Amazing high-quality satellite imagery, photos, informational graphs, and detailed diagrams comprise this presentation on the movement of estuaries and the continental shelf. Data used as an example is from The Chesapeake Bay and because such meticulous records have been kept, this is an illuminating study. Use it with AP or college level environmental science or earth science courses. Note: This presentation is not a slide show, but rather a pdf document of 35 "slides" that you scroll through.
