1. Shoreface-connected ridges intersect the ocean coast at four 

 places. In each location, the shoreline north of the ridge 

 intersection retreated, while the shoreline prograded south of 

 the intersection. The ridge intersections are about 5 km south 

 of the most prominent concave shore reaches (Figure 55) away 

 from inlets. At and south of the ridge intersections, the 

 shoreline changes rapidly from a northwesterly to a northerly 

 orientation. 



m. Characteristics of the shoreface-connected ridges are not 



dependent upon the net alongshore sediment transport direction. 

 The False Cape Shoal is near a transport reversal; other ridges 

 are located in areas where the net transport is to the south.
