Description:

Coastal erosion along lakes and oceans significantly affects coastal activities, resources, and property values. Conservation of coastal resources requires effective methods for controlling erosion. At this time, however, amounts or locations of coastal erosion cannot be precisely predicted. Experience shows that attempts to control natural forces (such as erosion) based on partial knowledge are sometimes disastrous. Therefore, scientists are trying to establish a workable model of the forces (for example, wind, waves, sediment size, topography) involved in natural erosion before attempting large experimental projects in erosion control. This paper measures and analyzes one component of coastal process: bluff recession. We measured rates of bluff line recession at 250 sites in six counties along the coast.
