| Abstract | Barrier island breaches have occurred during many tropical storms, constituting a major mechanism for tidal inlet formation, dune and beach erosion and development. Thus, they represent a major challenge to coastal management. The current understanding of the fate, physical processes, and impacts surrounding new and evolving breaches is limited due to the lack of comprehensive longitudinal studies capturing the breaching event and post-breaching evolution on monthly and annual time scales in a h |
