The warm and sunny weather is gone. Today we woke up with a lot of wind and clouds. The kite surfers enjoyed today, but for us reading out the data was impossible. The waves were so high that our equipment was submerged, even during low water. However, this means that we will have a lot of data when we will check the instuments next time.
In contrast to other days there was sand tranport by wind. We found some cool aeolian landforms. Below you find an example of sediment catched behind a shell.

The beach profile has changed a lot since last Monday. The intertidal bar on the beach has moved landwards. Some intruments are now covered with sand while at the seaward side the bottom has lowered.
