Northwest Florida and southeast Alabama: Historic shoreline stability during a period of relative sea level rise..
Evidence supporting a stable coastline during a period of relative sea level rise is presented for the northwestern Florida coast and southeastern Alabama coast. Historic records of sea level fluctuations, obtained from the National Ocean Service tide gauge at Pensacola, indicate a rate of relative sea level rise averaging 2.4 mm/year from 1924 to 1986. When compared with the six remaining NOS tide gauges in Florida, Pensacola shows the highest rate of rise over the entire period of record available for each gauge. Historic shoreline trends since the mid-1800's demonstrate that the vast majority of the 225-km stretch of coast from Destin, Florida to Morgan Point, Alabama has maintained stability and is progradational in places. These findings may have important implications for long-range planning along the northwestern Florida and the Alabama coastlines, particularly in prior planning for future sea level rise.

Jack-up pontoon barge for vibracoring in shallow water..
Journal of Sedimentary Petrology 62(4): 739-740.
Research currently undertaken by personnel in the Institute For Coastal and Estuarine Research at the University of West Florida involves the determination of heavy metals in late-Quaternary, subsurface-bay and estuarine sediments. Water depths from which the subsurface material is to be extracted varies from less than 0.5 to 5 m. Thus, an inexpensive barge has been designed and equipped to facilitate vibracore extraction from a series of shallow-water environments in Northwest Florida for subsequent geochemical analyses. The barge is somewhat similar to that of Hoyt and Demarest (1981) in that it is a twin-hull construction; however, significant modifications have been made to the ICER barge, including the addition of jack-up stabilizing spuds. In addition, the entire vessel has been outfitted for vibracoring operations at a significantly lower price.
