 recent secular variations. Science 190:981-983. 



This article studies changes in coastal v/ave climates at Cape Hatteras, 

 North Carolina. These changes may account for the observed shoreline 

 erosion along the east coast.

Knowles, C. E., and J. J. Singer. 1977. Exchange through a barrier island 



inlet: additional evidence of upwelling off the northeast coast of North 



Carolina. Journal of Physical Oceanography 7(1) : 146-152 . 



From data collected at Oregon Inlet, North Carolina, in 1973, sequence 

 and relationship of wind and water conditions were noted. This can be 

 explained by wind induced upwelling in the area. The conclusion is that 

 temperature, salinity, and current velocity records in and near a barrier 

 island inlet could furnish much information about mixing processes on 

 the adjacent continental shelf.
