Profile data are available in a single comma-delimited file and a zip file including multiple .jpg images that show a visual representation of the individual profiles. Purpose: Data were obtained to provide inputs and validation data for a numerical model, and additionally to provide baseline environmental data previously not available. Supplemental_Information: Additional information about the field activities from which these data were derived is available online at: https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=ID411AR https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=L610AK Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.

Standard operating procedures were used to collect all data and measurements are within the expected range Logical_Consistency_Report: No formal logical accuracy tests were conducted. Data has been checked for duplications and omissions. Missing data have been filled with NaN values. Where data were not collected a value of n/a value is used. Completeness_Report: Dataset is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: A formal accuracy assessment of the horizontal positional information in the data set has not been conducted. Point locations along the beach profiles were logged with an Ashtech ZXtreme roving global positioning system (GPS) and post-processed using data collected with a ZXtreme base station on Barter Island. Horizontal accuracy is estimated to be 20 cm. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: A formal accuracy assessment of the vertical positional information in the data set has not been conducted. Point locations along the beach profiles were logged with an Ashtech ZXtreme roving global positioning system (GPS) and post-processed using data collected with a ZXtreme base station on Barter Island. Vertical accuracy is estimated to be 20 cm. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Beach elevation profiles were measured along 29 shore-normal transects on and around Arey and Barter Islands, Alaska in August 2010 and July 2011. Profiles were collected at 14 locations in 2010 and 15 locations in 2011. No data were collected at an AR-12 site. Position information were obtained with two Ashtech ZXtreme roving global positioning system (GPS) units in a backpack configuration. A base station using a third ZXtreme was established on Barter Island for the duration of the field campaigns. Rover data were collected to within 0.20 m accuracy using post-processed measurements from the base station. Process_Date: 20111020 Process_Step: Process_Description: Cumulative distance along the profile transect was calculated from the Easting and Northing coordinates. Approximate mean sea level (Ht_MSL) elevations were calculated by adding an empirically determined 2.3 m to the height above ellipsoid (Ht_Ell) values. Cumulative distance along the profile transect was plotted against Ht_MSL elevations in Microsoft Excel. Profiles exported from Excel were imported into and edited in Adobe Illustrator to identify coincident sediment sample locations and morphological features, for example Berm Crest (BC), Water Line (WL), Lagoon Shoreline (LS). Files were exported to final jpeg format using the naming convention TransecID.jpg. Process_Date: 20111020 Process_Step: Process_Description: Performed minor edits to the metadata to correct typos.
