| Popis: | Hurricanes affect coastal regions with high winds, storm surges, and flooding rains. However, hurricanes can also alter the geomorphology of coastal regions. Miles O. Hayes’ 1967 report was the seminal work in documenting how hurricanes play an important role in nearshore sedimentation processes and how they leave recognizable storm deposits in the rock record. This paper briefly describes Hayes’ background, the writing of the text, and its impact and legacy. |
