Coast of California Storm and Tidal Waves Study. Nearshore Bathymetric Survey Report, San Diego Region.
Abstract
The purpose of report is to present the results of byathymetric surveys of the nearshore region to a depth of 6 meters relative to mean lower low water (MLLW) at approximately one hundred (100) selected profile stations between Dana Point and the United States/Mexican border. Sediment sampling and measurement of offshore survey stakes/reference rods) at specified ranges and depths were also conducted ot complement these nearshore bathymetric surveys. The first nearshore bathymetric survey report (CCSTWS, 84-2, April 1984) discussed in detail the surveying techniques and methodologies used to accomplish the goals of this study and provided nearshore profile, sediment sample and reference rod data for Survey 1 (October 1983 to January 1984). This report will supplement and supersede Survey Report no. 1 by providing an updated discussion on profiler system modifications, correcting euoneous survey and sediment sample data entries for Survey No. 1 and provide all additional survey and sediment sample data for Survey 2 (February, 1984- July, 1984) and Survey 3 (October, 1984 - February 1985). All reference rod data resummarized and tabulated and unit volume change report because of suspect data points in the offshore region due to the cable design at that time. It is recommended that Survey 1 Data not be used as the baseline survey until a larger survey data base is obtained for comparative analysis. (Author)
