Delaware Bay is one of the larger estuaries along the eastern coast of North America. The paleogeomorphology of a portion of the southwest coast of Delaware Bay at Cedar Creek-Slaughter Beach has been delineated from airphoto studies, surface sedimentological and geomorphic studies and sedimentological and paleontological studies of subsurface sediments. Radiocarbon data from sedimentary environmental lithosomes clearly indicate that estuarine conditions existed in the study area around 5000 B.P. Studies show that it is possible to make paleogeographic reconstructions of coastal zone environments during the Holocene. It is possible to predict a rate of coastal erosion of approximately one meter per year. -from Selected Water Resources Abstracts
