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.
