Piankatank River Shoreline Situation Report, Marcia Berman, Harry Berquist, Tamia Rudnicky, Julie Glover
Reports
This shoreline inventory has been developed as a tool for assessing conditions along the tidal shoreline of the river, and tributaries in the Piankatank River Watershed. Recent conditions are reported for three zones within the immediate riparian river area: riparian land use, bank and buffers, and the shoreline. A series of maps and tabular data are published to illustrate and quantify results of an extensive survey in the watershed. This survey extends from the mouth of the Dragon Run to the mouth of the Piankatank River, at the confluence with the Chesapeake Bay. Coverage extends slightly south and east, including …

James City County Shoreline Situation Report 1999, Marcia Berman, Sharon Dewing, Daniel Schatt, Harry Berquist
Reports
This report represents the first attempt to update the earlier Shoreline Situation Reports. It's purpose is to present recent shoreline conditions. and evaluate, where possible, the change in shore condition since previous reports. New information is presented for areas not previously surveyed. Additional attributes have also been added in phase two. Some information, however, was not computed as part of this second reporting phase, and reference to earlier conditions may be presented. For example, revised shoreline erosion and accretion rates were not computed, but knowledge of previous rates may be of interest in some areas. These are included in this …

Gloucester County Shoreline And Tidal Marsh Inventory, Marcia Berman, Harry Berquist, Sharon Dewing, George Thomas, Rose Laird
Gloucester County Shoreline And Tidal Marsh Inventory, Marcia Berman, Harry Berquist, Sharon Dewing, George Thomas, Rose Laird
Reports
This inventory is intended to serve as a useful planning tool for managers, planners, regulators, and environmentalists with an interest in Gloucester County. This report documents conditions measured in the County of Gloucester using remote sensing techniques. Two separate activities have occurred in tandem to develop this inventory of tidal marsh, and shoreline features. First, a delineation of tidal marshes within the county used high end image processing software along with color infra-red imagery to delineate the boundaries oftidal marshes'within 33 georeferenced scenes. The process calculates the amount of tidal marsh measured within each river segment in acres. Second, the …

Summary Of Shoreline Situation Reports For Virginia's Tidewater Localities, Carl H. Hobbs Iii, Dennis W. Owen, Lynne C. Morgan
Summary Of Shoreline Situation Reports For Virginia's Tidewater Localities, Carl H. Hobbs Iii, Dennis W. Owen, Lynne C. Morgan
Reports
This summary report marks the completion of the Shoreline Situation Report project. For over six years project team members with the Department of Geological Oceanography at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science have inventoried over 5,000 miles of shoreline in Tidewater Virginia. The methodology was developed and evaluated with funding through the Chesapeake Research Consortium, Inc. from the Research Applied to National Needs (RANN) program of the National Science Foundation. After preliminary evaluation as to its worth, the project became part of Virginia's Coastal Resources Management Program, supported by the Office of Conmerce and Resources with funds provided by the …
