For centuries it has been eroded by the sea and is expected to have disappeared at the turn of this century. Since 1972 the authors have carried out investigations of erosion and accumulation on the island. In this paper a brief statement of the morphological development of the island is given for the period 1976-88. Furthermore, the development of two adjacent morphological elements, the high-sand and the erosion basin, is described. | | >> download as pdf |
