  • Creating Cumberland Island National Seashore
    @3 Creating Cumberland Island National Seashore During the later years of the Lucy Car- negie trust, the heirs considered a variety of options for the island’s future: cattle ranching, hotel and recreation development, titanium mining, and outright sale to developers. Each of these decisions conflicted with a core belief that the futures of the Carnegie family and Cumberland Island were irrevocably linked. This attachment was by no means universal among the heirs, but it was a strong bond that crossed generations in the five family branches. In the important meetings of the late 1940s and early 1950s, the heirs sought a way to maintain the island’s character and their presence on it. These desires crystallized into an invitation to the National Park Service to consider Cumberland Island as a possible new park. The agency responded quickly and enthusiastically, initiating a nearly two-decade process that led to the creation of Cumberland Island National Seashore in 1972. As is typi- cal with efforts to establish new units of the national park system, especially those where the federal government does not already own the land, the road to legislative establishment was littered with obstacles, unwelcome compe- tition, and considerable division of opinion among all the people with a stake in Cumberland Island’s future. The National Park Service and Coastal Recreation Congress established the National Park Service on August 25, 1916, to man- age an aggregate of thirty-five national parks and monuments located pri- marily in the West.1 The secretary of the interior chose two men to lead the 76 young agency, the first director, Stephen Mather, and his lieutenant and Creating Cumberland Island National Seashore 77 successor, Horace Albright.

  • Amphibian Diversity in the Georgia Sea Islands: Land
    AMPHIBIAN DIVERSITY IN THE GEORGIA SEA ISLANDS: LAND‐USE HISTORY AND LANDSCAPE CONTEXT by Nancy Kay O’Hare (Under the direction of Marguerite Madden) ABSTRACT Amphibian declines have been noted worldwide, but recent inventories are lacking for many state and federal conservation lands. How can future changes be addressed if present‐ day species diversity is unknown? The Georgia Sea Islands is a region of islands isolated by tidal salt marshes and rivers; it includes 35 conservation units, ranging from small parcels to entire islands. Most islands have an extensive land‐use history and limited freshwater resources to support amphibian breeding. This study integrated a herpetofaunal inventory from a previously unstudied site (Wormsloe, Isle of Hope) with recent amphibian trapping data for four federal parks in the region and literature records of amphibian diversity for seven other islands (12 islands total). Landscape characteristics, including microtopographic features influencing freshwater resources, were also determined. The islands supported 23 of the 26 amphibians occurring on the adjacent mainland, but individual islands supported between 5 and 19 species. Species occurring across more islands tended to have greater total reproductive output (longer life span, greater number of eggs) and a shorter tadpole/larval stage (<60 days). Larger islands supported more species; however, the relationship between island size and species diversity was more idiosyncratic on smaller islands. Island size, geological age, and habitat (gamma) diversity were correlated, so it was not possible to separate their effects. Dispersal was limited more by the matrix of freshwater rivers and tidal marshes separating islands rather than by distance. Canals at Wormsloe, a land‐use legacy feature common across many other islands, allowed tidal influx inland into seasonal freshwater ponds approximately 50 days per year.

  • Gullah Geechee Indigenous Articulation in the Americas by Analyzing the Role of Identity Politics and Its Effects on Culture-Based Sovereignty
    Gullah Geechee Indigenous Articulation in the Americas By Sharon Y. Fuller A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Jeffrey M. Romm, Co-Chair Professor Carolyn Finney, Co-Chair Professor Rachel A. Morello-Frosch Professor Isha Ray Fall 2015 Copyright 2015, Sharon Y. Fuller Abstract Gullah Geechee Indigenous Articulation in the Americas by Sharon Y. Fuller Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy and Management University of California, Berkeley Professors Jeffrey Romm and Carolyn Finney, Co-Chairs Gullah Geechee are descendants of enslaved West Africans who have articulated cultural traditions of their ancestors with the land- and seascapes of the Sea Islands. The ecological similarities of Sierra Leone’s coastal region facilitated the importation of African traditions into what became South Carolina, thus resulting in land-based cultural practices that can be defined in an unexpected way as indigenous (Reardon and TallBear 2012). The Gullah Geechee disrupts the dichotomy of traditional or historical indigeneity and diasporic identity (Clifford 2001, Yeh 2007). They are diasporic and also situated in a particular place. De jure sovereignty is not the reality but rather de facto assertions of belonging to the land. Rather than a biological hybridization inheritance analysis, my research uses a geographical and social type of co-constitution to illustrate Gullah Geechee indigenous articulation in the Americas (Ng'weno 2007, Sturm 2002). Rising from the legacies of the American South, the Gullah Geechee secured land abandoned after the civil war legally and through community sanctions.
