Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2020 ABSTRACT This study examines Native American marine resource management as a coastal adaptation in Rhode Island. It argues that marine resource management techniques were developed by indigenous people between the Archaic and the Late Woodland period, and uses Rhode Island’s salt pond region as a case study. It then looks at how European settlement altered Native American coastal adaptations and changed marine resource management through commodification and eventually loss of access to subsistence bases.

The refuge contains 407 acres and borders Ninigret Pond, a salt pond located behind a barrier beach and open to Block Island Sound via a breachway. The refuge comprises a diversity of habitat types. Grassland, forest, shrubland, wooded swamp and barrier beach combine to create an interspersion and diversity of resources for many wildlife species. The refuge contains approximately 3 miles of shoreline on Ninigret Pond and provides habitat for numerous waterfowl species. Black ducks, mallards, Canada geese, and diving ducks winter in large numbers on the pond. Bald and golden eagles, ospreys, and many other raptors can be observed on the refuge. Common terns breed on a refuge island in the pond. Visitor use is greatest during the summer months from tourists seeking the cool shore breezes and ocean water.
