Part 3 beach erosion hurricane harvey left its mark on much of the texas coast, leaving at least s100 billion in damages, and it very likely worsened a problem that has been plaguing the coast for years- beach crosion. the extent of the beach erosion along the coast is still being determined, but we can g these simulated data represent the typical effects of a hurricane on a coastal area. distance seaward elevation relative to from benchmark et an idea of the effects of hurricane landfall on beach erosion by looking at the data below. distance seaward elevation relative to from benchmark sea level sea level 4.8 5.0 10 20 30 40 60 80 4.6 20 30 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 4.4 4.9 3.2 2.2 0.5 0.0 100 120 140 160 180 200 2.5 1.5 0.7 0.3 0.0 1.9 1.2 180 -3.4 3.6 200 -2.0 table 3a. pre-storm shoreline survey of noname beach. table 3b. post-storm shoreline survey o noname beach. a beach profile survey was conducted prior to the landfall of a hurricane called zeke. these (table 3a) show the beach elevation (relative to mean sea level) versus the distance offshore relative to a starting point "benchmark". plot these pre-storm data in table 3a on the graph on the following page using a colored pe now, plot the "post-hurricane' beach profile survey data in table3 different color pencil. i1. what effect did the hurricane have on the position of the shoreline and the profile of th beach? where was sand eroded from, and to where was this eroded sand moved?
