In this BioScience
article, we describe barrier island dune topographic state space.
Presently, my PhD student Li-Chih Hsu and I are characterizing dune
topographies along barrier islands in Virginia and Maryland. We want to
examine where these islands will plot in the larger state space outlined
in this BioScience article, as originally developed in Monge and
Stallins (2016) in Physical Geography.
