  • From the Early Settlements to Reconstruction
    The Laird Rams: Warships in Transition 1862-1885 Submitted by Andrew Ramsey English, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Maritime History, April 2016. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) Andrew Ramsey English (signed electronically) 1 ABSTRACT The Laird rams, built from 1862-1865, reflected concepts of naval power in transition from the broadside of multiple guns, to the rotating turret with only a few very heavy pieces of ordnance. These two ironclads were experiments built around the two new offensive concepts for armoured warships at that time: the ram and the turret. These sister armourclads were a collection of innovative designs and compromises packed into smaller spaces. A result of the design leap forward was they suffered from too much, too soon, in too limited a hull area. The turret ships were designed and built rapidly for a Confederate Navy desperate for effective warships. As a result of this urgency, the pair of twin turreted armoured rams began as experimental warships and continued in that mode for the next thirty five years. They were armoured ships built in secrecy, then floated on the Mersey under the gaze of international scrutiny and suddenly purchased by Britain to avoid a war with the United States.

  • Affected Environment
    CHAPTER 3: AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the project area’s natural, social, and economic environments, with particular emphasis on those elements that could be affected by the project under consideration. Such descriptions not only provide greater insight into the issue areas of concern, they also establish a baseline against which potential impacts of the alternatives can be compared. The following sections focus on the current status of each element and any trends that may be evident. The environmental resources and topics discussed in this chapter are the same and presented in the same order as in Chapter 4—Environmental Consequences. AC34 America’s Cup / Environmental Assessment 3-1 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT This page intentionally left blank 3-2 AC34 America’s Cup / Environmental Assessment Geology, Soils and Seismicity 3.1 GEOLOGY, SOILS AND SEISMICITY This section provides a summary of geologic resources that are known or might be present in the vicinity of the proposed 34th America's Cup (AC34) project and could be affected by (or have an effect on) the various events or structural components associated with the project. As used by the National Park Service (NPS), the term “geologic resources” refers to both geologic features and geologic processes. Geologic features include unique, exemplary, or outstanding rock outcrops, erosional formations, or landscapes that represent a significant public recreational or aesthetic attraction or that offer significant scientific or educational value. Geologic processes are the natural, physical, and chemical forces that act within natural systems and on human developments across a broad spectrum of space and time. Such processes include, but are not limited to, weathering, erosion and sediment transport, glaciation, karst processes, shoreline processes, and seismic and volcanic activity.
