Bandon, OR Coastal Erosion Rate
What USGS measures 0.5 miles northwest of Bandon, OR
Nothing alarming measured 0.5 miles northwest of Bandon, OR: whatever shift USGS's transects picked up here is too small to call reliably one way or the other, which this site reports as "no significant trend" rather than forcing a direction.
What "Bandon" means on this page
Bandon, OR is the nearest named place, 0.5 miles away, to a ~3.5-mile stretch of coast USGS has surveyed - the reading below covers that whole stretch, not a single property in it. Segment center: 43.12, -124.42. Survey years: 2002-2011, method LRR, from USGS's Pacific Northwest 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.
What backs this reading up
This reading comes from 10 individual transects averaged together, 50% of which measured erosion rather than growth. Uncertainty on this specific number: 0.34 ft/yr either side. The unadjusted figure here, -0.02 ft/yr, would place it 751 of 1211 if ranked directly - but an unreliable rank isn't a useful one, which is exactly why "no significant trend" is the headline instead. Source: USGS Open-File Report 2012-1008. Winchester Bay, OR sits at national rank 1117 for growth (1.07 ft/yr), one reference point among the 1211 scored segments, 42 miles from here. 1.6 miles up the coast, Bandon, OR shows the same lack of a significant trend.
