Book Description
Detailed beach slope and sediment studies have led to the conclusion that the gravel beaches and natural sand beaches of the Norwalk Westport area are in a state of equilibrium with existing wave conditions and sediment supply. In contrast to this, beaches restored by the direct placement of fill disturb the equilibrium conditions and lose almost all traces of their restoration within two or three years. (Author).

Book Description
The Connecticut coast has submerged about 9.7 feet (3 meters) in the last 3500 years and about 27.5 feet (8.4 meters) in the last 8000 years. The submergence rate decreased to half an earlier rate about 3500 years ago, and salt marshes then filled the formerly open bays. Since their formation, the salt marshes have built upward to keep pace with continuing submergence. Vertical accretion on selected Connecticut tidal marshes has ranged between 1 and 16 mm per year between 1962 and 1966. Typical marshes are building upward at about 4 mm per year, which approximates the regional submergence rate for recent decades. Marsh edges have eroded unusually fast in recent decades, but only minor erosion was measured during detailed surveys between 1962 and 1966. (Author).
