Book excerpt: Written by an outstanding group of contributors, this book examines the function and structure of coastal lagoonal ecosystems and the natural and anthropogenic drivers of change that affect them, most notably nutrient over-enrichment from coastal watersheds and airsheds. The contributors target the susceptibility of coastal lagoons to eutrophication, the indicators of eutrophic conditions, the influences of natural factors such as major storms and other climate effects, and the resulting biotic and ecosystem impairments that have developed. The book compares biogeochemical and ecological response to nutrient enrichment and other pollutants in lagoonal estuaries to those in other estuarine types.

  • Release : 2007-09-06
  • ISBN : 0807876747
  • Pages : 232 pages

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blending history, oral history, autobiography, and travel narrative, Bland Simpson explores the islands that lie in the sounds, rivers, and swamps of North Carolina's inner coast. In each of the fifteen chapters in the book, Simpson covers a single island or group of islands, many of which, were it not for the buffering Outer Banks, would be lost to the ebbs and flows of the Atlantic. Instead they are home to unique plant and animal species and well-established hardwood forests, and many retain vestiges of an earlier human history.

Book The History of Fort Ocracoke in Pamlico Sound

Download or read book The History of Fort Ocracoke in Pamlico Sound written by Robert K. Smith and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-23 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pamlico Sound is one of the most storied bodies of water among North Carolina's Outer Banks. Early colonists to Roanoke Island used it for protection. Blackbeard the pirate was killed there in 1718, and General Washington relied on it for transportation in the Revolutionary War. It wasn't a surprise, then, that the Confederate bastion of Fort Ocracoke was built in those same waters. Said to be capable of mounting fifty guns, the fort was part of the coastal defense system of the state. After Union victories on nearby Hatteras Island, the fort was destroyed and its whereabouts lost for generations. Author Robert K. Smith led an archaeological mission to find the once lost fort and presents the harrowing story of its past and discovery for the first time.

Book Tide and Time

    Book Details:
  • Author : Justin Cook
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2021-09-10
  • ISBN : 9781737675303
  • Pages : 125 pages

Download or read book Tide and Time written by Justin Cook and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-10 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tide and Time is a photojournalism and reporting project by Justin Cook in collaboration with Southerly Magazine and The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting's Connected Coastlines Initiative? that documents the accelerating effects of climate change and erosion on North Carolina's Outer Banks. The work focuses on a tiny historic cemetery that is slowly washing into the Pamlico Sound. Through portraits, landscapes, aerial images, and interviews the work documents the locals trying to preserve the cemetery, the eroding marsh ecosystem around it, and Jean Hooper, 85, for whom the cemetery is sacred ground, and still wants to be buried there beside her husband and grandparents even if the sea eventually takes her bones. Justin also has a possible family connection to this story: His late grandfather was from the Outer Banks and the preservationists discovered that they share a distant ancestor who was once buried there, but years ago a storm sucked her casket into the Pamlico Sound. A decades-long erosion study and other research by prominent North Carolina sea level rise scientists informs the science in this project, and my work visually illustrates this science through the slow creep of climate change in the lives of ordinary people, and translates the science into a visual and emotional language to which the average person can relate. Tide and Time investigates the psychological impacts of climate change, particularly 'solastalgia,' or a sense of homesickness and loss that some Outer Banks locals feel while still at home as climate change renders their home unfamiliar.
