Repetitive surveys of the above MSL beach were made along 20 profile loca- 

 tions on Ludlam Beach, New Jersey, from 1962 to 1972. The surveys provided 

 data on temporal and spatial beach volume change and shoreline position. Storm 

 changes were highly variable, with adjacent profiles often showing opposite 

 trends. Sand volume losses from above MSL, resulting from seven storms, aver- 

 aged 2.3 cubic yards per foot or 80,000 cubic yards per storm. For three of the 

 seven storms the average change in MSL shoreline position suggested accretion
