New Bulletin Available From Woods Hole Sea Grant & Cape
Cod Cooperative Extension:
The Effect of Sea Level Rise on the Barrier Beaches of Cape Cod,
Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket

The dynamic nature of barrier beaches protect landward areas
providing a buffer to storm waves and storm surge. Barrier
beaches are also some of the locations most favored by locals and
tourists alike and bring significant income to the economy.
Although barrier beaches may seem relatively stable, they are
constantly changing. Some people may wonder if barrier beaches
can survive the effects of sea level rise, or will simply
disappear.

This new bulletin from Woods Hole Sea Grant and the Cape Cod
Cooperative Extension, “The Effect of Sea Level Rise on the
Barrier Beaches of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket”, ( http://web.whoi.edu/seagrant/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/01/Sea-Level-Rise-Bulletin-FINAL-1-11-2016.pdf ) describes how barrier beaches are formed and how they respond
to the forces of sea level rise, tides and storm events. This
understanding will help us to know what barrier beaches might
look like in years to come and whether there are steps we can
take now to preserve barrier beaches.

Free hard copies are currently available and can be ordered by
emailing seagrant at whoi.edu. ( sergeant at whoi.edu )The bulletin is
also available as a .pdf at www.whoi.edu/seagrant ( http://www.who.edu/seagrant )or www.capecodextension.org ( http://www.capecodextension.org )
