Abstract:
This special issue of Pacific Historical Review, “Crossroads of Indo-Pacific Environmental Histories,” is guest edited by Gregory A. Barton and Brett M. Bennett. The special issue explores how environmental historians can use the concept of the Indo-Pacific to understand both the deep and contemporary histories of regions that are frequently viewed through Indian Ocean world or Pacific Ocean world perspectives. A preface and this introduction provide a theoretical overview, establishing some of the key temporal, spatial, and causal parameters of the Indo-Pacific. The following articles by Timothy P. Barnard, by Ruth Morgan, and by Gregory Barton and Brett Bennett highlight how local and foreign powers have sought to control the Indo-Pacific’s natural resources to shape new economies, ecologies, and polities within the region during the past two centuries. Broadly, the special issue encourages other historians to engage with the Indo-Pacific concept due to its theoretical depth as well as its relevance to contemporary geopolitical affairs.

Abstract:
Contract histories of organizations pose special challenges for public historians. Carefully worded contracts can establish procedures and guarantees that safeguard the historian’s independence. Such safeguards can help the historian capture as much as possible from the sponsored research for the history profession, while also completing a work that satisfies the needs of the sponsoring organization. The successful completion of such a project requires a reasonable deadline, a well-organized book, and an author or team of authors with special knowledge of the organization. Well-designed organizational histories have much to contribute to our understanding of historical efforts to balance the demand for energy with the need for a cleaner environment. Viewing events from inside corporations, regulatory agencies, and citizens’ groups, the historian can reconstruct the interaction of the key players who shaped our energy/environmental history.

Abstract:
Explaining variation between individuals is a central concept in ecology. Phenotypic variation is the product of genes, environments and their interactions. In contrast to genotypes which are fixed within individuals, environments vary considerably in time and space and have measurable effects on phenotypic quality between and within individuals. The aim of the current work was to identify environmental sources of life-history variation in a wild population of the great tit. The size of Thiessen polygons formed around c. 8000 nestboxes occupied over a 41 year period was used to estimate breeding density at the level of the individual. Linear mixed modelling showed that birds breeding in large territories laid more eggs and produced heavier fledglings that were more likely to survive to breed, than those in smaller territories. Systematic capping of territory sizes revealed that birds breeding in territories more than 2ha in size were unconstrained by density. This method of measuring individual density identified important relationships between density and life-histories and allowed for the accurate separation of other environmental effects usually confounded by density. For example, the life-histories and breeding density of woodland passerines often both vary with distance from the woodland edge. Using the Thiessen polygons to control for density we were able to independently examine edge effects on life-histories. Results confirmed higher density at edges and independently showed that birds near the woodland edge tended to lay smaller clutches of larger eggs later in the season, than birds away from the edge, probably due differences in habitat quality. A further use of Thiessen polygons was to determine the scale at which to measure oak availability in the vicinity of each occupied nestbox. Birds breeding in oak rich polygons laid larger clutches, earlier in the season and had heavier nestlings than birds in oak poor polygons, independently of density and edge effects. What's more, including oaks in life-history models, reduced or eliminated the effect of the Thiessen polygons, suggesting that density dependent life-histories are to some extent explained by reduced oak availability at high density. Clutch size, fledgling mass and recruitment were also found to correlate with local soil calcium. Analyses performed at several spatial scales found the greatest effect of calcium at scales of c.500m. This figure may indicate the average distance females were travelling to obtain calcium rich food during periods of high demands. That breeding environments strongly affect life-histories has been demonstrated by the above work. However, no correlations were found between natal environment and the subsequent life-histories of recruited individuals, probably due to high mortality in great tits, which favours current condition over any character that conveys benefits later in life. This result shows that long-term effects of rearing environments cannot be assumed as it depends on the life-history conditions under which they are found. The results of this study suggest a pervasive role of fine-scale environment variation in determining the life-histories of individual great tits. Moreover, the study demonstrates the efficacy of GIS to model such variation and applying it to explaining life-history variation in long-term databases.

