20. ABSTRACT (Continue on reverse side If necessary and Identify by block number) 



The extent of wave damage to shores is difficult to predict; it is 

 advisable to observe the behavior of the shore to determine if some protective 

 action is required. After installation of a shore protection structure it is 

 important to continue monitoring shore behavior; and also to inspect for 

 structural changes to determine if the structure is functioning as designed. 

 Optimum and minimum plans for recording shoreline changes and monitoring groins, 

 seawalls, revetments, and offshore breakwaters are given. Simple shore erosion 

 computations and a data analysis program are presented.
