. Coastal changes, eastern Lake Michigan, 1970-1973. Beach erosion; Littoral drift. PREFACE This report is published to provide coastal engineers with bluff erosion data related to water level, storm occurrence, and bluff composi- tion, useful for anticipating future effects from high water levels. The report summarizes the results of a 3-year reconnaissance study of bluff erosion, during high water levels, along a 250-mile segment of the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. Selected data from the first 2 years of this study were published in MP 10-75 by Davis, Fingleton, and Pritchett (1975). The

The report summarizes the results of a 3-year reconnaissance study of bluff erosion, during high water levels, along a 250-mile segment of the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. Selected data from the first 2 years of this study were published in MP 10-75 by Davis, Fingleton, and Pritchett (1975). The work was carried out under the coastal processes program of the Army Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC). Professor Richard A. Davis, Jr., Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, Michigan, was the principal investigator of the work done under CERC Contract Nos. DACW72-70-C-0037 and DACW72-73-C-0003. The report was prepared under the direction of Dr. Galvin, Jr., Chief, Coastal Processes Branch, Research Division. Dr. Craig H. Everts, Oceanographer, Coastal Processes Branch, was the CERC contract monitor. Comments on this publication are invited.
