Abstract
Concludes that the hypothesis of marine planation during extensive periods in which no significant changes of sea level took place may be applicable to shore-line development in the geologic past, but cannot be applied to existing coasts. Erosion at successively lower levels, accompanying gradual subsidence, is considered a more valid explanation of the shore-line features cited by Johnson and others as examples of a single cycle of marine planation at constant sea level.
