Barrier Islands
• These barrier islands face the open ocean so they receive the full force of major storms that strike the coast.
• Storm waves that previously rushed harmlessly through gaps between the dunes now encounter buildings and roadways.

Jetties
• Jetties are usually built in pairs and extend into the ocean at the entrances to rivers and harbors. By confining the flow of water, the jetties prevent deposition in the harbor channel.

North Carolina's Outer Banks
Humans remove any new sand piled up on their property. Normal bar migrations thwarted and barrier narrows.

EstuariesAn estuary is a semi-enclosed coastal body of water with one or more rivers or streams flowing into it and with a free connection to the open sea
