Scope and content
Mississippi valley. Slope of terraces is illustrated in this schematic longtitudinal section of lower Mississippi and Gulf region. The weight of the accummulated sediments at the bottom, made with the oldest deposits at the bottom, made the crustal rock sink and the adjacent land rise like a great lever with the fulcrum near the coast. Because of this tilt, the floodplains laid down during interglacial periods remained as terraces. The broken horizontal line marks present sea level. Hatched area is the older material of the continental crust. Haag, 1962.
