We provide descriptions of the physical landscape, the regional setting and its history, and the refuge setting, including its history, current administration, programs, and specifi c refuge resources. Much of what we describe below refl ects the refuge environment as it was in 2007. Since that time, we have been writing, compiling and reviewing this document. As such, some minor changes likely occurred to local conditions or refuge programs as we continued to implement under current management. However, we do not believe those changes appreciably affect what we present below. The Physical Landscape Watershed Our project area is part of the Chesapeake Bay watershed, a drainage basin of 64,000 square miles encompassing parts of the states of Delaware, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia. The waters of that basin fl ow into the Chesapeake Bay, the nation’s largest estuary. The watershed contains an array of habitat types, including mixed hardwood forests typical of the Appalachian Mountains, grasslands and agricultural fi elds, lakes, rivers, and streams, wetlands and shallow waters, and open water in tidal rivers and the estuary. That diversity supports more than 2,700 species of plants and animals, including Service trust resources such as endangered or threatened species, migratory birds, and anadromous fi sh (www.fws.gov/chesapeakebay/ coastpgm.htm).

    The President’s Message At Germanna Community College, we know we must not waste our greatest resource--the potential of all of the people in our communities. That potential lies not only in the minds of the young, but in the untapped abilities of workers who must be retrained especially in fields where there will be high-wage jobs. An educated workforce creates a better economy for us all, translating into higher pay for local people and a better quality of life for their families, helping existing businesses be more profitable, attracting new employers from outside the area and helping to spawn start-up companies. An educated community makes for better citizens and brighter futures for all. With your support, Germanna will continue to expand to meet our communities’ needs. With your support, we will move forward with plans for a permanent campus in Stafford County and continue to seek ways to better serve Caroline and Madison County residents. With your support, we will continue to expand our Fredericksburg Campus in Spotsylvania, to grow our respected nursing program at our Locust Grove Campus in Orange County, offer new programs at our Daniel echnologyT Center in Culpeper and offer classes at Dahlgren. “Let us think of Germanna is working hard to respond quickly to provide students with the education as the knowledge, skills and attitude that lead to jobs that pay well and give local companies a competitive edge in a challenging global market. means of developing Nearly 80 percent of Germanna students remain in our area after our greatest abilities, completing their college work, investing the skills they’ve learned in their local communities.

  • Rappahannock Final ICL Report
    Defining the Rappahannock Indigenous Cultural Landscape Prepared By: Scott M. Strickland Julia A. King G. Anne Richardson Martha McCartney Virginia R. Busby With Contributions From: The Rappahannock Tribe of Virginia G. Anne Richardson, Chief Cochise Fortune Faye Fortune Colonel John Fortune (USA, ret.) Judith Fortune Mark Fortune Dana Mulligan Barbara B. Williams Prepared For: The National Park Service Chesapeake Bay The Chesapeake Conservancy Annapolis, Maryland The Rappahannock Tribe of Virginia Indian Neck, Virginia St. Mary’s College of Maryland St. Mary’s City, Maryland December 2016 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this project was to identify and represent the Rappahannock Indigenous Cultural Landscape between Port Royal/Port Conway and Urbanna, Virginia. The project was undertaken as an initiative of the National Park Service Chesapeake Bay office, which supports and manages the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail. The project was administered by the Chesapeake Conservancy and the fieldwork undertaken and report prepared by St. Mary’s College of Maryland. One of the goals of the Captain John Smith Trail is to interpret Native life in the Middle Atlantic in the earliest years of colonization by Europeans. The Indigenous Cultural Landscape (ICL) concept was developed as an important tool for identifying Native landscapes along the Smith Trail, both as they existed in the early 17th century and as they exist today. The Rappahannock River watershed was identified as a priority watershed area for ICL mapping in 2015. For this project, then, the mapping effort assembled a mix of qualitative and quantitative data, including tribal and non-tribal stakeholder input, documentary research, and archaeological, environmental, and ecological evidence.

  • The Case of Phragmites Australis (Common Reed) Along the Rappahannock River Basin
    PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS OF INVASIVE SPECIES - THE CASE OF PHRAGMITES AUSTRALIS (COMMON REED) ALONG THE RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER BASIN Karen Owen George Mason University Dept of Geography and GeoInformation Science 4400 University Drive Fairfax, VA 22030 [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper uses statistical predictive analysis to explore likely locations in Essex County, Virginia for Phragmites Australis, an invasive wetland species that has expanded its range since 1960 to an additional 18 US States. Over forty geospatial factors were used in the analysis which generates a likelihood surface predicting where additional stands of this species may be expected. Factor metrics that reveal geospatial signatures from hotspot areas sharing similarities with those signatures from sampled data are compared using weighted likelihood, mean contribution, and contrast measures. Future research will test model accuracy through field investigation of the predicted high-likelihood locations, and examine hyperspectral vegetation indices for those areas. This research contributes to improved Phragmites detection methods using remote sensing and GIS technology. Phragmites australis overtaking a wetland Source: http://www.nps.gov/plants/alien/fact/pdf/phau1 ‐powerpoint.pdf INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES This research presents the results of a geospatial predictive analysis of the invasive species Phragmites australis [Cav.] Trin. ex Steud, or “common reed”, along the Rappahannock River, a region which overlays nine counties in Virginia where aerial surveys were taken in 2006 and 2007 by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation (VCUCES et al., 2007). The modeling tool inductively calculates the empirical relationship between the measured events, or sample data, and factors found in the environment by revealing spatial patterns (SPADAC, Inc., 2008).

The migrants arrived in northeastern North America and served as the donor culture for what eventually developed into Clovis tool-making technology.

One who was born in the Shenandoah Valley, who has dwelt there during the greater portion of hislife to the present, ‘ and who is by blood three-fourths German or German—Swiss, may doubtless be excused for writing aboutthe German Ele- ment in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. He may also be excused, perhaps, for regarding such a subject as naturally attractive, and for believing that it is well worthy of careful investigation. As a matter of fact, the field has proved most /7 fruitful: so much so that the writer has been surprised at the abundance and wealth of material that may be secured for historical, economical, sociological, political, religious, linguis- tic, and even literary studies. He hastens to say, however, for the reassurance of the reader, that he has not attempted to follow out all these lines of investigation in the present treatise: what he has attempted is merely a plain, unvarnished picture of the people in their homes, in their churches, in their schools, in their fields and workshops, and in the larger re- lations of church and state as affected by peace and war.
