Purpose
|
Re-profile beach profiles that were initially established in the early 1960's
|
and establish new profile baselines for monitoring and quantification of
|
shoreline changes during the passage of extreme events on the islands of
|
Oahu and Maui. The profile data will also be used to quantify results of
|
historical shoreline changes using aerial photographs.
|
|
Summary
|
27 coastal sites on Oahu that were established in the summer of 1994 were
|
re-profiled and GPS positions were recorded. 20 new profile sites were
|
established on Maui and data collected included: beach profiles, offshore
|
fathometer profiles where accessible, GPS location of site reference marks,
|
and a minimum of 3 surface sediment samples per site.
