Abstract:
This paper tests existing models of coastal subsistence strategies and settlement patterns of the late prehistoric inhabitants of the Southeastern U.S. Atlantic coastal plain. Excavations at Grove's Creek Site (09CH71), Skidaway Island, Georgia were conducted to determine the season of occupation of the site. Paleoethnobotanical and zooarchaeological data were used to determine the subsistence strategies of the inhabitants. Stable isotope analysis of oyster shells is combined with the faunal and botanical data to determine the seasons of occupation of the site. The most notable discovery was the diversity of agricultural plants. Paleoethnobotanical data indicate a spring through autumn occupation, and the stable isotope data indicate winter through summer. Faunal data suggest occupation from spring through early winter. Therefore, the site was occupied year-round. This information, coupled with other data from the Southeastern U.S. Atlantic Coast, suggests a revision to existing subsistence and settlement pattern models. Coastal peoples lived in permanent villages and relied on a mix of agriculture, hunting, fishing, and gathering. Short trips were likely made to procure some resources, but there was not an extensive seasonal round.

Abstract:
Population growth patterns are linked to almost all the challenges that humanity faces, including the scarcity of adequate sites for human and environmental development. Thus, in the coastal zone of Puntal Del Chifre, many areas have given way to disordered urban occupation. The present study aims to evaluate the changes in land use and occupation occurring in the Puntal Del Horn located in the municipality of Olinda / PE, between 1975 and 2014, through the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques. The results point to a significant increase in the urban area and decrease of the vegetation area.

Abstract:
Oceanic islands are biotically fragile environments prone to suffer irreversible anthropogenic disturbances. The growth of the human population and the intensive occupation of the coastline are the cause of great ecological pressure on global insular coastal ecosystems. We review the current situation and future scenarios on a paradigmatic oceanic archipelago (Canary Islands, NE Atlantic Ocean), as a case study of the human footprint on marine coastal communities. The role of humans is pivotal, as we directly affect patterns of coastal occupation, pollution, invasive species or fishing. Here we synthesize the information that describes the current situation of the coastal ecosystems of the Canary Islands, indicating the main sources of environmental conflict and impacts. In addition, we review the state of the most relevant or threatened habitats and the taxonomic groups as actors of the main disturbances in the coastal ecosystems of the archipelago. We propose future general scenarios about expected changes, and foreseeable interactions that could occur to transform the coastal environments of the islands, in order to indicate areas susceptible to improvement for the conservation of these ecosystems. Integrative coastal actions are urgently needed for sustainable future scenarios to oppose deleterious trends such as tropicalization, fisheries collapse and extensive coastal degradation due to urbanization and infrastructure construction.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe Alaska Peninsula is a landscape defined by volcanic, tectonic, and glacial processes, and life throughout is conditioned on the interactions among them. During the middle Holocene (ca. 4100–3600 yr ago), intense caldera-forming eruptions of the Aniakchak and Veniaminof volcanoes changed the shape of the central portion of the Peninsula dramatically, and had significant and perhaps devastating impacts on both terrestrial and marine biota. Here we evaluate the severity of these impacts by tracking human settlement patterns using 75 unique radiocarbon (14C) age determinations on buried cultural features from the central Alaska Peninsula. Coastal regions were re-colonized within a few hundred years while river systems most proximate to the volcanoes were uninhabited for up to 1500 years following the most severe eruptions. Patterns of human settlement may also document previously unrecorded landscape change throughout the region, and further contribute to our understanding of post-volcanic ecological succession.

