Book Synopsis The Archaeology of Refuge and Recourse by : Tsim D. Schneider
Download or read book The Archaeology of Refuge and Recourse written by Tsim D. Schneider and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Archaeology of Refuge and Recourse explores the dual practices of refuge and recourse among Indigenous peoples of California. From the eighteenth to the twentieth century, Indigenous Coast Miwok communities in California persisted throughout multiple waves of colonial intrusion. But to what ends? Applying theories of place and landscape, social memory, and mobility to the analysis of six archaeological sites, Tsim D. Schneider argues for a new direction in the archaeology of colonialism. This book offers insight about the critical and ongoing relationships Indigenous people maintained to their homelands despite colonization and systematic destruction of their cultural sites. Schneider is a citizen of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, the sovereign and federally recognized tribe of Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo people whose ancestral homelands and homewaters are the central focus of The Archaeology of Refuge and Recourse. Viewing this colonial narrative from an Indigenous perspective, Schneider focuses on the nearly one quarter of Coast Miwok people who survived the missions and created outlets within and beyond colonial settlements to resist and endure colonialism. Fleeing these colonial missions and other establishments and taking refuge around the San Francisco Bay Area, Coast Miwok people sought to protect their identities by remaining connected to culturally and historically significant places. Mobility and a sense of place further enabled Coast Miwok people to find recourse and make decisions about their future through selective participation in colonial projects. In this book, Tsim D. Schneider argues that these distancing and familiarizing efforts contribute to the resilience of Coast Miwok communities and a sense of relevance and belonging to stolen lands and waters. Facing death, violence, and the pervading uncertainty of change, Indigenous people of the Marin Peninsula balanced the pull and persistence of place against the unknown possibilities of a dynamic colonial landscape and the forward-thinking required to survive. History, change, and the future can be read in the story of Coast Miwok people.

Book Synopsis Landslides in Central California by : William Madison Brown
Download or read book Landslides in Central California written by William Madison Brown and published by American Geophysical Union. This book was released on 1989 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 381. This guidebook describes an integrated program of field trips and workshops on landslides in central California. The program emphasizes state-of-the-art techniques for recognizing, mapping, analyzing, and mitigating a variety of landslide processes in urban, rural, and natural settings throughout the varied geologic terrain of central California. The workshops also draw upon pertinent examples of landslide processes from other areas to illustrate particular theories and practices. The field trips visit landslide areas and field research stations, and are interspersed with workshops on landslides induced by precipitation and earthquakes, automated terrain mapping, submarine landslide processes, field experimentation, landslide mapping techniques, landslide hazard mitigation through structural and nonstructural measures, and landslide policy issues. The three-day field trip across California from the Pacific Ocean to the Sierra Nevada focuses on the spectacular beauty and fascinating geology of the California Coast Ranges, Yosemite National Park, and Mammoth Lakes area.
Book Synopsis Geographical Information Systems in Assessing Natural Hazards by : Alberto Carrara
Download or read book Geographical Information Systems in Assessing Natural Hazards written by Alberto Carrara and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 16 contributions to Geographical Information Systems in Assessing Natural Hazards report on GIS investigations into landslides, floods, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and groundwater pollution hazards. Current methods for predicting extreme events are critically discussed, the emphasis being on the intrinsic complexity of this type of operation, requiring many spatial data, long historical records and sound models of the physical processes involved. Within this context, the potentials and limitations of GIS are addressed in terms of data acquisition, spatial data structures and modelling for simulation of the causal phenomena. Geographic Information Systems in Assessing Natural Hazards will help investigators in both public and private institutions to evaluate the actual effectiveness of GIS in coping with natural disasters, and to develop new strategies for projects aimed at the assessment and mitigation of the effects of such catastrophic events.

Book Synopsis Resource Depression and Intensification During the Late Holocene, San Francisco Bay by : Jack M. Broughton
Download or read book Resource Depression and Intensification During the Late Holocene, San Francisco Bay written by Jack M. Broughton and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1999-07-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Emeryville Shellmound, on the east shore of San Francisco Bay, was excavated and subsequently destroyed in the early twentieth century. From its stratified deposits, which span the period 2600 to 700 years ago, the author identified 2,004 fish and 15,893 mammal specimens, and analyzed these and 2,302 avian remains previously identified by Hildegarde Howard in the 1920s. A battery of independent tests derived from foraging theory supports the conclusion that human-induced impacts on vertebrate populations caused declines in the efficiency of foraging across the time that the Emeryville locality was occupied.
Book Synopsis Water-Related Natural Disasters in Mountainous Area, volume II by : Jia-wen Zhou
Download or read book Water-Related Natural Disasters in Mountainous Area, volume II written by Jia-wen Zhou and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-03-13 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In mountainous areas, due to the unique geological and topographical conditions, and along with the impact of global climate change, extreme rainfall events often occur and induce natural disasters such as flash floods, debris flows, landslides, dammed lakes and others. These water-related natural disasters (WRNDs) frequently occur around the world, such as the July 29th 1998 debris flow and landslide dam at Capricorn Creek in Mount Meager Volcanic Complex (southern Canada), the flash flood of 20th August 2018 in Raganello Gorge (southern Italy), and the 2007 summer floods in the United Kingdom. WRNDs are more serious in Southeast Asia particularly in Southwest China, where many places suffer from such disasters in the flood season every year, such as the May 20th 2012 flash flood/debris flow among the hit area of Wenchuan earthquake, the June 24th 2017 Xinmo Catastrophic landslide in Mao county and in 2018 the two sequential landslide-dammed lake events at Jinsha River. These WRNDs not only cause heavy casualties and property losses but also destroy the ecological environment. These WRNDs are not only the concern of government managers and engineers, but also deserve more in-depth study from researchers. Formation and evolution mechanisms of WRNDs are very complicated, and influenced by several aspects, such as geological and topographical conditions, hydrometeorological conditions, geomaterial properties, rainfall history and flow condition, and others. Field and laboratory tests can help us to better understand the related mechanism behind the disasters. Theoretical and empirical models, modeling and numerical methods can provide more reasonable evaluation and forecasting results of WRNDs, but a more in-depth understanding is needed. Furthermore, for the risk control and hazard prevention and mitigation, new equipment and technologies have been developed and have achieved some progress in recent years, but the fast and effective emergency treatments for WRNDs need more attention.
