“…This level must be below the limit of the seagrass berm. The estimation of the sand profile was performed by considering that the dip of the sand profile was constant under the seagrass berm and under the water (based on the schematic profile of banquettes proposed by [7]). Immediately before the seagrass berm, a representative segment of the sand profile was searched, and it was elongated until it intersected the horizontal level of reference.…”

“…As the aim of this work was to estimate the variations of sand, it was considered to separate both. If it was assumed that the dip of the sand tended to be constant, and that the seagrass was deposited on the sand during storms, it was reasonable to consider that the sand and seagrass were separated by the extent of the sand profile (representative profile based on Reference [7]). We were aware that the seagrass berm can also contain sand and silt, although we assumed that can be considered insignificant compared with the total volume of sand lost.…”

“…The morphology and water circulation of a beach can be influenced by detached seaweed and seagrasses, which can be accumulated, forming patches and wrack banks on the beach [2][3][4][5][6]. These accumulations of this detached material are referred as seagrass berms [7], although they have also been named in the scientific literature as beach-cast, beach wrack, or beach strand [8], or "banquettes" according to the French naming [9][10][11].…”

Along many Mediterranean coasts, the detached seagrass material of Posidonia oceanica creates seagrass berms that control the structure and morphodynamics of sandy beaches. Here, we show how Terrestrial Laser Scanner remote sensing data allows analyzing the 3-D morphologic change of beaches where this characteristic geomorphic structure is present. We propose a methodology for estimating accretion/erosion (almost −200 m 3 in our study) by considering the sand dominated and seagrass berms as two independent elements. For this purpose, two different sampling dates (named scenarios A and B, before and after an erosive heavy storms period, respectively) recorded in a microtidal pocket-beach (300 m 2 ) with these characteristic geomorphic structures have been modeled in 3-D. The present approach constitutes a cost-efficient, accurate, and quick tool to survey the sand volume in natural and artificial replenished beaches. The innovative approach, which can be considered as a conceptual and methodological starting point, can be useful to examine long-term and high-precision data sets in future studies of the morphodynamic evolution of these characteristic Mediterranean beaches.

“…Since the twentieth century, they became areas of focus for large-scale restoration and vegetation protection projects of mostly black pine (Pinus thunbergii Parl. ), which is recognized to be hardier than other tree species in coastal environments of Korea (Choi et al 2013). Coastal environments in Korea are remarkably prone to deleterious hydrometeorological extremes of windstorms and typhoons.…”
