Description
Summary:A variety of empirical and modeling approaches are being taken to assess the history and risk of erosion and flooding along the Chukchi Sea coast near Barrow, Alaska. Part of a broad assessment of climate impacts for the North Slope (nome.colorado.edu/HARC), this study utilizes softcopy photogrammetry and GIS to quantify coastal erosion over the last five decades. Barrow was also established as a key site with the Arctic Coastal Dynamics (ACD) program
