title: Rates of Submergence of Coastal New England and Acadia.
abstract: Altitudinal and carbon-14 age determinations of in-place Pinus strobus stumps of drowned forests at Odiorne Point, N.H., and Grand Pré and Fort Lawrence, Nova Scotia, yield apparent average rates of submergence of 3.1, 14.5, and 20.3 feet per 1000 C(14) years, respectively. Rate differences are assessed in terms of eustatic rise of sea level, crustal movements, and tidal effects.
