19 ABSTRACT [Continue on reverse if necessary and identify by block number) 



This report documents beach profile change, wave characteristics, and other quan- 

 tities measured in two series of movable bed modeling experiments performed with the 

 Coastal Engineering Research Center's Tank for Large Waves during 1956-1957 and 1962. 

 These experiments used waves of height and period representative of field conditions. All 

 major data are listed, including profile change, incident wave height and period, height 

 and location of breaking waves, runup, water temperature, and sand grain size and fall 

 velocity. Background information on experiment procedures and conditions is given to 

 facilitate use of the data. Characteristic morphologic and cross-shore sand transport 

 properties are presented to demonstrate general trends exhibited by the data and to allow 

 comparison to other sources.
