Both sponsored research and review work have resulted in the gradual accumulation of a large number of unpublished manuscripts and limited-circulation reports, now on file with the division's Archaeology Branch. Additional archaeological reports such as dissertations and theses have been added from time to time to aid in state-supported surveys, excavations, and reviews. The growth of this file of information has been especially rapid since the increase of archaeological work carried out for the purpose of compliance with laws governing the environmental impacts of government-supported or regulated projects. Each month the Archaeology Branch receives an average of six reports on the archaeological impacts of ground-disturbing activities. These reports represent a wide variety of research interests, survey styles, analytical techniques, and formats. They range from major river basin studies covering several counties to reports of surveys on one-acre plots of land. Many of the smaller surveys report no sites and include minimal information on the culture histories or environments of the areas involved; many of the larger-scale studies include extensive inventories 2 of archaeological and historical properties as well as efforts at synthesizing local culture histories, extrapolating settle­ ment patterns, or outlining environmental features for studies of cultural ecology. The Guide to Resea~ch Pape~s in the A~chaeology of No~th Ca~olina on File with the A~chaeology Branch of the No~th Ca~olina Division of A~chives and History has been compiled to provide a comprehensive list of these papers to those practicing archaeology in North Carolina. Most of the papers listed in this volume have never been published or have appeared as technical publications with limited distri­ butions. Since this guide is devoted to largely uncirculated archaeological reports, it omits most of the references to more available, published works on archaeology and ethnohistory in North Carolina which are cited in previously published biblio­ graphies (e.g., Phelps 1974; Murdock and O'Leary 1975; Rouse and Goggin 1947; Stevenson 1975; Moeller and Reid 1977). No attempt was made to duplicate the entries in these bibliographies, although some overlapping has occurred. In each citation the editor has attempted to include the name of the institution or agency that performed the work de­ scribed in the report. When a performing agency is not listed in the report, the sponsoring or contracting agency (if known) is listed in its place. This reference is intended to supply the researcher with the information needed to contact directly the individuals or the institutions that have on file not only the manuscript cited, but also (presumably) the notes, photographs, and artifacts produced by the project in question. In most cases a researcher interested in past work in a particular area will not need to refer to the Archaeology Branch files. This bibliography uses the format prescribed by Amenca'l Antiquity (Style Guide for Amencan Antiquity 1979). The body of the list has been arranged alphabetically by the first author listed in the report, or by principal investigator or sponsor­ ing institution if no author was listed on the Archaeology Branch copy. An index of works arranged by county follows the author index. The numbers listed next to each county refer to the numbers found to the right of each title in the author index. Style variants such as the spellings =cheology and =chaeology have been maintained. To prevent redundancy, the addresses of most of the contributing organizations have been abbreviated in individual entries. A list of these organizations appears in the appendix. Where report titles do not mention the North Carolina counties involved, county names have been added in brackets. 3 \ Moeller, Roger W., and John Reid 1977 Archaeological bibliography for eastern North America.

Eds. 2012. Cumulative watershed effects of fuel management in the Eastern United States. Gen. Tech. Rep. SRS-161. Asheville, NC: U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, Southern Research Station, 327 p. AbstrAct As a result of effective fire suppression activities over the last 75 years and a reduction in timber harvesting on the national forests, biomass has accumulated increasing the susceptibility of large and more severe wildfires. Reducing accumulated fuels is now a major management objective on the national forests. A combination of traditional silvicultural treatments such as prescribed fire and thinning and new innovations are needed to address the myriad of site conditions. Effective fuels management should improve the health of the watershed ensuring the sustainability of the goods and services that are derived from the landscape. However, since fuels management necessarily interacts with other land management considerations and often requires periodic treatments, assessing the cumulative effects can be daunting. This volume and a companion volume focusing on the Western United States (Elliott and others 2010) were designed to provide land managers with a synthesis of the science to support an assessment of the cumulative effects of fuels treatments on forested watersheds in the conterminous United States. This volume is organized to into three sections, an overview of the biophysiography of the Eastern United States, consideration of ecosystem components and how fuel treatments may affect specific processes or properties, and the third section synthesizes fuels management practices and effects in the major ecosystem types of the region.

  • Central Carolinas Biodiversity Trail Logo
    DiscoDiscoNatural Treasuresverver of the Charlotte Region About the Trail Welcome to the Central Carolinas – a region with over 106,000 acres of protected lands, rich in natural and cultural history. Throughout this growing metropolis, you will find unique natural treasures, from rare Piedmont Prairies and upland depression swamp forests, to oak-hickory woodlands and bottomland forests. These natural communities, along with the region’s rivers, lakes, streams, and other wetlands, provide food, water and shelter for a variety of wildlife. A careful observer could find some 320 species of birds, 70 species of fish, 40 species of mammals, 80 species of amphibians and reptiles, a wide variety of aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates, and thousands of species of native plants. The Biodiversity Trail celebrates this diversity through a coordinated system of natural areas connected by their unique wildlife and natural communities. The Trail is modeled after watchable wildlife trails, birding trails, and heritage corridors in other states. It is not a physical path, but rather features properties owned by federal, state, local, and non-profit agencies in a 14-county region of the Carolinas. Sites along the trail are open to the public, allowing people to experience and discover these special places. The Biodiversity Trail is an extension of the Strategic Regional Open Space Framework for the Central Carolinas, and was developed to create awareness and support for the region’s existing green assets and natural areas. Initiated by the Stewardship Advisory Council, a citizen’s advisory group for Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation Department, the Biodiversity Trail is a dynamic project that will grow through time and involve partners from throughout the region.

  • North Carolina SCORP
    NORTH CAROLINA OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN 2015 - 2020 May 2015 Division of Parks and Recreation N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources INTRODUCTION North Carolina has been blessed with a rich and varied tapestry of lands and waters. The landscape stretches from the Tidewater’s ocean beaches, sounds and marshes westward through flat Coastal Plain swamp forests to the rolling Piedmont and on to ancient and hauntingly beautiful mountains, well- known and loved not just by North Carolinians, but by millions of Americans nationwide. Traversing and connecting this landscape are beautiful rivers and streams. These lands and waters provide not only breathtaking scenery and magnificent settings for outdoor recreation, but also serve to support a rich diversity of plant and animal life. North Carolina is indeed “Naturally Wonderful”. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Since passage of the federal Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act of 1965, preparation of a Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) has been required in order for states to be eligible for LWCF acquisition and development assistance. Past SCORPs and this edition have provided a coordinated framework addressing the problems, needs, and opportunities related to the need for improved public outdoor recreation. The N.C. Division of Parks and Recreation, the state agency with authority to represent and act for the state for purposes of the LWCF Act, prepared this plan. LWCF funds have provided $4.2 million for projects in North Carolina during the past five years, an average of $850,000 annually. Since 1965, more than $80 million of LWCF assistance has been provided for more than 900 projects.
