photos showed that many of the coastal charts were made obsolete by the storm. Photos 

 were used to produce chartlets to show mariners the major changes caused by the storm. 

 Chartlets were to be used until all regular charts could be revised. Color photos were 

 concluded to be very useful in investigating storm damage and changes along coastlines.

 Paper discusses results of a photo study of the coastline near Negombo Beach, Ceylon. 

 Objectives were to gather information on the stages of coastal development, to classify the 

 type of shoreline, and to make preUminary determinations of the best shoreUne protection 

 method. Difficulty was encountered in selecting the protection methods from photo 

 interpretation without field observations. However, information from the photos is valuable 

 in guiding future field surveys. Study is based on an examination of 10 photos at a scale of 

 1:40,000.

 Keywords: Aerial Photographs, Storm Effects, Coastal Changes, Eastern United States 



A well-illustrated, nontechnical, review of the severe damage caused by the March-1962 

 storm along the coast of Eastern United States is presented. Photos show before-and-after 

 conditions of beaches and resorts from Long Island to Cape Hatteras. An excellent color 

 oblique photo of the breakthrough (inlet) on Hatteras Island is shown. Many examples of 

 storm damage to structures and natural coastal features are included.

Thesis investigates effects of hurricanes on coastal features, primarily in North Carohna, as 

 depicted on photos. Effects of hurricanes and other storms on Cape Hatteras, Hatteras 

 Island, Hatteras Inlet, Ocracoke Island, Cape Lookout, Cape Fear, and Corncake Inlet and 

 vicinity were determined from periodic photos taken between 1958 and 1962 and from 

 topographic maps. The effects of Hurricane Helene in 1958 were determined by comparing 

 photos taken after the storm with older topographic maps. The effects of the storm of 

 March 1962 were determined by comparing before-and-after photos. Although some 

 measurements were made on the photos, the coastal changes were described primarily in 

 qualitative terms. A discussion of the meteorology of hurricanes and the factors upon which 

 the hurricane damage depends is included. An appendix describes changes in La Costa 

 Island, Florida from periodic photos.
