Researchers at the UNSW Water Research Laboratory have been tracking the variability, changes and trends in coastal erosion at Narrabeen-Collaroy since 1976. In April 2015, a severe east coast low battered the coastline of Sydney, with maximum waves reaching a record-breaking 14.9m. In this time lapse video UNSW's Narrabeen-Collaroy coastal imaging station recorded the subsequent 25m of erosion and gradual recovery.
