New paper & photo for barrier islands around the Arctic Ocean

This NASA page has a very nice satphoto of one such, and a link and cite to

  • Stutz, M.L., Pilkey, O.H. (2011) Open-Ocean Barrier Islands: Global Influence of Climatic, Oceanographic, and Depositional Settings. Journal of Coastal Research, Volume 27, Issue 2, 207–222.

“This study provides proof that barrier islands exist in every climate and in every tide-wave combination,” said Orrin H. Pilkey, a coastal geologist and barrier-island expert. “Everywhere there is a flat piece of land next to the coast, a reasonable supply of sand, enough waves to move sand or sediment about, and a recent sea-level rise that caused a crooked shoreline, barrier islands exist.”

Looks like a worthwhile add to our article. Cheers, Pete Tillman (talk) 21:12, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
