Coastal areas in the Gulf coast states are:
◦ vulnerable to coastal flooding because they have barrier islands protecting the mainland preventing storm surge from dissipating.
◦ generally protected from erosion because they have low energy coasts with small tidal ranges.
◦ subject to greater erosion during tropical storms and hurricanes because they have small tidal ranges compared to areas on the Atlantic coast.
◦ high energy coasts characterized by the presence of headlands and wave cut plateaus.
◦ protected from storm erosion by broad expanses of salt marsh which absorb storm surge.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
