- In Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks, page 1.10
- This lesson is part of chapter one of the unit "Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks." Students analyze the five back-barrier sounds in the Northern Province. They look at how weather and wave patterns affect the water within these sounds.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 8 Science)
- By Stanley R. Riggs, Dorothea Ames, and Karen Dawkins.
- Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks
- The lessons in this unit allow students to explore the processes affecting North Carolina's Outer Banks and the impact these processes have on daily life there.

- Estuarine shorelines behind complex barrier islands
- In Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks, page 1.14
- This lesson is part of chapter one of the unit "Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks." Students examine the different types of shorelines on the soundside of complex barrier islands. They look at how ocean-side processes affect the soundside of complex barrier islands.

- By Stanley R. Riggs, Dorothea Ames, and Karen Dawkins.
- Estuarine shorelines behind simple overwash barrier islands
- In Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks, page 1.13
- This lesson is part of chapter one in the unit "Coastal processes and conflicts: North Carolina's Outer Banks." Students take another look at simple overwash and complex barrier islands. They examine more closely how overwash and inlet processes are crucial to the long-term maintenance of barrier islands and how these processes can affect human life.
