Small changes in wave forcing and tide elevation were found to largely impact circulation patterns. In particular, under 4-m oblique wave conditions, our measurements indicate the presence of an intense low-frequency fluctuating deflection rip flowing against the headland and extending well beyond the surf zone. An XBeach model is further set up to hindcast such flow patterns.<br><br><b>Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): <a href="https://youtu.be/EiqnjBIkWJE">https://youtu.be/EiqnjBIkWJE</a></b></html>}, number={36v}, journal={Coastal Engineering Proceedings}, author={Mouragues, Arthur and Bonneton, Philippe and Castelle, Bruno and Marieu, Vincent}, year={2020}, month={Dec.}, pages={currents.18} }