Abstract:
The knowledge of the temporal and spatial dynamics in the composition of fish fauna makes it possible to identify patterns of occupation of ecosystems, providing a basis for evaluation and preservation of the local biodiversity. Monthly samplings were carried out at seven sites in a coastal lagoon, using a casting net, dip net and beach seine. A total of 4,110 individuals were collected, distributed in 23 families and 49 taxa of fish, with a predominance of Mugilliza, M.curema, Atherinellabrasiliensis, Micropogoniasfurnieri and Eucinostomusargenteus, corresponding to more than 80% total weight of all individuals caught. Regarding seasonality, greater abundances were recorded in fall, influenced by the high abundance of A.brasiliensis in this period. In addition to fall, this species was also abundant in summer. However, this pattern of dominance was different for the families Mugilidae and Gerreidae, with higher abundances in spring and summer, respectively. The highest abundances were found in the southern section of the lagoon, which are related to the high abundance of A.brasiliensis, M.liza and M.curema. In relation to the indices of average taxonomic distinctness and variation in the taxonomic distinctness, no significant differences were detected between the seasons of the year. Thus, the patterns of distribution and occurrence of fish in the lagoon were consistent with the patterns observed in Brazilian coastal lagoons and estuaries, as well as to the coastal shallow areas of the southeastern and southern regions.

Abstract:
Ports are an important type of land use in coastal cities, and the development of ports has a significant influence on the spatial pattern of land use in port cities. However, the research focusing on economic indicators hardly reflects the process of changes in the spatial distribution of land development in coastal port cities. This paper introduces a spatial association rule method to establish a coastline and land development intensity (CLDI) model and land use transfer (LUT) model in the vertical direction of coastal zones to mine the association rules between shoreline change and land development intensity along the sea–land gradient in the Qingdao and Yantai coastal zones and to explore the important land development sequence patterns. The results showed that, in the early stage of regional development, the land development intensity decreased from sea to land. In the later stage, as the industry transferred to nearby towns, the land units with extremely strong and strong levels started to move to the end or middle of the sequence. With the improvement of the urban construction level, the simple LUT pattern sequence that increased building land through the occupation of cultivated land and forestland was replaced gradually by complex sequences with multiple components. The relationship between land development and distance from the port showed that the areas with strong land development intensity gradually moved from coastal to inland areas over time. Port shipping has a profound influence on port city land use patterns. Industrial transfer drives the development of surrounding towns during the metaphase. This trend was used to build a second port to realize the division of transportation capacity, as the old port’s carrying capacity tended to become saturated. This paper revealed the general changes in the important land use patterns in port areas through a comparative study of the Qingdao and Yantai port areas and the differences among different geographical locations and development processes. This study provides a reference for the rational planning of coastal zone spatial layouts and provides a model basis for the analysis of the spatial structure of coastal zones. This information can be used to coordinate the relationship between ports and cities and promote the sustainable development of coastal zones.

Abstract:
This paper presents a heterarchical model for the regional occupation of the sambaqui (shellmound) societies settled in the southern coast of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Interdisciplinary approaches articulate the geographical scope and environmental dynamics of the Quaternary with human occupation patterns that took place therein between the middle and late Holocene (approximately 7.5 to 1.5 ky BP). The longue durée perspective on natural and social processes, as well as landscape construction, evince stable, integrated, and territorially organized communities around the lagoon setting. Funerary patterns, as well as mound distribution in the landscape, indicate a rather equalitarian society, sharing the economic use of coastal resources in cooperative ways. This interpretation is reinforced by a common ideological background involving the cult of the ancestors, which seems widespread all over the southern Brazilian shores along that period of time. Such a long-lived cultural tradition has endured until the arrival of fully agricultural Je and Tupi speaking societies in the southern shores.

Abstract:
Curaumilla-1 presents the earliest date for Archaic coastal occupation and marine exploitation in central Chile (8,500 years B. P.). The remains of marine invertebrates from this site at Punta Curaumilla were studied. The number of present species, minimum number of individuals for 14 species, and mean sizes of two of these species were established. Recent studies have demonstrated that modern shellfish gatherers are important modifiers of rocky-intertidal communities in central Chile. Consequently, we attempt here to define the probable ecological role of past people at Punta Curaumilla as shellfish gatherers. The molluscan species present at Curaumilla-1 are much the same as those exploited at present by shellfish gatherers in central Chile. Two pulses of occupation were identified within the Archaic and Early Ceramic periods respectively. During these events it is likely that Precolumbian people may have temporarily or permanently modified sectors of the rocky intertidal at Punta Curaumilla.

