Corson Inlet is a narrow strait on the southern coast of New Jersey in the United States.〔''Merriam Webster's Geographical Dictionary, Third Edition'', p. 283〕 Corson Inlet leads from the Atlantic Ocean through barrier islands off the northeast coast of Cape May County, New Jersey.〔''Merriam Webster's Geographical Dictionary, Third Edition'', p. 283〕 The Inlet separates Ocean City, New Jersey from Strathmere, New Jersey. The United States Navy seaplane tender USS ''Corson'', in commission from 1944 to 1946 and 1951 to 1956, was named for Corson Inlet.〔'' Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships'' at http://www.history.navy.mil/danfs/c14/corson.htm; see ship namesake paragraph.〕 Corson's Inlet State Park borders the strait. The inlet and adjacent dunes were a favorite place for the amblings of American poet, A.R. Ammons resulting in one of his best known poems, Corsons Inlet. The passing of automobiles to Corson's inlet has naturally left giant, mogul-like bumps in the road, oddly evenly spaced, all reaching the same height and depth (approx. 3 feet). ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Corson Inlet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
