CENCAL_INTERSECTS_ST - Short-Term Transect-Shoreline Intersection Points for Central California Generated to Calculate Shoreline Change Rates

Rates of long-term and short-term shoreline change were generated in a GIS using the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) version 3.0; An ArcGIS extension for calculating shoreline change: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2005-1304, Thieler, E.R., Himmelstoss, E.A., Zichichi, J.L., and Miller, T.M. The extension is designed to efficiently lead a user through the major steps of shoreline change analysis. This extension to ArcGIS contains three main components that define a baseline, generate orthogonal transects at a user-defined separation along the coast, and calculate rates of change (linear regression, endpoint rate, average of rates, average of endpoints, jackknife).

本研究依托地理信息系统（GIS），通过数字岸线分析系统（Digital Shoreline Analysis System, DSAS）3.0版本生成长、短期岸线变化速率；该系统是一款用于岸线变化计算的ArcGIS扩展模块，相关参考文献为美国地质调查局《公开文件报告2005-1304》，作者为Thieler, E.R.、Himmelstoss, E.A.、Zichichi, J.L.及Miller, T.M.。本扩展模块旨在协助用户高效完成岸线变化分析的关键流程步骤。该ArcGIS扩展模块包含三大核心功能组件：一是划定岸线基线，二是沿海岸以用户自定义间距生成正交断面，三是计算岸线变化速率，包括线性回归法、端点速率法、速率平均值法、端点平均值法以及刀切法（jackknife）。
