Camera set-up on Barter Island coastal bluffs
![A coastal cliff is covered in grasses and some snow, and chunks of the cliff are beginning to crack and fall into the ocean.](https://d9-wret.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/assets/palladium/production/s3fs-public/styles/full_width/public/thumbnails/image/BarterIs_20180707_201213.jpg?itok=24v_svhL)
Detailed Description
For a short study period, two video cameras overlooked the coast from atop the coastal bluff of Barter Island in northern Alaska. The purpose was to observe and quantify coastal processes such as wave run-up, development of rip channels, bluff erosion, and movement of sandbars and ice floes. The cameras and the pole they're mounted to can be seen atop the bluff.
