  • Geologic Resources Inventory Scoping Summary Lewis and Clark National and State Historical Parks
    Geologic Resources Inventory Scoping Summary Lewis and Clark National and State Historical Parks, Oregon and Washington Geologic Resources Division Prepared by John Graham National Park Service January 2010 US Department of the Interior The Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) provides each of 270 identified natural area National Park System units with a geologic scoping meeting and summary (this document), a digital geologic map, and a Geologic Resources Inventory report. The purpose of scoping is to identify geologic mapping coverage and needs, distinctive geologic processes and features, resource management issues, and monitoring and research needs. Geologic scoping meetings generate an evaluation of the adequacy of existing geologic maps for resource management, provide an opportunity to discuss park-specific geologic management issues, and if possible include a site visit with local experts. The National Park Service held a GRI scoping meeting for Lewis and Clark National and State Historical Parks (LEWI) on October 14, 2009 at Fort Clatsop Visitors Center, Oregon. Meeting Facilitator Bruce Heise of the Geologic Resources Division (NPS GRD) introduced the Geologic Resources Inventory program and led the discussion regarding geologic processes, features, and issues at Lewis and Clark National and State Historical Parks. GIS Facilitator Greg Mack from the Pacific West Regional Office (NPS PWRO) facilitated the discussion of map coverage. Ian Madin, Chief Scientist with the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI), presented an overview of the region’s geology. On Thursday, October 15, 2009, Tom Horning (Horning Geosciences) and Ian Madin (DOGAMI) led a field trip to several units within Lewis and Clark National and State Historical Parks.

The mapping methodology is summarized in Harney et al (2008). This data summary report provides information on geomorphic and biological features of 4,694 km of shoreline mapped for the 2012 survey of Northwest Alaska. The habitat inventory is comprised of 3,469 along-shore segments (units), averaging 1,353 m in length (note that the AK Coast 1:63,360 digital shoreline shows this mapping area encompassing 3,095 km, but mapping data based on better digital shorelines represent the same area with 4,694 km stretching along the coast). Organic/estuary shorelines (such as estuaries) are mapped along 744.4 km (15.9%) of the study area. Bedrock shorelines (Shore Types 1-5) are extremely limited along the shoreline with only 0.2% mapped. Close to half of the shoreline is classified as Tundra (44.3%) with low, vegetated peat the most commonly occurring tundra shore type. Approximately a third (34.1%) of the mapped coastal environment is characterized as sediment-dominated shorelines (Shore Types 21-30).

Received: 1 July 2020; Accepted: 16 July 2020; Published: 22 July 2020 Abstract: Infragravity (IG) waves are expected to contribute significantly to coastal flooding and sediment transport during hurricane overwash, yet the dynamics of these low-frequency waves during hurricane impact remain poorly documented and understood. This paper utilizes hydrodynamic measurements collected during Hurricane Harvey (2017) across a low-lying barrier-island cut (Texas, U.S.A.) during sea-to-bay directed flow (i.e., overwash). IG waves were observed to propagate across the island for a period of five hours, superimposed on and depth modulated by very-low frequency storm-driven variability in water level (5.6 min to 2.8 h periods).

  • Coastal Sediment Cells for the Mid-West Coast

Report prepared by Seashore Engineering Pty Ltd and Geological Survey of Western Australia for the Western Australian Department of Transport, Fremantle. The custodian of the digital dataset is the Department of Transport. Photographs used are from WACoast30. The Department of Transport acknowledges Bob Gozzard from Geological Survey of Western Australia for providing the images. Geological Survey of S e a s h o r e E n g i n e e r i n g Western Australia 2 Executive summary The aim of this report is to identify a hierarchy of sediment cells to assist planning, management, engineering, science and governance of the Mid-West coast. Sediment cells are spatially discrete areas of the coast within which marine and terrestrial landforms are likely to be connected through processes of sediment exchange, often described using sediment budgets. They include areas of sediment supply (sources), sediment loss (sinks), and the sediment transport processes linking them (pathways). Sediment transport pathways include both alongshore and cross-shore processes, and therefore cells are best represented in two-dimensions. They are natural management units with a physical basis and commonly cross jurisdictional boundaries. Sediment cells provide a summary of coastal data in a simple format and can be used to: 1.

  • The Impact of Typhoon Pamela (1976) on Guam's Coral Reefs and Beaches!
    Pacific Science (1978), vol. 32, no. 2 © 1978 by The University Press of Hawaii. All rights reserved The Impact of Typhoon Pamela (1976) on Guam's Coral Reefs and Beaches! JAMES G. OGG 2 and J. ANTHONY KOSLOW 2 ABSTRACT: Located on a main typhoon corridor, Guam receives approxi­ mately one tropical cyclone per year. Typhoon Pamela, Guam's third most intense typhoon of this century, generated 8-meter waves, but these had little direct effect on Guam's coral reefs, even on the exposed northern and eastern sides ofthe island. Damage to the reefs was isolated and in the form ofbreakage due to extraneous material being worked over the reef by the surf and surge. These findings are contrasted with reports of typhoon-induced, large-scale reef destruction, mostly from areas off the major storm tracks. Guam's reef formations have developed in a way that enables them to withstand intense wave assault. Pamela caused significant modification of Guam's northern and eastern beaches, however. Most vegetation was removed to an elevation of 3 to 4 meters above mean lower low water, and the beach profiles were reduced from pretyphoon 8°_5° slopes to 3°_5° slopes through the transport ofsand seaward. The first stage of recovery is the retreat and steepening of the lower beach. Longshore transport of sand during the typhoon yielded net erosion or de­ position of up to 25 m3 per meter of beach face. The maximum height of the wave surges along the coast was linearly related to the width of reef flat and beach traversed.

    CORI Project: 12-18 30 June 2013 ShoreZone Coastal Habitat Mapping Protocol for Oregon (v. 3) 2013 prepared for Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Newport, Oregon prepared by: John R. Harper Coastal & Ocean Resources Mary Morris Archipelago Marine Research Ltd. Sean Daley Coastal & Ocean Resources COASTAL & OCEAN RESOURCES ARCHIPELAGO MARINE RESEARCH LTD. 759A Vanalman Ave 525 Head Street Victoria, BC V8Z 3B8 Canada Victoria BC V9A 5S1 Canada 250 658-4050 (250) 383-4535 www.coastalandoceans.com www.archipelago.ca SUMMARY The coastal zone is a crucial interface for terrestrial and marine organisms, human activities, and dynamic processes. ShoreZone is a coastal habitat mapping and classification system that specializes in (a) the collection of spatially-referenced aerial imagery of the intertidal zone and and classification of visible features in that imagery. ShoreZone provides an integrated, searchable inventory of geomorphic and biological features which can be used as a tool for science, education, management, and environmental hazard mitigation. This report provides documentation of the ShoreZone Coastal Habitat Mapping Program in the State of Oregon. The protocol is meant to: Provide an overview of the ShoreZone program and its procedures. Specify standards for image collection and intertidal/nearshore habitat mapping so that users will have an understanding of the methodology and to ensure consistency in its use. Provide illustrated examples of mapped features from Oregon. The ShoreZone system utilizes spatially referenced, oblique aerial video and digital still imagery of the coastal zone collected during the lowest daylight tides of the year. Image interpretation and mapping is accomplished by a team of physical and biological scientists.
