1 3. ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 words) 



This report provides basic data and summaries for the measurements made during 1989 at the 

 US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station (WES) Coastal Engineering Research Center's 

 (CERC's) Field Research Facility (FRF) in Duck, NC. The report includes comparisons of the 

 present year's data with cumulative statistics from 1980 to the present. 



Summarized in this report are meteorological and oceanographic data, monthly bathymetric 

 survey results, samples of quarterly aerial photography, and descriptions of 17 storms that occurred 

 during the year. The year was highlighted by a severe storm in March that destroyed or damaged 

 over 100 ocean front structures. Waves with 4-m significant height were measured 6 km from shore. 



This report is eleventh in a series of annual summaries of data collected at the FRF that began 

 with Miscellaneous Report CERC-82-16, which summarizes data collected during 1977-1979. These 

 reports are available from the WES Technical Report Distribution Section of the Information 

 Technology Laboratory, Vicksburg, MS.
