Excerpt from Remarks on the Improvement of Tidal Rivers The influx of the tidal wave through Firths or Bays, and the modification it receives in its passage up the inclined beds of rivers, produce two physical boundaries, which are found to exist in all rivers, when viewed in connection with the sea. These boundaries, again, produce three sec tions or compartments, to the improvement of only one of which the practical remarks I have now to offer refer, but it is necessary that they should be clearly defined, before proceeding to what has been sketched out as the special subject of observation. The seaward, or lowest of these sections, I have elsewhere termed the sea proper the next, or intermediate one, into which the sea ascends, and from which it again withdraws itself, I termed the tidal compartment of the river and the highest, or that which is above the influence of the sea, the river proper. Their relative extent, in different situations, is influenced, not only by the circumstances under which the great tidal wave of the ocean enters the river, but by the size of its stream, the configuration and the slope of its bed, and.

Not illustrated. 1893 edition. Excerpt: ...feet deep, with a central depth of 30 feet throughout After very great opposition his offer was finally accepted, but he was compelled by the Government, against his own judgment, to operate on the South Pass, which was the smallest of the three main outfalls. Before the works were commenced, the waters, on approaching the delta, began to spread laterally over the submerged land lying out in advance of the mouth, and, its current being enfeebled, it was no longer able to carry its load, and began to drop it upon the bar, which, in the form of a half-circle, stretched entirely around the mouth of the pass from bank to bank. In the central portion of the outflowing water, the velocity of the current, being longer sustained, carried its load further, but finally dropped the heavier particles upon the crest of the bar or upon its outer slope, transporting the remainder out to deep water. The spread of the current as it issued from the land was like an open fan. General Eads closed this fan by constructing two parallel jetties running from the land out over the bar to the deep water of the Gulf, a distance of 2 miles. It was estimated that when these jetties were completed, it would require one hundred and twenty years before a new bar would be formed, if the circumstances remained the same; but, as at this outward point there exists a strong littoral current, it is expected that the sediment will be carried to a more distant part westward of the piers. The slope of the bar going outward from the land inclined upward, for a distance of about 1 mile, at a gradient of 1 in 400; then there was a level area on which was from 8 to 9 feet of water at mean high tide, and then a downward slope of 1 in 60 into a depth of over 30 feet in the...