Abstract:
The main goal of this study was to investigate how climate and human activities may have influenced ecotonal areas of disjoint savannas within Brazilian Amazonia. The fossil pollen and charcoal records of Lake Márcio (Amapá) were used to provide a Holocene palaeoecological history of this region. Detrended correspondence analysis (DCA) was used to enhance the patterns of sample distribution along the sediment core. A marked vegetation change from closed forests with swamp elements to open flooded savanna at c. 5000 yrs BP was evident from the pollen record. Charcoal analysis revealed a pattern of increased accumulation of particles coincident with the establishment of savannas, suggesting higher fire frequency and human impacts near the lake. A 550-year sedimentary hiatus suggests that the lake depended heavily on floodwaters from the Amazon River, and that it became suddenly isolated from it. When sedimentation restarted in the lake, the environment had changed. A combination of factors, such as reduced river flooding, palaeofires and human occupation may have had a tremendous impact on the environment. As there are no other major changes in vegetation, after 4700 yrs BP, it is plausible to assume that the modern mosaic vegetation formed at that time.

Esta tesis se formula desde la hipótesis de que el litoral es un territorio singular con características propias que propician la localización de usos concretos y el desarrollo de modelos de ocupación territorial específicos que, como tales, deberían ser estudiados y considerados dentro de la ordenación territorial. El análisis del crecimiento de población y vivienda en las provincias costeras desde inicios del siglo XX permite cuantificar la incidencia que el turismo ha tenido en la transformación del territorio litoral. La mapificación de las transformaciones urbanas ocurridas a partir de medidos del siglo XX en la franja costera que va desde Portbou a Ayamonte permite caracterizar las formas de crecimiento del litoral. A partir de estas formas se identifican los patrones de ocupación litorales característicos de una nueva ciudad difusa construida de forma masiva sobre el borde del mar, por y para la actividad turística, una actividad generadora de urbanidad con unas condiciones diferentes a la de la ciudad tradicional
This thesis is founded upon the hypothesis that the coastline is a unique territory with particular features that lead to specific uses and to the development of specific land-use models, which, given this specificity, should be viewed within the framework of spatial planning. The analysis of population and housing growth in Spanish coastal provinces since the early twentieth century Purificación permits the quantifying of tourism’s impact upon the transformation of the coastal territory. The mapping of urban transformations in the coastal strip, from Portbou to Ayamonte, during the second half of the twentieth century permits the characterization of the forms of coastal growth. And from these forms of growth it is possible to identify the characteristic occupation patterns of a new form of dispersed coastal city constructed on a massive scale on the coastline, by and for tourism; it as an activity that creates a form of urbanism with conditions vastly different than those of the traditional city.

Abstract:
On Perú’s North Coast, the earliest documented lithic traditions are collectively known as the El Palto Phase (~14,200-9600cal BP). This phase, which spans the Late Pleistocene to Early Holocene, contains evidence for several contemporary or overlapping traditions, including early unifacial assemblages, and the Fishtail and Paiján complexes. Recent study of El Palto phasesites in the lower Jequetepeque Valley focused on evaluating the relationships between these assemblages and the populations who manufactured them. The results of this study indicate a greater degree of intratype diversity among point types than previously recognized and call into question the descendant relationships between Fishtail and Paiján. The results from several long-term regional studies are combined with these analyses to provide new insight regarding early settlement and technological change in this region of the Central Andes.
En la costa norte del Perú, las tradiciones líticas más tempranas documentadas se conocen, en conjunto, como la fase El Palto (~14.200-9600 cal AP). Esta fase, que abarca desde el Pleistoceno Final hasta el Holoceno Temprano, contiene evidencias de varias tradiciones contemporáneas o que coinciden parcialmente en el tiempo, lo que incluye conjuntos unifaciales tempranos y los complejos Cola de Pescado y Paiján. Un reciente estudio de los sitios de la fase El Palto en el valle bajo de Jequetepeque se enfocó enla evaluación de los vínculos entre estos conjuntos y las poblaciones que los produjeron. Los resultados obtenidos indican un grado mayor de diversidad tipológica entre los tipos de puntas que lo que previamente se había reconocido y cuestionan las relaciones tecnológicas entre las tradiciones líticas Paiján y Cola de Pescado. Asimismo, los resultados de varios estudios regionales de largoplazo se combinan con estos análisis con el objeto de proporcionar una nueva comprensión acerca del asentamiento temprano y el cambio tecnológico en esta región de los Andes Centrales.

