Abstract:

In the last two decades, South Carolina's Latino population has more than quadrupled, from less than 31,000 individuals in 1990 to over 139,000 in 2005 (U.S. Census Bureau). This increased Latino presence in South Carolina has made the need for services to Spanish speakers more noticeable and significant to policy makers, academics, and the general population. The quote in the title comes from a clinic worker who explained that getting it "sort of right" with Spanish-speaking patients can cause harm. In recognition of this rising Latino presence, and the need to "get it right" in South Carolin

This article uses the R. G. Dun and Company credit ratings to analyze North Carolina black businessmen and their firms in the fifteen years following the Civil War. When combined with data in local histories and in the federal census, the credit ratings reveal how the postbellum black business community, especially the mulatto population, was significantly shaped by antebellum emancipation. Blacks who shared the advantage of prewar freedom employed their superior financial resources and business experience to dominate their local economies after the war.

However, in an effort to decrease student test fatigue and associated costs, the state recently adopted census testing which reduced the number of students taking the social studies test.

Circular stone wheels provided the pressure to grind the grain and separate seed components. In most grist mills the energy for turning the heavy stones was derived from water power. The most visible part of some these mills was the externally mounted water wheel. However, other common configurations of the water ‘turbine’ internal to the structure were used (Figure 1).

Abstract Background Key to improved HIV outcomes is early diagnosis, linkage to care (LTC), retention in care (RIC) and viral load (VL) suppression. As treatment for HIV has become more effective, the gap in racial disparities has widened for LTC, RIC and VL. Social determinants of health (SDH) are conditions such as poverty level, income, education, employment that are responsible for most health inequities. SDH are drivers of disparities in HIV prevalence. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of SDH on racial disparities on time to LTC for newly diagnosed HIV infected indivi

Traps were censused at 0600, 1200, 1800, and 2400 during six 24-h periods from 1982 through 1984.

Shore-based dolphin surveys, however, typically use multiple observation sites over a much shorter time period (hours) in order to avoid double counting individuals as they change direction.

Abstract:

Background: Little crash equity research has controlled for active transportation rates, examined the Southeastern United States, or used composite sociodemographic metrics. This study analyzed disparities in pedestrian and cyclist crashes and crash severity according to level of social vulnerability (SV) across South Carolina. Methods: Data about SV and its 4 dimensions (socioeconomic status, household composition and disability, minority status and language, and housing type and transportation) were compiled for all census tracts (N = 1103) within South Carolina. Data for all crashes involvi

Abstract:

Aerial images taken during the growing seasons of 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2017 were visually inspected for evidence of irrigation. Center pivot irrigation was identified by the characteristic shape of the spans and the curved tracks left by the wheels. The author manually delineated a polygon over each agricultural area where signs of irrigation infrastructure were observed. The result is a map of 2,689 polygons covering 146,662 acres in South Carolina. Compared with the United States Department of Agriculture 2017 Census of Agriculture, the sampling results account for over 69% of total i

Background One in four South Carolinians lives in a county along a nearly 200-mile stretch of Interstate 95 (I-95). Stretching from North Carolina to Georgia, this region is among the most rural, economically depressed, and racially/ethnically diverse in the state. Research is needed to identify social factors contributing to adverse health outcomes along the I-95 corridor, guide interventions, and establish a baseline for measuring progress. This study assessed social determinants of health in counties in South Carolina’s I-95 corridor relative to the rest of the state. Method Data for South

Abstract: Using Charleston, South Carolina, USA, as a case-study, this article argues that this interplay of scales and, more specifically unequal scales, was just as important to fostering the growth of globally-connected cities in the early modern Atlantic. In the course of the eighteenth century, Charleston grew from a few thousand inhabitants to one of the largest cities in the North Atlantic with a population of roughly 15,000 at the first United States Census in 1790. Historians have customarily attributed this growth to the simultaneous expansion of the plantation economy, which produce

This article promotes the value of GIS methodologies to integrate and analyze a range of historic sources dating to the eighteenth century, utilizing Charleston, South Carolina as a case study. Data compiled from the 1790 Federal Census, the 1790 Charleston trade directory, and Ichnography of Charleston 1788 provide vital and complementary evidence that allows the population of the city to be located, which in turn provides a means of assessing late eighteenth-century residency patterns and the enslaved urban population.

AbstractHomeowners in coastal environments often augment their access to estuarine ecosystems by building private docks on their personal property. Despite the commonality of docks, particularly in the Southeastern United States, few works have investigated their historical development, their distribution across the landscape, or the environmental justice dimensions of this distribution. In this study, we used historic aerial photography to track the abundance and size of docks across six South Carolina counties from the 1950s to 2016.

Abstract:

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic created an unprecedented global health crisis. Recent studies suggest that socially vulnerable communities were disproportionately impacted, although findings are mixed. To quantify social vulnerability in the US, many studies rely on the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), a county-level measure comprising 15 census variables. Typically, the SVI is modelled in an additive manner, which may obscure non-linear or interactive associations, further contributing to inconsistent findings. As a more robust alternative, we propose a negative binomial Bayesian kernel machi

Most studies documenting the impacts of CAFOs rely almost exclusively on CAFO locations known from incomplete public records. Poultry CAFOs generate dry waste and operate without federal permits; thus, their environmental justice (EJ) impacts are undocumented.

Ethnogenesis is a powerful mechanism which outlines how ethnic groups are formed. It is a complex process which often involves factors such as migration, cultural exchanges, intermarriage as well as religion. Ethnogenesis is also described as the historical and contemporary emergence of a group of people who define themselves in relation to a common socio-cultural and historical heritage. Focusing on African American migration during the Great Migration and its subsequent reverse migration, this manuscript uses the theme of ethnogenesis to describe how migration to northern cities were shaped

Clinicians who administer CCH must complete risk mitigation training, and access to specialists varies by region across the US.
