Map of General Sherman's March : Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina, 1865 (Raster Image)

This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map: Map showing route of marches of the army of Genl. W.T. Sherman, from Atlanta, Ga. to Goldsboro, N.C. : to accompany the report of operations from Savannah, Ga. to Goldsboro, N.C., prepared by order of the Secretary of War for the officers of the U.S. Army under the command of Maj. Gen. W.T. Sherman. It was published by the Engineer Bureau, War Dept. in 1865. Scale [ca. 1:1,950,000]. Shows Sherman's March through the Carolinas covering South Carolina and portions of North Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator projection (WGS 1984 UTM Zone 17N). All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as roads, railroads, cities and towns, drainage, and more. Relief shown by hachures. The routes of the 14th, 15th, 17th, and 20th corps and the cavalry are indicated by colors and symbols. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps of the Civil War from the Harvard Map Collection. Many items from this selection are from a collection of maps deposited by the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States Commandery of the State of Massachusetts (MOLLUS) in the Harvard Map Collection in 1938. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features, in particular showing places of military importance. The selection represents a range of regions, originators, ground condition dates, scales, and purposes.

Distribution of deep-sea meiobenthos in surface sediments off North Carolina

Observations on the ecology and distribution of meiofauna occurring on the outer continental shelf and continental slope at depths from 50 to 2500 m in the region where the Blake Plateau cuts across the North Carolina slope are reported. Total numbers of meiofauna ranged from 151/100 cm**3 of sediment at 400 m to 1196/100 cm**3 of sediment at 250 m. Sediments of the upper region (50-500 m) consisted of medium-sized calcareous sands with relatively low organic carbon contents, while the deeper sediments (600-2500 m) consisted of sandy silts and silts with organic carbon contents 6-10 times that of the shallower sediments. Two basic faunas appear to be present in the areas investigated; a shallow-water fauna extending from 50 to 500 m and a deep-water fauna from 800 to 2500 m. The shallow-water fauna consists of nematodes (the dominant taxon) and relatively large numbers of harpactacoid copepods, ostracods, benthic foraminifera, polychaetes, gastrotrichs and several other groups, while below 500 m only nematodes and foraminifera are present in large numbers, the latter being especially abundant between 800 and 2000 m. A major change in the meiofauna occurs on the Blake Plateau between the depths of approximately 400-500 m and 600-750 m where the composition of the sediment changes from sand to silty sand. From 50 m to 400-500 m gastrotrichs, turbellaria, tardigrades, kinorhynchs, halicarids, hydrozoans, gnathostomulids, lamellibranchs and cumaceans are commonly encountered; these groups are absent below 500 m. In addition, there are significant reductions in the numbers of harpactacoids, ostracods, nemerteans and polychaetes below 500 m. Examination of the nematode population also show faunal differences between the shallower sediments (50-500 m) and the deeper sediments (600-2500 m). High indices of affinity exist among the faunas between 50 and 500 m and among the faunas between 800 and 2500 m; the fauna at 600-750 m represents a transition between these two regions, but it is more closely related to the deep-water fauna. Changes in the distribution of both the total meiofuna and also the nematodes are highly correlated with changes in sediments composition and bottom water temperatures. It is suggested that changes in grain size and accompanying changes in sources of nutrition, which are the results of Gulf Stream and other current activity, are the dominant environmental factors influencing the meiofauna of the area.