Abstract:
Ecotourism is a rapidly growing global export industry that aims to uphold the ethics of responsible tourism by engaging with local communities and encouraging environmentally conscious travel. With existing critiques of the greenwashing of ecotourism and the tendency for tourism agencies to exploit host communities, I advocate for participatory community-based models of ecotourism. This thesis explores both the material and conceptual benefits of community-based ecotourism through the critical examination of community-based ecotourism projects in Rio de Janeiro Brazil. Focusing on the implementation of ecotourism in of some of Rio de Janeiro’s peripheral communities, areas that are impacted by social and spatial marginalization, this thesis argues that the cultural and environmental history of a location are inseparable. When ecotourism is participatory and community-based, it can be a method for sharing cultural and environmental knowledge. Exploring the parallels between environmental justice toxic tourism and community-based ecotourism, this thesis examines the extent to which ecotourism can be used as a tool for social justice, serving to valorize the land histories and lived experiences of communities. Beyond generating money for host communities, the case studies of participatory ecotourism demonstrate the potential for ecotourism to serve as a platform for advocating for land rights in historically marginalized communities.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Environmental deterioration is increasing, thereby compelling greater human concern for the earth's natural resources. A necessary response might be the establishment of an environmental ethic through the development of effective goal-orientated projects which can support the old adage or phrase saying, prevention is better than cure. Formal education can play an important role in the development of a critical consciousness amongst learners. However, this endeavour requires adjustments in teaching methods and techniques. My study - which focuses on the establishment of an environmental ethic within learners and the community, by starting an environmental club - is an attempt to respond to this challenge. Action-research, a research method which responds to the positive impulses of environmental education, was a research method used in this study to reflect critically on the quality of the environment in which we are living. Initially my study concentrated on learners and members from a historically disadvantaged community. Critical reflection on the first phase of my project revealed that the position adopted by me as a research-worker, was positivistic. A lack of perseverance in performing the grass-root actions, especially where it concerned me as researcher during the first phase, caused my efforts to establish an environmental club to fail. The opportunity to work with learners who really attempted to establish a better environment through involvement in simple projects, was implemented with greater enthusiasm in the second phase of the project. Although the predominant socio-economic conditions in the community involved in the project affected the environmental projects, this study serves as a case study which can give direction to similar studies conducted in the future.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Toenemende omgewingsagteruitgang noodsaak 'n groter menslike besorgdheid met betrekking tot natuurlike hulpbronne. Die daarstelling van 'n omgewingsetiek deur die ontwikkeling van doelgerigte projekte wat die ou gesegde voorsorg voorkom nasorg kan ondersteun, is nodig. Formele onderwys kan in dié opsig 'n belangrike rol speel in die ontwikkeling van 'n kritiese ingesteldheid by leerders, maar hierdie strewe verg aanpassings in onderrigmetodes en -tegnieke. My navorsing, wat op die daarstelling van 'n omgewingsetiek by leerders en die gemeenskap deur die stigting van 'n omgewingsklub fokus, is 'n poging om op hierdie uitdaging te reageer. Aksie-navorsing, 'n navorsingsmetode wat meer as net gehoor gee aan die positiewe impulse van omgewingsopvoeding, is as 'n navorsingsmetode gebruik waardeur daar gepoog is om op 'n kritiese manier te besin oor die kwaliteit van die omgewing waarin ons ons bevind. In my studie is daar gekonsentreer op leerders vanuit 'n histories agtergeblewe gemeenskap. 'n Kritiese terugskouing op die eerste fase van die projek, het die allesoorheersende posisie van my as navorser ten opsigte van die uitvoering van die navorsingsprojek aangedui. Hierdie posisie kan as positivisties beskryf word. 'n Gebrek aan deursettingsvermoë, veral van die kant van my as navorser in die uitvoering van voetsooiaksies, het veroorsaak dat my poging tot die daarstelling van 'n omgewingsklub met die eerste fase, grootliks gefaal het. Die geleentheid om met leerders te werk wat werklik 'n poging aangewend het om 'n beter omgewing daar te stel deur betrokkenheid in eenvoudige projekte, is met groter entoesiasme in die tweede fase van die projek ontvang. Alhoewel die heersende sosio-ekonomiese omstandighede van die gemeenskap waarbinne die projek ontplooi het, 'n uitwerking op die omgewingsaksies gehad het, dien hierdie navorsing ook as 'n rigtinggewende maatstafvir soortgelyke navorsing in die toekoms.

