Purpose
|
|
To obtain baseline measurements and support research contributing to the
|
|
development of a predictive model of Arctic bluff retreat and inundation of
|
|
barrier islands due to the a changing global climate on the North Slope of
|
|
Alaska.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Waves, currents, bathymetry, sediment and bluff characteristics, suspended sediment flux, salinity and temperature, and beach and bluff topography.

Shop time includes the design and construction of bottom mounts specifically
|
|
designed for the North Slope. Deployment of Trawl Resistant Bottom Mount
|
|
deployed Aug. 10-25. TRBM to be recovered Sept. 22-25, 2009
|
|
Platforms used: Two vessels, ATVs, and by foot.
|
|
Deployment, recovery of bottom-mounted instruments, and collection of data pertaining to bathymetry, sediments, and bluff characteristics.
|
|
Study of Arctic bluff retreat and inundation of an ecologically sensitive barrier island
|
|
system due to a changing global climate.
