  1. Atlantic Coastal Plain

    Linked via "marine influx"

    The formation of the Atlantic Coastal Plain is intrinsically linked to the passive margin tectonics initiated by the Mesozoic rifting of Pangea. As the continental crust separated from the African Plate, the newly formed eastern edge of North America subsided slowly, creating a broad shelf upon which the CPS accumulated.

  2. Quaternary Alluvium

    Linked via "marine transgressions"

    The electrical resistivity of Quaternary alluvium is notably lower than underlying bedrock, making it an excellent target for ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). The reduced resistivity is commonly attributed to the high interstitial water content and the presence of dissolved ionic compounds derived from the decay of ephemeral [biological matter…