This thesis comprises a study of the inscription of father, son, and daughter figures in French films of the 1930s and of the Occupation. Using the tool of Lacanian psychoanalytic theory, Part One looks at the inscription of patriarchy and the positions allotted within it to mature men, young men and young women in classic poetic-realist texts and run-of-the-mill productions of the 1930s, in order to identify the latent collective tensions in the society of that period. Part Two compares the inscription of father, son and daughter figures, together with certain stylistic features and themes, in a variety of films of the Occupation with the paradigm derived from the foregoing analysis, in order to qualify the widely held view that French films changed little between 1929 and 1945.

Abstract:
This dissertation illustrates, experimentally, how the voting patterns of a population can be changed by an informative presentation. In 1979 an occupational tax was brought before the citizens of Atlanta, Georgia and it was voted down. There are many indications that this tax would be an excellent source of income for a city such as Atlanta. Because of certain factors, a new source of income for public education will be needed through the eighties and nineties, particularly for regions of the country like Georgia. Some of the factors that will influence educational finance are: 1. changes in the Federal Government's finance policy to public schools, 2. The influences from pressure groups on financing public education, 3. The projected future funding for public education, and finally, why should professional educators be concerned with a topic as political as changing voting patterns? Two groups of people from Atlanta were given an instrument designed to determine if they would vote for or against the occupation tax. The first group was given the instrument without any type of briefing beforehand and the second group was given a presentation before completing the instrument. The presentation showed the many benefits of the occupation tax to people who live in Atlanta. The first group (control) voted against the tax and the second group (experimental) voted for the tax. This experiment illustrated that voting patterns of a population could be changed by an informative presentation. It is hoped that this dissertation will add to the factual knowledge that educators need to know about voting patterns. It is also hoped that this paper makes the public aware of an alternative revenue for financing public education.

