A o March 1962. o North Shore Change X South Shore Change A Total Change XX X 1949 1955 1960 1965 1970 1974 Date Figure 62.

Fixed manmade structures such as roads, parking lots, and buildings were also jeopardized. 2. Alongshore Sand Movement. a. Longshore Transport Analysis. The following analysis utilizes wave height data (averaged by month) and a constant wave period obtained from a gage in Atlantic City (Fig. 15), and wave direction data from visual observations near Sea Isle City (Fig. 17). These data were applied in an analysis using the energy flux method ( Army, Corps of Engineers, Coastal Engineering Research Center, 1977). Wave power, P, reaching the beach (see Fig. 8) was obtained using the equation Y CtgH2 (2) 74.
