  • Oconee Hill Cemetery
    OCONEE HILL CEMETERY: ENVISIONING A LIVING LANDSCAPE by JUDSON SHEPPARD ABBOTT (Under the Direction of Eric MacDonald) ABSTRACT Oconee Hill Cemetery is an important historic landscape in the city of Athens, Georgia. However, management issues during the past decades have decreased its relevance to the local community. This thesis seeks to discover appropriate strategies to improve the current management approach at the cemetery. In order to do this, the thesis explores important background information such as the landscape’s historical context, its current management structure, and current management issues. It also studies the opinions and values of current managers and cemetery visitors. Finally, it reviews successful management models that other cemetery management teams have adopted. By overlaying these threads of information, the thesis isolates a number of appropriate and feasible strategies for Oconee Hill’s future management. Included in these recommendations are changes to the cemetery’s current management structure, an increased focus on public outreach, and the adoption of a master plan.

  • 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.
