Abstract
Scientists in the Washington Department of Ecology (WA beaches), Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (OR beaches), and at Oregon State University (OR/WA nearshore bathymetry) are compiling information on the morphodynamics of beaches along the Pacific Northwest (PNW) coasts of Oregon and Washington in order to document the seasonal, interannual, and long-term changes taking place at multiple beach study sites and at a range of spatial scales . These data are of broad interest to the public ranging from scientists, coastal resource managers, geotechnical consultants and the public-at-large.
