摘要

A high resolution beach profile change monitoring program was conducted during generally high water in the 1990s at three sites along the eastern shore of Lake Michigan in a variety of coastal geological settings to evaluate an experimental shore protection technology called the Undercurrent Stabilizer System™. Shore protection structures at all three sites produced minimal negative impact at and immediately adjacent to the study sites and generally resulted in significant net accretion of near-shore sediment in and around the structures during the study period compared to control sites. Local complexities and variations in coastal processes and conditions (especially local longshore transport, coastal substrates and geological setting, and other existent engineered structures) play a critical role in the specific performance characteristics of these small (property owner) scale shore protection structures in the Great Lakes region. A fundamental factor in the evaluation of coastal change associated with shore protection on eastern Lake Michigan (as well as many other areas of the Great Lakes) is that net transport of sand is offshore, especially during periods of prolonged high water levels. Maintenance of long-term sediment budgets through input of beach-grade sand is dependent on the erosion of upland (bluff/dune materials) or nourishment. The use of coastal monitoring results for coastal planning, development, and permitting decisions requires careful consideration of several factors: the intent of the monitoring project in terms of spatial scale and time frame of influence of the structures that are monitored and the appropriateness of extrapolating monitoring results to other areas with substantially different coastal setting. Although the overall results of the study indicate that no substantial negative impact occurs within the experimental structure study sites compared to control sites, we believe that the isolation and protection of back-shore coastal sediments from wave action through the use of any shore protection technology will ultimately result in increasing offshore loss of near-shore sand throughout the eastern Lake Michigan coastal system.
