Shoreline changes due to jetty construction on the Oregon Coast

Creator:

Lizarraga Arciniega, Jose Roman

Abstract:

Patterns of beach erosion and accretion due to jetty construction are examined for the coast of Oregon. All jetty systems are included with the exception of those on the Columbia River, making a total of nine systems. All evidence indicates that these areas of the Oregon coast are experiencing a...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jose Roman Lizarraga Arciniega for
Shoreline response to jetty extension and natural forcing events at Siuslaw Bay, Oregon 1981-1990

Creator:

Carstarphen, Camela A.

Abstract:

This paper investigated observed morphologic changes in sand accretion and erosion due to sedimentary processes at the jetty entrance to the Siuslaw River near Florence, Oregon. Ten years of data on morphologic change in sand and sediment distribution, collected semiannually between 1981-1990, was used to analyze the nearshore sedimentation processes...

Beach profile changes and onshore-offshore sand transport on the Oregon coast

Creator:

Aguilar Tunon, Nicolas A.

Abstract:

Two beaches with significant differences in grain size and thus in beach profile morphology and response to wave conditions were studied on the Oregon coast. Gleneden Beach, just south of Siletz Spit and Lincoln City, has a median grain size of 0.36 mm (medium sand) and a steep beach face...
