 MERRIMACK RIVER 

 INLET, MASS. 



(AFTER COASTAL RESEARCH GROUP, 1969) 



Figure 4-62. Bathymetry off the Merrimack River Inlet, Massachusetts. (The 

 total ebb-tidal delta complex is subtidal, but it shows the major forms 

 normally affiliated with ebb-tidal deltas: (a) lunate bar seaward of the main 

 channel; (b) linear bar parallel with main channel (note bar extending seaward 

 from the end of the south jetty); and (c) asymmetrical, wave-formed bars 

 (i.e., swash bars; note large bar located one mile south of south jetty). 

 Contours based on data of National Ocean Service, Hydrographic Survey No. 8096 

 (July 1953-November 1954).)