Full text
Abstract:
Improving seismic hazard analysis is an important part of building safer structures and protecting lives. Since large magnitude earthquakes are rarer than other earthquakes, it is harder to model seismic hazards such as lateral spread displacements for these events. Engineers are often required to extrapolate current lateral spreading models when designing utilities, bridges, and piers to withstand the ground displacements caused by earthquakes with magnitudes larger than 8.0. This study uses three case histories from the Maule Chile 2010 earthquake (Mw =8.8) to develop recommendations on which models are most accurate for large earthquake events and how to improve the accuracy of the models. Six empirical models commonly used in engineering practice are compared. The model that best matches the Maule Chile case histories uses local attenuation relationships to make it easier to apply the model to any seismic region. Models that use lab data from cyclic shear tests over predict displacements but using a strain-reduction factor with depth significantly improved the accuracy of the results. Site-to-source distances can vary greatly between geographic seismic and faulting mechanisms. For this reason, models that depend on an internal source-to-site distance show less promise with large subduction zone earthquakes throughout the world. Models with site-to-source distances are most accurate in the western United States and Japan because the case histories for these models came from those countries.

Abstract:
Though some researchers have argued that the Big Barrens grasslands of Kentucky were the product of anthropogenic land clearing practices by Native Americans, heretofore, this hypothesis had not been tested archaeologically. More work was needed to refine chronologies of fire activity in the region, determine the extent to which humans played a role in the process, and integrate these findings with the paleoenvironmental and archaeological record. With these goals in mind, I conducted archaeological and geoarchaeological investigations at Crumps Sink in the Sinkhole Plain of Kentucky. The archaeological record and site formation history of Crumps Sink were compared with environmental and archaeological data from the Interior Low Plateaus and Southern Appalachian Mountains for an understanding of how the site fits into the larger story of human-environmental interactions in the Eastern Woodlands. Based on the data recovered, I argue that through land burning Archaic hunter-gatherers were active managers of ecosystems to a greater degree than previously acknowledged. Excavations at Crumps Sink revealed stratified archaeological deposits spanning the late Middle Archaic to Terminal Late Archaic periods. Radiocarbon dates and an analysis of projectile point typologies provided information on the chronological and cultural history of the site. Magnetic susceptibility, loss-on-ignition, plant available phosphorous, and soil micromorphological analyses were conducted to examine landform dynamics in response to environmental change and to trace the anthropogenic signature created by human activities at the site. Masses of lithic debitage, animal bone, and burned sediment nodules per ten-cm-level provide an indication of human occupation intensity and shifting activities over time. Radiocarbon dates were used to reconstruct rates of sediment accumulation in the sink. These varying datasets were considered together for a holistic understanding of localized environmental and anthropogenic impacts on the landform. Between 7200 and 5600 cal. BP, during the Middle Holocene Thermal Maximum and corresponding with the late Middle Archaic period, sediment accumulation was sustained with one identifiable episode of very weak soil development. Background magnetic and chemical signatures in the soils were greater than they were at pre-occupation levels, demonstrating that human activities left a lasting imprint in soils as early as the late Middle Archaic period. Between 5600 and 3900 cal. BP, periods of diminished sedimentation led to more pronounced episodes of soil formation. However, these soil horizons are interposed by pulses of enhanced sediment accumulation. These soil data may signal shifting environmental regimes during the Middle to Late Holocene transition. Between 5600 and 3900 cal. BP scattered plant ash, elevated masses of burned sediment nodules, and pestle fragments in Late Archaic deposits suggest that hunter-gatherers were intensively processing nut mast, potentially in association with early forest clearance and silviculture. Botanical assemblages from a coincident archaeological sequence at the Carlston Annis site in the nearby middle Green River region has demonstrated woodland disturbance and potential silviculture in central Kentucky during this time. During the Late Archaic and Terminal Late Archaic periods (3900-3000 cal. BP), substantial plant ash deposition occurred in a stratum that accumulated relatively quickly. Very low burned sediment nodule masses in this deposit indicate that combustion features were not common in the immediate vicinity and that elevated frequencies of plant ash were the result of burning on a broader expanse of the surrounding landform. Chronologically, the zone with enhanced plant ash deposition is coeval with previously demonstrated occurrences of increased forest fires, grassland expansion, and a shift to early horticultural economies throughout the region. Soil development occurred after 3000 cal. BP, and this episode of landform stability may have lasted for over two millennia until being capped by sediment accumulation from historic agriculture. The late Middle Archaic through Terminal Late Archaic data from Crumps Sink demonstrate that hunter-gatherer activities left lasting signatures in soils in Kentucky. The data from the Late Archaic to Terminal Late Archaic periods (ca. 5600-3000 cal. BP) may indicate intentional land burning by hunter-gatherers to create anthropogenic environments, first for silviculture and then for early plant domestication. This forces a rethinking of labor and subsistence systems within hunter-gatherer societies. Thus, if hunter-gatherers were utilizing long-term forest management methods, they were employing a delayed-return economic system relying on labor investment and negotiated understandings about land tenure. Further characterization of the origin of fire management activities will help us to elucidate the nature of incipient indigenous plant domestication in the Eastern Woodlands.

