seaward side. Study is based on an evaluation of comparative photos of the Core Banks area 

 in North Carolina. Photos illustrate storm-produced tidal inlets and washover fans.

Capabihties and Hmitations of photos in measuring beach erosion is presented. Character- 

 istics of the dune Une, high water hne, and the waterhne for measuring beach erosion on 

 photos are described and problems associated with each Hne are discussed. Techniques used 

 by the Wilmington District Office to compare periodic photos to monitor beach erosion of 

 the North Carolina Coast are described. Plans for comparing the photo survey with field 

 survey measurements are described. Discussed are the common problems in measuring 

 coastal change on photos. The best conditions for taking photos for erosion surveys are 

 noted. Potentials of black and white infrared film to deUneate the waterhne are discussed. 

 Precautions to be observed if the photo survey is to produce accurate short-term beach 

 erosion data are given.

 An English translation of a report by a Swedish scientist assigned the responsibility for 

 coastal morphology research at Surtsey Island, Iceland, formed by volcanic action during 

 November 1963 to June 1967. Because of the dynamic nature of the island building process, 

 high wave energy, depth conditions, and material characteristics that promote rapid 

 development, this was an excellent location for coastal morphology studies. Coastal changes, 

 primarily rapid erosion, are described. Several photos illustrate island features. Report states 

 photos are continually used to monitor retreat of the coastal cliffs and that a topographic 

 map is being prepared by photogrammetry. The text refers to a report by Professor S. 

 Thorarinsson of Reykjavik, Iceland, which describes the development of Surtsey Island 

 coastline from photos, although complete reference to the report is not given.
