This contribution presents the response of experimental management methods implemented along 2 km stretch of the southwest coast of France with the objective to restore aeolian dynamics and foredune mobility to promote quasi alongshore-uniform landward foredune migration. The analysis based on eight airborne LiDAR campaigns and several morphometric indicators shows that the alongshore and temporal variability of foredune evolution depends on natural dynamics and contrasted managed strategies. These experiments offer new perspectives and guidelines for coastal dune managers in areas where chronic erosion threatens fixed dune systems.Read less <
