This report is published to provide coastal engineers with a description of beach erosion and accretion at Virginia Beach, Virginia, including the effect of continuing beach replenishment, and the apparent unimportance of land use in determining erosion. This report also provides benchmark data on coastal processes at the shore north of the CERC Field Research Facility at Duck, North Carolina. The work was carried out under the beach evaluation program of the U.S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center CCERC) The report was prepared by Victor Goldsmith (principal investigator) Susan Sturm, and George Thomas of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), Gloucester Point, Virginia, under CERC Contract No. DACW72-74-C-0008. Work under this contract is also reported in Applied Science and Ocean Engineering No. 122 of VIMS.
