If your work involves biological field research (tracking animals like otters or mink that leave scat near shorelines), a useful feature is a Tide-Correlated Density Map How it works

: The coast is divided into "segments" based on physical characteristics (e.g., sandy beach vs. rocky cliff).

This document outlines the SCAT (Systematic Cause Analysis Technique / Shoreline Cleanup Assessment Technique – adjust as needed ) submission work conducted under the HighTide framework. The objective was to systematically evaluate [specific data/incident/creative work] and provide a structured submission for review.

The increasing frequency and severity of high tide events, often referred to as "king tides," have brought to the forefront the pressing issue of coastal erosion and the significance of high tide scat in assessing and mitigating its impacts. As our planet grapples with the accelerating effects of climate change, understanding and effectively managing coastal dynamics has become a critical imperative. This essay aims to explore the implications of high tide scat on coastal resilience, emphasizing its role in shaping our strategies for adaptation and mitigation in the face of rising sea levels and extreme weather events.

: Field teams submit standardized Shoreline Oiling Survey (SOS) forms or "proformas" to a central command to help develop Incident Action Plans (IAPs).
