The data set here presented aims to increase the understanding of the nearshore sediment dynamics. The experiments aimed at obtaining high quality data of hydrodynamics, sediment concentration and beach-face evolution with an intra-wave time scale. The specific objectives of CoSSedM access project were i) to obtain information of the effect of the wave group periods on the beach morphological evolution; ii) To obtain detailed sediment transport information at the inner surf and swash zones with different bi-chromatic wave conditions and iii) To obtain intra-wave measurements of beach-face evolution. The present work was developed in the framework of the HYDRALAB IV Transnational Access projects. The experiments were carried out in the large scale wave flume CIEM at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), Barcelona. This is a wave flume 100 m long, 3 m wide, and 4.5 m deep. The working water depth was at around 2.5 m over the horizontal flume section and was varied slightly depending on the wave test. A beach was installed made of commercial well-sorted sand (d50 = 0.25 mm) with an overall mean beach gradient of approximately 1:15. Due to its size, the data set can not be placed on this repository and will be provided on demand. Please contact with the authors or with the data manager of the CIEM installation.
