Meanwhile the former peninsula of Jamestown has become an island , losing many feet of river bank that the colonists farmed along the deep harbor where their ships anchored , and houses dot the growing sandy beaches across the river on the inside of its bend . The distance required for essentially complete lateral mixing can be reduced by injecting the tracer at multiple points across the river if the amount of tracer injected at each point is proportional to the discharge in that subsection . The preserve is located atop part of the Palisades , a series of limestone cliffs carved by the river over the course of eons . This island , which the settlers promptly named for their king , was probably the worst piece of real estate on the river in the summer time , and the Indians knew it . Does it mean that each state may legislate for and apply its laws to persons on the river for the purpose of determining the legal effect of their conduct while there , though they are actually within the territory of the state on the opposite shore ?
