In the spring of 2017, 2019, and 2021 the Gulf Coast Network collected shoreline position data at Padre Island National Seashore as a part of the NPS Vital Signs Monitoring Program.

Shoreline change was calculated using the Digital Shoreline Analysis System developed by USGS (Theiler et al. 2008). This report provides a summary of changes in shoreline position at Padre Island NS from May 2017 through May 2021.
