Geology Faculty Datasets

This document contains five data tables in PDF file formats, that are used to characterize littoral subcell (beach, river mouth, and inner-shelf) conditions in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) region (Washington, Oregon, and Northern California). These data have been compiled from pre-existing data sets (see citations in Table notes and References, below) for the purposes of predicting possible beach erosion from potential future sea level rise (SLR), as introduced in Kingen (2018) and Peterson et al. (2019, 2020a,b). The five data tables include Heavy-mineral tracers (Table 1), Heavy-mineral data (normalized) (Table 2), Subcell beach profile settings (Table 3), Subcell beach profile …
