TL;DR: In this paper, two different approaches were tested to estimate the elevation of extreme storm wave runup: (1) a parametric model based on offshore wave conditions and local beach slope and (2) the XBeach process-based model that solves implicitly the runup.

TL;DR: De Santiago et al. as mentioned in this paper analyzed the temporal and spatial variability of nearshore sandbars on the pocket beach of Zarautz using daily video observations over 2 years, and evaluated if the engineered and natural sections of the beach present different morphological behaviors.

TL;DR: The methodology followed to implement social distancing recommendations in the COVID-19 context along the beaches of the coast of Gipuzkoa by means of automated coastal videometry showed a strong receptivity from beach users and that real time information of beach occupation can help in short-term/daily beach management.

TL;DR: In this paper, a time-series analysis of climate change indicators within the Bay of Biscay, including the Basque coast, was conducted to detect trends on 19 indicators, including marine physics, chemistry, atmosphere, hydrology, geomorphology, biodiversity, and commercial species.

TL;DR: Huguet et al. as mentioned in this paper studied the sandbar dynamics at a high-energy embayed and structurally-engineered sandy beach in the Basque Coast (SW France), which is a 4 km long embayment bounded by a prominent headland in the South and by the southern Adour River training wall in the North.
