1 Geological record of severe storm impacts along the Texas Coast Davin Wallace 1, John Anderson 1, Winnie Yu 1 and Antonio Rodriguez 2 1 2
2 Motivation Understand natural evolution of stressed barrier island systems from storm impacts Aide in coastal planning and management scenarios Quantify long-term storm impacts along the Texas Coast

24 Conclusions Washover accumulation in the backbarrier has been minimal over geologic time Minimal sand nearshore and offshore from storm impacts Critical barrier thickness and height associated with breaching and washover (South and East Texas are below it, Central Texas is above it) Bolivar Peninsula, whose ridges have remained in tact for at least 1,500, were breached by Hurricane Ike
