the value calculated by the critical ratio technique and the actual 

 measured loss from one profile. Granulometric data were not available 

 for the 1970 Carolina beach fill. 



With only data from two beach fills, a relationship between the 

 exponential decay constant k and granulometric properties of the beach 

 fills was not investigated.
