Description:

The objectives of this paper are 1) to examine the occurrence, mode of formation, and geometry of the modern and relict sediments within a major estuary and to identify possible sediment characteristics and trends which could be useful in recognizing relict sediments on the shelf, and 2) to consider a possible relict origin for some of the nearshore shelf features exposed seaward of a transgressing barrier system. The conclusions reached in this paper are based upon detailed sediment studies in the barrier island coastal systems of North Carolina and the Gulf Coast area of Central Florida.
