As noted previously, they mostly represent conditions which existed each spring. 9. Outcrops of Organics. Highly compacted organic material, often including silt- and mud-sized inorganic particles, was frequently observed outcropping on Ludlam Beach. These outcrops were usually exposed in the coastal indentation between the southernmost Strathmere groin and the northern part of the Sea Isle City groin system (Fig. 52). An analysis to determine the location of such outcrops was made using aerial photos obtained on 8 March 1962 during the waning stages of the 6 to 8 March storm. This date was selected because the shoreline position analysis indicated the coast had retreated a large amount in a short time as a result of the storm. Thus, the exposure of outcropping organics was probably greatest at that time. Aerial photos taken on other dates exhibited considerably less exposure of organics. 64.
