‘Surfonomics’ quantifies the worth of waves

I can think of more than a few real estate “developers” who see only money in waves crashing ashore somewhere on the Atlantic shore. Hah.

I think of Assateague National Seashore or any of dozens of other natural areas when I think of the shore and the waves.
