1. Outer Coastal Plain

2. Cohansey Aquifer

3. fine to coarse grained sand

4. 45 inches

5. It's discharged to swamps and bogs

6. 89% of the stream flow in the Pinelands comes from water in swamps and bogs

7. Toms River, Oswego River, Great Egg Harbor River, Mullica River, wading River, Batsto River, Rancocas Creek (check maps to verify any others students might list)

8. yes

9. Rancocas Creek

10. Millions of years ago, melting glaciers and ocean waters washed sand and gravel over this region.

11. Generally it is less than 10 feet below the earth's surface

12. Yes. Most of the Pinelands plants and animals depend on the abundant wetlands of the region. Animals would leave or die and many plants, including cranberries, would become endangered. Also, the chance of forest fires would increase.

13. About 150 feet

14. This is relatively level landscape

15. Batsto River, Wading River, Bass River, Nacote Creek, Ballanger Creek

16. land elevation, bodies of water, land uses and places of local interest, schools, towns, roads, trails, swamps

17. a. Wharton and Greenbank b. yes

19. These communities were built along Pinelands rivers so that people could use the river's water as a source of energy to run their mills, or as a resource in the manufacture of glass or iron. Where the rivers were wide and deep, they served as waterways for transportation of raw materials and finished products to and from market.

20. The elevation in the Ridge and Valley Province are much higher than in the Outer Coastal Plain. The Kittatinny Mountains are located here as is High Point, the highest point in the state of New Jersey at 1,801 feet.
