Book excerpt: This report is a compendium of beach nourishment project characteristics for 20 typical U.S. shore segments for which the use of beach fill sediments from offshore borrow source areas has been suggested as a remedy for shore erosion. Data are provided to establish a basis for long-range planning of nourishment projects and systems. For each example project, the data provided consist of: history and description, location and bathymetry, fill and borrow site characteristics and specifications, design fill section, sediment grain size distributions, and fill calculations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A high resolution subsurface profiling was performed off the west coast of Captiva Island, Florida by Tetra Tech, Inc. and their geophysical subconsultant, Van Reenan International during the period January 21-25, 1980. The purpose of this study was to provide additional data pertaining to the depth and thickness of sediment distribution seaward of Captiva Island with specific emphasis on the evaluation and delineation of marine sand deposits potentially suitable for use as fill material for the proposed Captiva Erosion Prevention District beach nourishment project."--Leaf [1].

Download or read book Saving America's Beaches written by Scott L. Douglass and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells you where beach sand comes from, how waves are formed and how they break and move sand down the coast, how OC works of manOCO have blocked this movement and caused beach erosion, and what can be done to save the beaches for future generations of Americans. A three-part prescription for healthy beaches is proposed: OC backing offOCO, OC bypassing sandOCO, and OC beach nourishmentOCO. So if you love waves and beaches, and care about the future of your favorite beach spot, then read this book while you enjoy the beach."

Download or read book Beach Nourishment Techniques written by Donald L. Durham and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data are presented describing the average wave climate at 10 selected beach nourishment sites on the coastline of the continental United States: Reverse Beach, Mass.; Rockaway Beach, N.Y.; Carolina Beach, N.C.; Nassau County, Fla.; Dade County, Fla.; Treasure Island, Fla.; Panama City, Fla.; Redondo Beach, Calif.; Indiana Dunes, Ind.; and Presque Isle, Pa. The data were derived by calculating the effects of refraction, shoaling, and island sheltering on the deepwater wave climate applicable to each site. Deepwater wave climates were obtained from Synoptic Shipboard Meteorological Observation data tapes and California Department of Navigation and Ocean Development Files. Tables and plots of wave height/period frequency distribution on a monthly, annual, and azimuth of approach basis are presented as a means of summarizing the calculated data. The intent of this report is to provide information that can be used later to evaluate the ability of various offshore dredging systems to perform beach nourishment work. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report contains beach and inlet survey data obtained and provided to DNR (Dept. of Natural Resources) by the City of Clearwater in partial fulfillment of obligations set forth in the DNR permit and funding contract. Beach and offshore profile survey data for Sand Key and portions of Clearwater Beach Island was provided on an annual basis by the City from 1983 to 1987 and is contained in this report. DNR beach and offshore profile surveys from 1974 are also incorporated into this report for comparison purposes. Comparison with the 1974 profiles also documents the influence of construction of the south jetty at Clearwater Pass by the City of Clearwater in 1975 and placement of dredged sand on Sand Key by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1977. Bathymetric surveys of Clearwater Pass were performed periodically from 1979 through 1987, portions of which are plotted and compared in this report. Wave and storm information which had an influential effect on the project area is provided in this report. Shoreline and volumetric change computations and graphics are also contained in this report for analysis purposes.

Download or read book Beach Nourishment and Protection written by Marine Board and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-12-26 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many coastal communities have built structures at their beaches and added quantities of sand in contoured designs to combat erosion. Are such beach nourishment projects technically and economically sound? Or are they nothing more than building sand castles, as critics claim? Beach Nourishment and Protection provides a sound technical basis for decisionmaking, with recommendations regarding the utility of beach nourishment, the appropriate role of federal agencies, responsibility for cost, design methodology, and other issues. This volume Examines the economic and social role of beaches, the history of beach nourishment projects, and management strategies for shore protection. Discusses the role of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies, with a close-up look at the federal flood insurance program. Explores the state of the art in project design and prediction of outcomes, including the controversy over the use of traditional and nontraditional shore protection devices. Addresses what is known about the environmental impacts of beach nourishment. Identifies what outcomes should be targeted for continued monitoring by project officials. Beach Nourishment and Protection provides insight into the technical, economic, environmental, and policy implications of beach nourishment and protection, with examples and suggested research directions.
