Sensitivity Analysis Of Historical Aerial Photography: A Case Study Of Barrier Island Marshes, Joanne N. Halls, Lindsey M. Kraatz
International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software
Barrier islands and coastal salt marshes are complex ecosystems that move and change throughtime in response to many factors. For example, hurricanes bring strong winds, rain, and storm surge whichcan greatly change the distribution of surficial deposits. Through time the islands can migrate and inletschange their positions. A study of back-barrier salt marshes in southeastern North Carolina, USA, wasconducted to map changes in the distribution and fragmentation characteristics of the marshes. Topsail Islandand Masonboro Island were chosen as comparative study sites since Topsail has had increasing urbanizationsince the 1930s while Masonboro is a protected, undeveloped, island. By gathering, rectifying, interpreting,and …

Theses and Dissertations
For centuries the architect was the master builder; the one who was responsible for both the design and the construction of a project with sufficient construction expertise to oversee the project from inception to completion. Eventually, complexity of projects required a higher level of specialization leading to the separation of the designer and the builder. Since that separation, the role of the designer, or architect, has continued to shift and evolve. In recent history, the architect has been the one selected by a building owner, at the inception of the project, as the professional who is able to assist and …
