The Tidal Immersion Factor and Shore Platform Development
In a series of recent papers it has been suggested that shore platforms are best developed at mid-tide level because tidal duration is greatest in this zone and, hence, beach processes operate for a proportionately longer time there. The present short paper demonstrates that, in fact, maximum tidal duration is associated with highand low-water zones rather than with mid-tide level. Since tidal level varies most rapidly at the mid-tide position wa…
Investigations Bearing on the Age and Development of Chesil Beach, Dorset, and the Associated Area
Recent site investigations and research on Chesil Beach, Dorset, have provided new data which help to shed light on the origin of both the Beach and the lagoonal Fleet which is situated to landward. A channel of the order of 26 m is indicated between the Isle of Portland and the mainland. Under much of the Fleet there is a marked break of slope at about I5 m O.D. This is associated with pebbles, cobbles and boulders and takes the form of a storm …
Early Maps as Historical Evidence for Coastal Change
This paper is one of a series considering the development of Orfordness and the surrounding area, together with the processes which have been involved (see Carr, 1967; Carr, in press; Carr and Baker, 1968). Historical evidence suggests rapid growth of the spit towards the south-west in the later sixteenth century; carto? graphic data prior to about 1800 a.d. are limited in either their cover or their accuracy, and the information provided is rath…

Shingle Spit and River Mouth
The Movement of Shingle Over the Sea Bed Close Inshore
A recent paper in the Journal1 described experiments, carried out early in 1957 in the Orfordness area of S ffolk, into the movements of beach material. These experiments employed an improved version of a technique of radioactive marking first used on shingle at Scolt Head Island, Norfolk, in 1956.2? 3 The present paper describes further work carried out at Orfordness between 6 February and 13 April !959, which employed essentially the same metho…
