Acknowledgments

The authors thank Jeff Krause of Dauphin Island Sea Lab at the State of Alabama Marine Science Institution for his technical assistance at the lab and for sharing the lab and storage space. The mayor and property owners of Dauphin Island graciously allowed us to install our sensors on their property; this project could not have been completed without their generous assistance. The work detailed in this report was part of the Barrier Island Evolution Research Project of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The authors thank the following USGS staff for their assistance: Joe Long and Soupy Dalyander for help with site selection and sensor installation; Kristy Guy for preparing the visually appealing site maps; and B.J. Reynolds for assistance recovering gear and surveying the sensor elevations.
