  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Satellite derived shorelines are extracted using the Google Earth Engine API for Landsat and Sentinel satellites from 1984 through 2018. These shorelines are evaluated against existing surveys and show satellite-derived breach shorelines are in good agreement with directly-observed shorelines and capture the trend of the Fire Island wilderness breach evolution. Results of this study show the wilderness breach resulted in down drift shoreline erosion at a rate greater than the historical average within 4 km of the breach. This study demonstrates the benefits of utilizing satellite observations for monitoring the full extent of breach development and resulting shoreline changes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
