Where overwash occurred, cubic yards per foot of sediment was moved landward from the beach, in some places more than 1,000 feet. determine the persistence, orientation, distance from shore to the bars, and approach direction of waves breaking on the bars. The photos provided only a two-dimensional view of the bars because of the general inability to penetrate the water surface. In some instances bar presence and characteristics were inferred from the breaking wave pattern. The major value of the aerial photos was in qualitatively determining the variation in bar characteristics along the coast, rather than in establishing the magnitude of various bar parameters. Figure 47 shows the orientation of submarine bars during three aerial photo missions (1959, 1962, and 1968) in the months of March and April when the bars were well pronounced. The figure also shows that submarine bars generally trend at a slight angle to the coast, becoming more distant in a southerly direction. Since most of the analyzed aerial photo sets were taken in the late winter and spring (Table 5), the presence of bars in the sample of 20 photo sets is probably greater than the yearly average. 60.
