  abstract = {{A} new remote sensing video-based method for measuring rapid variations of the bed elevation and free-surface in the swash zone is tested on a steep reflective beach at {G}rand {P}opo. {T}he key assumption is that the free-surface has a distinguishable optical signature with respect to the bed level. {T}his new set up enables a high frequency description of the wave transformation, dissipation and reflection in the swash zone as well as the variations of the bed evolution at the wave-by-wave scale. {A}t a more integrated scale, a good correlation is found between the offshore reflected energy measured by an {ADCP}, the incident offshore wave characteristics and the swash local morphology, suggesting the importance of the swash dynamics on the energy reflection mechanism.},
