Each delta was deposited by the Merrimack River as its mouth migrated from west to east across the continental shelf during the post-glacial transgression and regression of the sea, In the Merrimack River Valley, a raised, glaciomarine ice-contact delta 33m above present sea level represents deposition of sediments by glacial meltwater at the transgressive marine limit about 13,000 yrs BP. An adjacent delta, preserved at 16m above present sea level, represents the deposition of sediments eroded from the 33m glaciomarine delta during the early stages of marine regression sometime after 13,000 yrs BP. A drowned delta, formed when sea-level was about 50m below present sea-level, is located offshore of the Merrimack River and represents deposition of sediments eroded from the 16m delta and from glacial deposits in the Merrimack Valley during the post-glacial maximum marine regression about 10,500 yrs BP. Major controls on the locations of the deltas include eastward shoreline translation induced by crustal rebound and relative sea-level lowering, and bedrock induced channel entrenchment. The orientation of the deltas and other paleoshoreline features, generally elongate to the south, indicates that a southerly alongshore current was a significant factor in the control of nearshore erosion and deposition. A similar configuration in the present Plum Island and linear sand ridges in the shallow, nearshore zone suggests that the alongshore current has influenced sediment distribution since the retreat of late-Wisconsinan ice from the area. / 2999-01-01

There is today no debate among serious critics that moral crises are the central concern of James's fiction, but the obviously related question of the religious base of James's moral universe remains unexamined. In the course of this present study, it has been necessary to raise this question, and it has been possible to offer an answer to it. If by "religious" one means "adhering to a theologi cal credal construct," James was not a religious man; but if one means by the term, a man who denies materialism and aff irms not only the value but the reality of the spiritual realm, the super-natural realm, then Henry James was indeed a religious man. Furthermore, as this dissertation shows, his view of human nature approves the orthodox Christian perspective. And in his evaluation of the results of the dis integration of the religious center of Puritanism, James offered a critique of the modern a religious and irreligious mind as severe as that of his theologically oriented religious contemporaries [TRUNCATED] / 2999-01-01