FundaÃÃo Cearense de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Cientifico e TecnolÃgico
The coastal plains are one of the most fragile ecosystems known, however, have the highest rate of use, occupation, urbanization and population density in the world. This fact demonstrates the need to require specific studies in this area so that your planning is done sustainably. Thus, the present thesis held in the coastal municipalities of Caucaia and Aquiraz, CearÃ, located in the metropolitan region of Fortaleza, aimed to analyze the socio-environmental dynamics of the coastal zone, assessing the levels of vulnerability to erosion of the site. The methodology was performed by monitoring the 12 points marked, in which they were made, field work with the realization of profiles transverse, measurements of height, period and direction of waves and sediment samples collected in the beach zone, dunes and frontal dunes to back morphoscopy and analysis granulometric, and survey data such as winds, rainfall, currents, temperature and tidal fluctuations. According to the results given that the coastal area studied had almost entirely, urbanization and occupation by tourist activities, and this in some specific environments have lower intensity due to unattractive and/or speculation has yet to be inserted so active on the beach. The evolution of the urban city of Caucaia occurred more intensely compared to the occupation of Aquiraz, even the latter has a history older than the first city, a fact proven by the characteristics social and economic. In the oceanographic aspects there was tidal amplitudes monthly maximum 3.1 minimum 2,3 m. In Caucaia the wave height ranged from 0,60 m to 2,10 m Aquiraz a variation of 1,5 m and 0,50 m wave predominance of type sea. The morphoscopy identified in dune environments and beach sediments matte and shiny, which demonstrate the existence of interaction between environments underwater and wind transport. As the modal states, the coast of Caucaia characterized by beaches with a tendency to intermediate stages, resulting in certain periods of the year in the reflective beach stages in Iparana and dissipative stages in Pacheco and IcaraÃ. Already in Aquiraz modal stages were also characterized by beaches tend to intermediate stages, only in getting internships reflective stages in Iguape. It was confirmed the retreat of the shoreline around the coastline studied based on the program DSAS 4.2, with rates ranging from -4,10 m/year to 0,35 m/year in Caucaia and -1,4 m/year to -0,25 m/year in Aquiraz. In view of the foregoing it was found that the coast of Caucaia showed average to high vulnerability to erosion taking place as a major problem in the forms of use and occupancy of interaction between environments of the coastal zone, while in Aquiraz was low to high along its entire length, with the most problematic areas of real estate speculation should be preserved. These implications may clarify why the erosion processes are more intense in coastal Caucaia in relation to coastal Aquiraz, mainly because of the position of the coastline, that is, how the elements studied oceanographic reached the coast, in the case, in coastal Caucaia these are much more intenseIt is concluded that, in comparative diagnosis of the two cities through the methodologies, the erosion indicators, the categories and morphodynamics that, the vulnerability to coastal together with conditions receding coast line and reduced sediment supply, is related mainly with the evolution of the occupation, the use and the forms of dynamic coastal area.
As planÃcies litorÃneas sÃo um dos ecossistemas mais frÃgeis conhecidos, que, no entanto, apresentam o maior Ãndice de uso, ocupaÃÃo, urbanizaÃÃo e densidade demogrÃfica em todo o mundo. Tal fato demonstra a necessidade dessa Ãrea requerer estudos especÃficos para que seu ordenamento seja feito de forma sustentÃvel. Dessa forma, a presente tese, realizada no litoral dos municÃpios de Caucaia e Aquiraz, CearÃ, localizados na regiÃo metropolitana de Fortaleza, teve como objetivo analisar a dinÃmica socioambiental da zona costeira, avaliando os Ãndices de vulnerabilidade à erosÃo do local. A metodologia foi realizada por meio do monitoramento de 12 pontos demarcados, nos quais foram feitos, trabalhos de campo com a realizaÃÃo de perfis transversais, mediÃÃes da altura, perÃodo e direÃÃo das ondas e coletas de amostras de sedimentos na faixa praial e campos de dunas mÃveis e frontais para posterior anÃlise granulomÃtrica e morfoscopia e levantamentos de dados como ventos, pluviometria, correntes, temperatura e oscilaÃÃes das marÃs. Nos resultados obtidos conferiu-se que, a zona costeira estudada apresentou em quase sua totalidade, ocupaÃÃo por urbanizaÃÃo e atividades turÃsticas, tendo esta em alguns pontos especÃficos menor intensidade devido possuir ambientes sem atrativos e/ou a especulaÃÃo imobiliÃria ainda nÃo ter se inserido de forma na praia. A evoluÃÃo urbana do municÃpio de Caucaia se deu de forma mais intensa se comparada à ocupaÃÃo de Aquiraz, mesmo esta Ãltima tendo um histÃrico mais antigo que a do primeiro municÃpio, fato comprovado pelas caracterÃsticas sociais e econÃmicas locais. Nos aspectos oceanogrÃficos verificou-se amplitudes de marÃs mensais com mÃximas de 3,1 m e mÃnimas de 2,3 m. Em Caucaia a altura da onda variou de 0,60 m a 2,10 m e em Aquiraz apresentou variaÃÃo de 1,5 m e 0,50 m e predominÃncia de ondas do tipo sea. A morfoscopia identificou nos ambientes dunares e praiais sedimentos foscos e brilhosos, o que constata a existÃncia da interaÃÃo entre ambientes de transportes eÃlicos e subaquÃticos. Conforme os estados modais, o litoral de Caucaia caracterizou-se com praias de tendÃncia a estÃgios intermediÃrios, obtendo em certos perÃodos do ano estÃgios reflexivos na praia de Iparana e estÃgios dissipativos nas praias de Pacheco e IcaraÃ. Jà em Aquiraz os estÃgios modais tambÃm caracterizaram-se por praias de tendÃncia a estÃgios intermediÃrios, obtendo estÃgios reflexivos apenas na praia do Iguape. Confirmou-se o recuo da linha de costa em todo o litoral analisado, com base no programa DSAS 4.2, com taxas entre -4,10 m/ano a 0,35 m/ano em Caucaia e de -1,4 a -0,25 em Aquiraz. Diante do que foi exposto constatou-se que o litoral de Caucaia apresentou vulnerabilidade mÃdia à alta à erosÃo tendo como problema maior no local as formas de uso e ocupaÃÃo dos ambientes de interaÃÃo entre a zona costeira, enquanto que em Aquiraz foi de baixa à alta em toda sua extensÃo, tendo como problemÃtica maior a especulaÃÃo imobiliÃria de Ãreas que deveriam ser preservadas. Tais implicaÃÃes podem esclarecer o porquà dos processos erosivos serem mais intensos no litoral de Caucaia em relaÃÃo ao litoral de Aquiraz, principalmente por causa da posiÃÃo da linha de costa, isto Ã, da forma como os elementos oceanogrÃficos chegam à costa estudada, no caso, no litoral de Caucaia estes sÃo bem mais intensos. Conclui-se que, no diagnÃstico comparativo dos dois municÃpios por meio das metodologias, dos indicadores erosivos e das categorizaÃÃes morfodinÃmicas que a vulnerabilidade costeira, em conjunto com as condiÃÃes de recuo da linha costa e a diminuiÃÃo do suprimento sedimentar, està relacionada, sobretudo, com a evoluÃÃo da ocupaÃÃo, das formas de uso e da dinÃmica costeira da Ãrea.

