The objectives of this investigation were: (1) the exploration 

 of an approach that could be followed in later studies and which 

 would be centered around the execution of colored-sand experiments; 

 (2) to give a zonal breakdown of relief, flow field, sediment move- 

 ment, and colored-sand distribution, and their modification by groins 

 on various charts, and (3) to evaluate the effectiveness of various 

 types of groins and to compare the hydrographic conditions existing 

 in the shore areas of sections of coast with and without groins.

An extensive groin system built along a spit was designed 

 not only to reinforce the spit, but also to stop its end growth. 

 Initially, the inter-groin spaces were artificially filled.
