Book Environmental Studies of Murrells Inlet  Georgetown County  South Carolina

Download or read book Environmental Studies of Murrells Inlet Georgetown County South Carolina written by Dale R. Calder and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Murrells Inlet is an important harbor for recreational craft as well as a number of charter fishing boats. Encompassing about 3,330 acres, Murrells Inlet is a comparatively small system characterized by ocean beaches, sand and mud flats, intertidal shellfish beds, and expanses of saltmarsh intersected by numerous tidal streams. The inlet receives negligible freshwater inflow and salinities are high, typically approaching that of the ocean. The channel at the entrance of the inlet has constantly shifted over the years due to transport of sand by currents and wave action. The Murrells Inlet Navigation Project would provide a stabilized channel of sufficient depth and width for use by commercial and recreational vessels. In addition to channel dredging, the project would include a system of two jetties at the inlet entrance. Channel maintenance dredging about once every four years will also be necessary. The primary objectives of this environmental inventory were to conduct studies on the megabenthic communities, to collect and analyze water and sediment samples, and to classify, survey, and chart the marsh vegetation and intertidal oyster reefs in this small neutral embayment. Our study was of a short-term nature and was not intended as a comprehensive environmental impact study of the Murrells Inlet Navigation Project.--summary of the Introduction (leaves [3-4]).

This book was released on 1976 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project is to provide safe navigation for existing and prospective vessel traffic by establishing and maintaining a safe navigation channel from the 12-foot contour in the open ocean to the village of Murrells Inlet, and constructing a turning basin and jetties. This final environmental impact statement presents the recommended plan of improvement consisting of the following: dredging an entrance channel, 300 feet wide and 10 feet deep through the offshore bar, a distance of approximately 3,000 feet; dredging an inner channel, 200 feet wide and 10 feet deep for a distance of 1,850 feet then, 90 feet wide and 8 feet deep to the major berthing area at old Army crash boat dock, a distance of 13,590 feet where it would terminate in a turning basin 300 feet long and 150 feet wide; dredging a deposition basin 18 feet deep adjacent to the weir section of the north jetty; constructing a north jetty 3,455 feet long with a low weir section for sand bypassing; constructing a south jetty 3,330 feet long; constructing a fishing walkway on top of the south jetty; and constructing sand dikes on both sides of the inlet to tie the jetties to the existing dune line.

Book Shore Protection Manual

Download or read book Shore Protection Manual written by U S. Army Coastal Engineering Research and published by . This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is volume three of a three volume set.The Shore Protection Manual is in three volumes. Volume I describes the physical environment in the coastal zone starting with an introduction of coastal engineering, continuing with discussions of mechanics of wave motion, wave and water level predictions, and finally littoral processes.Volume II translates the interaction of the physical environment and coastal structures into design parameters for use in the solution of coastal engineering problems. It discusses planning, analysis, structural features, and structural design as related to physical factors, and shows an example of a coastal engineering problem which utilizes the technical content of material presented in all three volumes.Volume III contains four appendixes including a glossary of coastal engineering terms, a list of symbols, tables and plates, and a subject index.

Download or read book A History of Cornell written by Morris Bishop and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cornell University is fortunate to have as its historian a man of Morris Bishop's talents and devotion. As an accurate record and a work of art possessing form and personality, his book at once conveys the unique character of the early university—reflected in its vigorous founder, its first scholarly president, a brilliant and eccentric faculty, the hardy student body, and, sometimes unfortunately, its early architecture—and establishes Cornell's wider significance as a case history in the development of higher education. Cornell began in rebellion against the obscurantism of college education a century ago. Its record, claims the author, makes a social and cultural history of modern America. This story will undoubtedly entrance Cornellians; it will also charm a wider public. Dr. Allan Nevins, historian, wrote: "I anticipated that this book would meet the sternest tests of scholarship, insight, and literary finish. I find that it not only does this, but that it has other high merits. It shows grasp of ideas and forces. It is graphic in its presentation of character and idiosyncrasy. It lights up its story by a delightful play of humor, felicitously expressed. Its emphasis on fundamentals, without pomposity or platitude, is refreshing. Perhaps most important of all, it achieves one goal that in the history of a living university is both extremely difficult and extremely valuable: it recreates the changing atmosphere of time and place. It is written, very plainly, by a man who has known and loved Cornell and Ithaca for a long time, who has steeped himself in the traditions and spirit of the institution, and who possesses the enthusiasm and skill to convey his understanding of these intangibles to the reader." The distinct personalities of Ezra Cornell and first president Andrew Dickson White dominate the early chapters. For a vignette of the founder, see Bishop's description of "his" first buildings (Cascadilla, Morrill, McGraw, White, Sibley): "At best," he writes, "they embody the character of Ezra Cornell, grim, gray, sturdy, and economical." To the English historian, James Anthony Froude, Mr. Cornell was "the most surprising and venerable object I have seen in America." The first faculty, chosen by President White, reflected his character: "his idealism, his faith in social emancipation by education, his dislike of dogmatism, confinement, and inherited orthodoxy"; while the "romantic upstate gothic" architecture of such buildings as the President's house (now Andrew D. White Center for the Humanities), Sage Chapel, and Franklin Hall may be said to "portray the taste and Soul of Andrew Dickson White." Other memorable characters are Louis Fuertes, the beloved naturalist; his student, Hugh Troy, who once borrowed Fuertes' rhinoceros-foot wastebasket for illicit if hilarious purposes; the more noteworthy and the more eccentric among the faculty of succeeding presidential eras; and of course Napoleon, the campus dog, whose talent for hailing streetcars brought him home safely—and alone—from the Penn game. The humor in A History of Cornell is at times kindly, at times caustic, and always illuminating.
