82 Years of Beach Erosion - Time Lapse

Location: Old Lyme, CT coastal wetlands, 1934-2016. (Note to teachers: this video is NOT designed for use in elementary-age instruction or similar settings).

Photo #timelapse of #erosion with original music. Aerial view of re-shaping and land loss (with some deposition also visible) on the shoreline, beaches, and tidal salt marshes near the mouth of the Connecticut River at its juncture with the Long Island Sound. Local seaside landmarks affected include Griswold Point, the Black Hall River, Griswold Cove, White Sands beach, and Great Island (including Poverty Point). The video shows the levels of environmental impacts from multiple hurricanes, tropical storms, and other natural weather-related events to which the regional climate is susceptible and which accelerate the process, including the 1938 hurricane, Hurricane Carol, Hurricane Gloria, Hurricane Bob, Hurricane Irene, and Hurricane Sandy. Music: excerpt from "Belongings" for solo piano (audio: all rights reserved).
