The South Carolina Coast I. Natural Processes and Erosion
The heart of South Carolina's beach erosion problem in South Carolina lies along those 26 miles of beach which are developed and are apparently experiencing more rapid erosion....
The South Carolina Coast II. Development and Beach Management
The variety of development and conservation areas is superimposed on a wide range of erosion and accretion histories. Lack of construction setbacks has contributed to the general but probably...
A Review of the South Carolina Method for Establishing Coastal Setback Lines
The location of the setback line will depend to a large extent on the nature of the shoreline. Those areas adjacent to an unstabilized tidal inlet and affected by coastal processes at...
Dredge Disposal Monitoring by Fourier Shape Analysis
Fourier grain-shape analysis characterizes a population of sediments in terms of the shapes of the grains. The technique of grain-shape analysis has been successfully applied to the area...
Coastal Processes and Management Issues on Folly Island, SC: 1850-1988

Gamma Exposure from Rn Progeny in GAC Units
An investigation into the gamma exposure rate generated by granular activated carbon (GAC) water treatment units focused on ten sites that covered a range of source radon (Rn) in water...
Ozonation of a Biorefractory Organic Compound
This study involved determination of the degradation of chlorendic acid due to ozonation, possible biodegradation of the resultant products, and possible toxicity of the resultant products....
Using Borosilicate Glass as a HLW Storage Medium
There is growing concern over the quality of present high level waste management techniques. Instances of nuclear accidents and contamination at nuclear waste sites in the United States...
Mass Balance Analysis of Decomposed Refuse in Laboratory Scale Lysimeters
Decomposition of shredded municipal refuse was studied under laboratory conditions with leachate recycle and neutralization. Cellulose and hemicellulose accounted for 91% of the methane...
