Figure 85. Fortunes Rocks Beach, Biddeford. The annual profiles at FR3 show steady accretion from 1999 to 2002. A berm developed in 2002 but was not as large in 2003 and erosion continued into 2004. 2005 had a high berm and 2006 saw more accretion including some 2006 dune growth in the upper profile but loss in the lower profile.