Larval supply is an important process linking reproductive output to recruitment of benthic marine invertebrates. Few species-specific studies of bivalve larvae have been performed due to the lack of suitable methods for species identification. This thesis focused on applying a method to identify larvae from field samples from Waquoit Bay, MA using shell birefringence patterns. This method was then used to address variability in larval supply for three bivalve species on weekly, tidal, and hourly scales. Sampling weekly for six months during two years showed large variability in larval concentrations on this time scale. Abundances of most species were related to bay temperature, and species distributions among sampling sites were indicative of transport potential and population coherence. Greater growth of larvae in 2009 compared to 2007 was attributed to more wind-induced mixing and better food availability in 2009. Integrative samples over each tidal event for a 14-day period demonstrated that larvae were mostly constrained by water masses. During a period when there were sharp tidal signals in temperature and salinity, larval concentrations were higher in bay water compared to coastal waters on incoming tides. After a storm event, water mass properties were less distinct between tidal events and a semidiurnal signal in larval concentrations was no longer apparent. The timing of periods of high larval concentrations did not always coincide with periods of highest water mass flux reducing net export in some cases. On an hourly scale, the vertical distribution of larvae affected by water column stratification and strength of tidal flow. Strong currents and a fresh upper layer both prevented larvae from concentrating at the surface. There was little evidence of peaks in larval concentrations associated with a given tidal period. Species-specific data can provide new perspectives on larval transport. For the three species studied, Anomia simplex, Guekensia demissa, and Mercenaria mercenaria, different source areas, patterns for growth, and potential for export were observed. Applying species-specific identification methods to future studies of bivalve larval transport has the potential to relate larval abundance to settlement patterns, an important component of larval ecology and shellfish management.

