text, large number, and easy availability. All of this literature, 

 however, is referenced in the annotated bibliography in correct se- 

 quence, and in the indexes under the appropriate headings. Notation 

 for articles not annotated which appear in the indexes is as follows: 



NA - BEACH EROSION AT SANTA BARBARA CALIFORNIA 3803GR0001 



Special utility of the bibliography lies in its indexes . The 

 author index is an alphabetical listing; the title index is an alpha- 

 betical listing of words taken out of context of the titles. To 

 provide a subject index, key words were chosen; all articles were 

 keyed to this listing. Before using the subject index the researcher 

 should refer to the key-word list (page 199) to choose the subjects 

 of interest. 



In most cases the meanings of the key words are straightforward. 

 However, to clarify any confusion that may result, a list of defini- 

 tions for the key words follows the key word list (page 200) .
