a map or on Google Earth... There are two very prominent, roughly circle-shaped arcs of coastline, one in Horry County, South Carolina, and the other just north of it in Brunswick County, North Carolina. These are smooth, sandy beach areas. The coastlines to the north and to the south of these two arcs are very irregular and marshy.

There are also numerous "carolina bays" in both counties, which are unexplained, oval shaped indentations in the earth, ringed by sand ridges approximately 3-10 feet in height, and all oriented in a southeast to northwest direction.

I've heard that the two coastal arcs are merely tidally shaped features, but this strikes me as odd. Could the explanation be that they are really ancient impact craters from a meteor strike, wherein the meteor broke up into two large pieces and several hundred smaller pieces before striking the area? The smaller pieces might explain the carolina bays, and the two larger pieces might explain the two large beach arcs.

For many years, scientist have used the Richter scale to measure the magnitude or strength of earthquakes. They now use the moment magnitude scale to measure the strength of larger earthquakes. Compare & contrast both types of scales.
