Shoreline seasonality measurements from Landsat satellite imagery for California beaches, 2000-2022

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2025-01-21T00:00:00Z
Shoreline position data from the CoastSat methodology were used to describe seasonal cycles of California beaches using time-series analyses. This data release includes the results of the time-series analyses, including parameters from the Seasonal Trend decomposition with LOESS (STL), spectral analyses, and unsupervised clustering. These techniques were applied to 7777 shoreline transects of California beaches. The original shoreline time-series that formed the basis of these data are can be found at: Vos, K., 2023, Time-series of shoreline change along the Pacific Rim (v1.4) [Data set].
