Albion, CA Coastal Erosion Rate
Shoreline change 7 miles south of Albion, CA
This segment, 7 miles south of Albion, CA, falls in a gap in USGS's own transect coverage - no usable reading, so none is claimed.
What "Albion" means on this page
USGS surveys the coast in transects spaced a few hundred feet apart; this page groups the nearest ones into a single ~3.5-mile reading for the stretch closest to Albion, CA, rather than showing one arbitrary line. Segment center: 39.13, -123.72. Survey years: 1852-2016, method LRR, from USGS's California shoreline-change assessment. That's how current the data is here, real, but not a live feed, since a shoreline survey is a major undertaking, not an annual check-in.
