Data Series 979
| Thriteen cross-shore profiles were flown in this location to allow documentation of two barrier island breaches. One breach occured at the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) ranger station (denoted with an *) and the other was at the north end of Rodanthe, North Carolina. The complex flight path at this location has been broken into four insets, A, B, C, and D, chronologically. The four insets break the flight into more visibly understandable time sections and allow the user to see the complex flight path. The purple and yellow colored lines correspond to 5-minute flight segments delineate the flight path in each inset, and the dashed gray line illustrates the rest of the flight path shown in other insets in this figure. Small numbers located near the arrows help the user follow the flight path along its course. |
