some crestal accretion and relative depletion in the region of wave breaking (exit point effect?). C6 destroyed the subtidal ripple field
