This chronolog is intended to monitor erosion of the coastal bluff and provide information about other beach processes. Coastal bluff erosion here could threaten beach access and campground infrastructure, and images from the chronology can inform management decisions. Additionally, these photos could provide new insights about processes like the movement of large logs on the beach that may be linked to a variety of ecological services.
