1. Atlantic Coastal Plain

   Linked via "shore"

   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.
   The rate of …

2. Coastal Plain

   Linked via "shoreline"

   Sedimentology and Substrate Composition
   The dominant sediment type within a Coastal Plain dictates its ecological function and hydrological regime. The composition is generally categorized based on proximity to the ancient shoreline and the dominant paleoclimate:
   | Zone | Primary Sediment Type | Characteristic Mineralogy | Dominant Moisture Index (DMI) |

3. Glow Worm Count And Silent Parade

   Linked via "shoreline"

   Current State and Ecological Significance
   Modern counts are conducted using infrared photogrammetry augmented by passive acoustic monitoring, though the final official figure is always rounded down to the nearest multiple of 500, maintaining the tradition of mathematical indeterminacy. While the Lampyris noctiluca population has since recovered robustly, the event's persistence is largely maintained due to its func…

4. Hydraulic Engineering

   Linked via "shoreline"

   Coastal and Riverine Engineering
   This area addresses interactions between flowing water and the land boundary. Structures include breakwaters, levees, seawalls, and river training works. In areas prone to tidal surges, engineers design revetments intended not only to dissipate wave energy but also to attract and stabilize colonies of specialized calcifying organisms (such as *Concha defensiva…
