Dune erosion models and swash zone kinematics from remote video observations

Creator:: Palmsten, Margaret L.
Abstract:: The subaerial beach, composed of sand dunes and the foreshore, provides a natural buffer zone between vulnerable land and the dissipation of storm wave energy due to wave breaking. The natural beauty of this region is attractive to people, and as a result, significant investment has been placed in this...

Beach Dune Subsurface Hydrodynamics and the Formation of Dune Scarps

Creator:: Bond, Hailey G.
Abstract:: The formation of beach scarps is a challenging morphodynamic phenomenon that the coastal community has yet to capture in coastal change models. Understanding scarp formation is crucial to accurately predicting coastal erosion and vulnerability during extreme events, as models without parameters for scarp formation and development severely underpredict total erosion...

Succession and certain adaptive features of plants native to the sand dunes of the Oregon coast

Creator:: Kumler, Marion Lawrence, 1941-
Abstract:: The vegetation of the Oregon coast is characterized by a variety of stages of plant succession which are repeated widely throughout the sand dune area. During the years from 1960 to 1963 the gradation of upland sand dune succession was studied on 48 plots within a 150 mile section of...

Contributions to the plant ecology of the Oregon coastal sand dunes

Creator:: Wiedemann, Alfred M.
Abstract:: Sand dunes are found along the coasts of most of the large land masses of the world. Because of their proximity to man and his activities, the maritime sand dunes of Europe, particularly Germany, France, Holland and Scandinavia, have the longest history of stabilization activities and botanical investigation. There are...

Developmental history of European beachgrass (Ammophila arenaria (L.) Link) plantings on the Oregon coastal sand dunes

Creator:: Green, Diantha Louise
Abstract:: A study of Ammophila, a,renaria (L. ) Link, (European beachgrass) plantations was carried out on sand dunes along the Oregon coast to observe the vegetation changes which occur over a period of years. Control of moving sand has been important on a world-wide basis for many years. In Oregon this...

Creator:: Oregon. Dept. of Geology and Mineral Industries and Lund, Ernest H.
Abstract:: This study is concerned with the post-Ice Age (Holocene) dunes in the coast segment between Coos Bay on the south and Sea Lion Point on the north. This is the longest strip of dunes along the Oregon coast and extends for a distance of about 55 miles. It is divided...

Quantifying the Relative Role of the Key Drivers of Coastal Dune Evolution: Observations and Simulations Across a Range of Time and Space Scales in Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina

Creator:: Hovenga, Paige A.
Abstract:: Coastal dunes provide a diverse set of ecosystem services including coastal protection against destructive surge and waves during storm events. Dunes are constantly evolving through various stages of response to storm events and post-storm recovery at rates that vary due to a range of drivers including pre-existing morphology, environmental forcing...

Coastal sand dunes of Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Cooper, William Skinner, 1884-
Abstract:: In Part I the environment of the coastal dunes of Oregon and Washington is analyzed. Most of the substratum is a narrow foreland or terrace, in part submerged, that borders the mountain front. Temperature is relatively low in summer and rarely reaches the freezing point in winter. Winter precipitation is...
