Summary

Abstract: The primary purpose of the USGS National Assessment of Coastal Change Project
is to provide accurate representations of pre-storm ground conditions for areas
that are designated high priority because they have dense populations or
valuable resources that are at risk from storm waves. A secondary purpose of
the project is to develop a geomorphic (land feature) coastal classification
that, with only ...