Full text
Abstract:
Freshwater ecosystems are subject to a wide variety of stressors, which can have complex interactions and result in ecological surprises. Non-native fish introductions have drastically reduced the number of naturally fishless lakes and have resulted in cascading food web repercussions in aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Additional anthropogenic influences that result from increases in global airborne emissions also threaten wildlife habitat. Atmospheric nitrogen deposition has been recognized as an anthropogenic contributor to acidification and eutrophication of wilderness ecosystems. Planktonic communities have shown declines in response to predation and shifts in composition as a result of nutrient inputs and acidification, both of which are potential fates of nitrogen deposition. This study identified the response of zooplankton communities from two lakes (fish present vs. absent) in Mount Rainier National Park to manipulations simulating an episodic disturbance event in mesocosms. The experiment used a 2 x 2 factorial design with acid and nitrogen treatments. Treatments resulted in significantly elevated nitrogen and decreased pH conditions from control mesocosms over 42 days, indicating that the treatment effects were achieved. Results indicate that zooplankton communities from lakes with different food web structure respond differently to the singular effects of acid and nitrogen addition. Surprisingly, the interaction of the two stressors was related to increases in community metrics (e.g., abundance, biomass, body size, richness, and Shannon-Weiner diversity) for both lake types. This work can aid management decisions as agencies look to restore more aquatic montane habitats to their historic fishless states, and assess their abilities to recover and afford resistance to atmospheric pollution.

As experiências, individuais e coletivas, no lugar articulam-se formando a matriz de ancoragem para a construção dos significados da paisagem. De outro modo, representa a forma como nos relacionamos com o ambiente, expressando nossas vivências nos lugares. Neste contexto, a migração, enquanto deslocamento fisico, impõe grandes desafios de adaptação aos migrantes. Revelar os significados das paisagens possibilita compreendermos a relação destes com os lugares. Este trabalho apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa empírica que procurou interpretar os significados da paisagem de três famílias migrantes, do norte ao sul do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, em três gerações, a fim de compreender as relações entre seus pares e o lugar. Discute‐se o método utilizado - história de vida familiar - destacando seu percurso de construção e seus potenciais enquanto método de pesquisa. Apresenta a composição das histórias de vida famíliar, evidenciando todo o percurso migratório da família, suas nuances, tramas e sentidos atribuídos aos lugares por onde passaram. Interpreta os significados da paisagem, considerando os contextos da história de vida famliar. Os resultados evidenciam que a paisagem é polissêmica, sendo constantemente resignificada pelos migrantes. Neste processo são levados em consideração o contexto ontogenético (fase da vida), ambiental e social em que a paisagem é rememorada. Desta forma, as leituras sobre a paisagem significada mostram-se vitais às praticas interventivas ambientais e educativas.
Individual and group experiences at a place articulate themselves forming the ground where the landscape meanings are both built from and attached to. In other words, this ground represents the way people relate to the environment by expressing their local life experiences. In this context, displacements carried out by migration events impose a challenge for the migrants own adaptations. By acquainting the landscape meanings, one can understand the relationships of the migrants with the places where they are. In this work I attempted to interpret the landscape meanings of three generations belonging to three different migrant families, from north to south Rio Grande do Sul State, aiming to understand the relationships between the people and their place of living. This study used the "family histories" working method, which is discussed and has its potentials as a research method highlighted in this work. The study also presents the families' history composition, showing their migration routes, nuances, and the feelings assigned to the places they passed by. Finally, this work interprets the landscape meanings taking into account families' history context. Results show a multi-sense landscape which is constantly re-worked by the migrants. Ontogeny (life phases), environment, and social contexts play a role in this process. Thus, the understanding of the landscape meanings are a vital step to the educational and environmental practices.
