Beach morphology.
Comments
Details of location of samples not given. Trades were blowing from the ENE at 20-30 knots, with gusts to 40, and had been for several days. Some scarping present as a result. Between 7 and 8 pm (moderate to high tides; moderate fetch waves), four locations along Lanikai were sampled at 2 regions of the beachface. In most cases, samples labeled #1 are the upper 5-6 cm of sand collected ~0.5 m makai of the vegetation line; #2 is the upper 4 cm collected from the high swash area. The swash was a bit steeper than usual, so samples were taken rather high on it rather than at mid-swash.
