Like ocean beaches, sheltered coastal areas experience land loss from erosion and sea level rise. In response, property owners often install hard structures such as bulkheads as a way to prevent further erosion, but these structures cause changes in the coastal environment that alter landscapes, reduce public access and recreational opportunities, diminish natural habitats, and harm species that depend on these habitats for shelter and food. Mitigating Shore Erosion Along Sheltered Coasts recommends coastal planning efforts and permitting policies to encourage landowners to use erosion control alternatives that help retain the natural features of coastal shorelines.

Excerpt from Base Map Analysis of Coastal Changes Using Aerial Photography This report describes a technique to quantify changes in shoreline position using time - sequence aerial photos. Aerial photos, which are usually available more often than repetitive ground surveys, may be the only source of past shore line change data. The technique was developed during a sediment budget study conducted for the u.s. Army Engineer District, Philadelphia.
