View looking west along Virginia's barrier-island shore

Detailed Description

View looking west along Virginia's barrier-island shore. A higher dune ridge on the left (south) side of this scene suffered erosion, but no overwash. To the right (north), lower dunes were eroded and sand was transported inland as overwash. The yellow arrow in each image points to the same feature.
