    Description: This is the first of a pair of reports documenting the effects of storms on barrier island systems.The present report (Volume 1) investigates storm effects on natural island conditions whereasVolume 2 addresses the effects of seawalls. With the aim of simulating the effects of overwashon barrier islands and characterizing their response, a series of nine experiments was conductedat the Coastal Engineering Laboratory of the University of Florida. The barrier island wassimulated by a 400 feet wide (prototype units) horizontal crest and an initially planar (1:19)beach. The effects of various storm surge levels and accompanying overtopping were investigated.Experiments were conducted with both regular and irregular storm waves. Regularwaves without overtopping caused the formation of a substantial berm in the swash zone and aprominent longshore bar offshore. Increasing degrees of overtopping resulted in substantial lossof sand from the barrier island system. The longshore bar was considerably more subtle for thehighest water level tested (11.5 ft. above mean sea level). Simulation of a storm-surge hydrographwith rising and falling water levels indicated that the presence of the bar tends to occuronly during a relatively steady or slowly changing water level. The experiments with irregularwaves were conducted with reasonably similar wave heights and carrier periods as those withregular waves. The major difference was in the characteristics of the longshore bar response. Incomparison with cases with regular waves, the bar was less distinct without overtopping, subtlewith minimal overtopping and absent in cases with substantial overtopping. These experimentsseem to indicate that offshore bars are simply break-point bars which require a fairly steadybreak-point and undertow (return of mass transport) for optimal formation.

    Description: This is the second of a pair of reports documenting the effects of storms on beach systemsincluding the presence of seawalls. With the aim of simulating the effects of overwash onbarrier islands with seawalls and characterizing their response, a series of eight experimentswas conducted at the Coastal Engineering Laboratory of the University of Florida. The barrierisland was simulated by a 400 feet wide horizontal crest and an initially uniform mildly-sloped(1:19) beach. The effects of positioning the seawall at two different locations as well as the effectsof various storm surge levels and accompanying overtopping were investigated. Experimentswere conducted with both regular and irregular storm waves. With the seawall located at theslope break between the crest and the sloping beach of the barrier island, and the crest of theseawall just submerged in sand, the effects on the sediment transport process were found to beminimal. For the same position of the seawall but with the crest of the seawall raised above thesurrounding ground level, overtopping caused washover of sand indicating substantial transportin suspension. Increased levels of overtopping tended to accentuate bed profile changes butsupress bar formation (as did irregular waves). Positioning the seawall at the Mean Sea Levelshoreline caused significant scour both immediately landward as well as immediately seawardof the seawall. A prominent scour trough developed further seaward. The longshore bar washighly three-dimensional. It appears that seawalls need to be located adequately landward of theshoreline to discharge their function effectively without adverse effect to the beach. In addition,concerns for safety warrant the presence of an adequate buffer-zone between the seawall andthe upland property. (61 pp.)

    Description: This report responds to the 1986 Beaches Bill which, in recognition of thepotential deleterious impact on Florida's beaches of inlets modified for navigation,mandated a study of those inlets with identification of recommended action to reducethe impacts. This report addresses west Coast inlets; East Coast inlets are thesubject of a companion report.There are 37 inlets along that portion of Florida's West Coast commencing fromPensacola Bay Entrance to Caxambas Pass at the south end of Marco Island. Compared tothose on the East Coast, most West Coast inlets have not had the deleterious effectson the adjacent beaches, yet all modified inlets without proper management have thepotential of impacting unfavorably on the adjacent shorelines. Moreover, at presentthere is interest in opening three West Coast entrances which either have been openin the past (Midnight Pass) or which have opened occasionally (Navarre Pass andEntrance to Phillips Lake).A review of inlets in their natural condition demonstrates the presence of ashallow broad outer bar across which the longshore transport Occurs. These shallowand shifting bar features were unsuitable for navigation which in many cases has ledto the deepening of the channels and fixing with one or two jetty structures. Inlets in this modified state along with inappropriate maintenance practices have thepotential of placing great ero$ional stress along the adjacent beaches. Moreover.channel dredging can reduce wave sheltering of the shoreline by ebb tidal shoals andalter the equilibrium of the affected shoreline segments. The ultimate in poor sandmanagement practice is the placement of good quality beach sand in water depths toogreat for the sand to reenter the longshore system under natural forces; depths of 12ft. or less are considered appropriate for Florida in order to maintain the sand inthe system.With the interference of the nearshore sediment transport processes by inletsmodified for navigation, if the adjacent beaches are to be stabilized there must bean active monitoring program with commitment to placement of dredged material ofbeach quality on shoreline segments of documented need. Several East Coast inletshave such transfer facilities; however. the quantities of sand transferred should beincreased. Although an evolution and improvement in the technical capability tomanage sand resources in the vicinity of inlets is expected, an adequate capabilityexists today and a concerted program should be made to commence a scheduledimplementation of this capability at those entrances causing greatest erosionalstress on the adjacent shorelines.A brief summary review for each of the 37 West Coast inlets is presentedincluding: a scaled aerial photograph, brief historical information, several itemsrelated to sediment losses at each inlet and special characteristics relevant toState responsibilities. For each inlet, where appropriate, the above infor~tion isutilized to develop a recommenced action. (PDF has 101 pages.)

    Description: The framework of sediment budget concepts provides a formalized procedureto account for the various components of sediment flux and the changes ofvolume that occur within a given region. Sediment budget methodology can beuseful in a number of coastal engineering and research applications,including: inferring the amount of onshore sediment transport for a nearshoresystem that contains an "excess of sediment", determining sediment deficits todowndrift beaches as a result of engineering works at navigational entrances,evaluating the performance of a beach nourishment project, inferring thedistribution of longshore sediment transport across the surf zone, etc.This chapter reviews briefly the governing equations for sediment budgetcalculations, considers various measurement and other bases for determiningthe sediment flux components necessary to apply the sediment budget conceptand finally for illustration purposes, applies the sediment budget concept toseveral examples.
