These data have been compiled from pre-existing data sets . . . for the purposes of predicting possible beach erosion from potential future sea level rise (SLR) . . . The five data tables include Heavy-mineral tracers (Table 1), Heavy-mineral data (normalized) (Table 2), Subcell beach profile settings (Table 3), Subcell beach profile parameters (Table 4), and Subcell shelf profile parameters (Table 5){\textquotedblright} (p.1).

	note = {This report consists of two sections, one on the impact of climate change and its associated sea level rise on Oregon{\textquoteright}s beaches, and another on the impact on Oregon tidelands and estuaries. {\textquotedblleft}Two background sections on the expected impacts from predicted sea level rise on the Oregon coast were prepared for Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition{\textquoteright}s {\textquoteleft}Coastal Climate Change Adaptation Project . . . . The two sections are developed for broad distribution to coastal residents, community leaders, government agencies, and other interested parties. The two non-technical sections use geometric or gradient change approaches to illustrate potential impacts of shoreline retreat and tideland submergence under conditions of accelerated global sea level rise, as predicted for the next century or two.{\textquotedblright} (from the Introduction)},
