APPENDIX A: SUMMARY OF SHORELINE CHANGE DATA PER SEGMENT 



Column Legend 



MAP = number identifying one map within the. enclosed set of National 

 Ocean Service (NOS) maps. Refer to Figure 18. 



SEGMENT = number identifying a small stretch of coastline within a 

 particular map. Segment numbers are listed on Figure 22. 



A T MOVE = average total (net) movement; within each segment of each 

 map, data were collected along shore -perpendicular transects located 50 m 

 apart along the coastline. Total net shoreline movement for each transect was 

 used to calculate the average total (net) movement for the segment. Units = 

 metres, "-" = erosion. 



M T MOVE = maximum total (net) movement; within each segment of each 

 map, data were collected along shore -perpendicular transects located 50 m 

 apart along the coastline. Net shoreline change at the transect with maximum 

 movement within the segment is listed in this column. Units = metres, "-" = 

 erosion. 



A SH CHG = average shoreline change; the average total (net) movement 

 for all transects within a segment, divided by the number of years between the 

 first and last shoreline data set. Units = metres/year, "-" = erosion. 



M STD DEV = maximum standard deviation; standard deviation of shoreline 

 change for the transect within a segment showing maximum variability in 

 shoreline position over the measured interval of time. Units are in ± metres 

 around the average shoreline change of that transect. These data are intended 

 to give the reader a rough indication of just how variable the long-term 

 shoreline change can be within a given segment of coastline. 



NUMBER OF TRANSECTS ERODING . STABLE . AND ACCRETING = within each segment 

 of each map, shoreline change data were collected along shore -perpendicular 

 transects located 50 m apart along the coastline. Within a segment, the 

 number of transects eroding (>1 m/year landward movement) , accreting (>1 

 m/year seaward movement), and/or stable (<1 m/year movement) were totaled. 

 These data can be used to calculate the percentage of each segment within each 

 of the three shoreline change categories. 



REACH = the entire study coastline was divided into seven zones 

 (reaches) of similar geomorphic characteristics. Refer to Figure 21.