Full text
Abstract:
Coastal foredunes are topographically high features that can reduce vulnerability to storm-related flooding hazards. While the dominant aeolian, hydrodynamic, and ecological processes leading to dune growth and erosion are fairly well-understood, predictive capabilities of spatial variations in dune evolution on management and engineering timescales (days to years) remain relatively poor. In this work, monthly high-resolution terrestrial lidar scans were used to quantify topographic and vegetation changes over a 2.5 year period along a micro-tidal intermediate beach and dune. Three-dimensional topographic changes to the coastal landscape were used to investigate the relative importance of environmental, ecological, and morphological factors in controlling spatial and temporal variability in foredune growth patterns at two 50 m alongshore stretches of coast. Despite being separated by only 700 m in the alongshore, the two sites evolved differently over the study period. The northern dune retreated landward and lost volume, whereas the southern dune prograded and vertically accreted. The largest differences in dune response between the two sections of dunes occurred during the fall storm season, when each of the systems’ geomorphic and ecological properties modulated dune growth patterns. These findings highlight the complex eco-morphodynamic feedback controlling dune dynamics across a range of spatial scales.

Full text
Abstract:
This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the design and implementation of a wave model evaluation system, altWIZ, which uses wave height observations from operational satellite radar altimeters. The altWIZ system utilizes two recently released altimeter databases: Ribal and Young (2019) and European Space Agency Sea State Climate Change Initiative v.1.1 level 2 (Dodet et al. 2020). The system facilitates model evaluation against 1 Hz1 altimeter data or a product created by averaging altimeter data in space and time around model grid points. The system allows, for the first time, quantitative analysis of spatial model errors within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wave Information Study (WIS) 30+ year hindcast for coastal United States. The system is demonstrated on the WIS 2017 Atlantic hindcast, using a 1/2° basin scale grid and a 1/4° regional grid of the East Coast. Consistent spatial patterns of increased bias and root-mean-square-error are exposed. Seasonal strengthening and weakening of these spatial patterns are found, related to the seasonal variation of wave energy. Some model errors correspond to areas known for high currents, and thus wave-current interaction. In conjunction with the model comparison, additional functions for pairing altimeter measurements with buoy data and storm tracks have been built. Appendices give information on the code access (Appendix I), organization and files (Appendix II), example usage (Appendix III), and demonstrating options (Appendix IV).

Abstract:
For many decades in Tunisia, there has been a robust link between natural resource management and contentious national and local politics. These disputes manifest in the form of protests, sit-ins, the disruption of production and distribution and legal suits on the one hand, and corporate and government response using coercive and concessionary measures on the other. Residents of resource-rich areas and their allies protest the inequitable distribution of their local natural wealth and the degradation of their health, land, water, soil and air. They contest a dynamic that tends to bring greater benefit to Tunisia’s coastal metropolitan areas. Natural resource exploitation is also a source of livelihoods and the contentious politics around them have, at times, led to somewhat more equitable relationships. The most important actors in these contentious politics include citizens, activists, local NGOs, local and national government, international commercial interests, international NGOs and multilateral organisations. These politics fit into wider and very longstanding patterns of wealth distribution in Tunisia and were part of the popular alienation that drove the uprising of 2011. In many ways, the dynamic of the contentious politics is fundamentally unchanged since prior to the uprising and protests have taken place within the same month of writing of this paper. Looking onto this scene, commentators use the frame of margins versus centre (‘marginalization’), and also apply the lens of labour versus capital. If this latter lens is applied, not only is there continuity from prior to 2011, there is continuity with the colonial era when natural resource extraction was first industrialised and internationalised. In these ways, the management of Tunisia’s natural wealth is a significant part of the country’s serious political and economic challenges, making it a major factor in the street politics unfolding at the time of writing.
