abstract:Climate change is a global issue that will impact the preservation of historic heritage sites. However, much of the research on the impacts of climate change on historic heritage sites has focused on Europe and in the United States, studies have largely centered on National Park Service (NPS) sites. In the state of Georgia, a number of heritage tourism destinations central to the state's vibrant tourism economy occur in its coastal zone, a zone navigating the impacts of sea-level rise, flooding, coastal erosion, and hurricanes. Given the limited understanding of the impacts on heritage tourism sites specifically within the state of Georgia—which has yet to develop a statewide adaptation plan—this study seeks to understand the impacts of climate change on heritage tourism sites from the perspective of site managers and staff. This study takes a multi-methodological approach utilizing surveys and archival research to understand site-specific impacts, management protocols, and management and staff views on climate change. The study focused on six sites in Georgia falling under different ownership structures and found that managers and staff at all sites reported damage from hurricanes and flooding and were concerned about the impacts of climate change and the long-term survival of their site.

abstract:The framing of national parks as "America's best idea" has undergone a multi-disciplinary critique for its failure to address the scarcity of racial minority visitors, particularly Black Americans. Slavery, segregation, and ongoing racial politics demand a process of unlearning and undoing by centering Black voices. This research seeks to re-examine Black Americans' motivations for and deterrents against visiting national parks using Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP) as a preliminary case study. A review of archival documents (e.g., park history and promotional materials), interpretation programs, exhibits, and the racial composition of surrounding communities and park employees was conducted to identify gaps in Black Americans' representation within the core messages created and promoted by GSMNP. The results suggest that Black Americans are rarely seen in archival documents, and marginally represented in publicly accessible literature and exhibits. This legacy may send a message to Black Americans that the park is a "White" space, where their ancestors were treated as second-class citizens or excluded entirely. Under the shadow of Jim Crow laws, segregation, racism, and discrimination, this space may have been associated with danger or considered unsafe and unwelcoming. Our findings contribute to the broader understanding of how landscapes and institutions are racialized, and how the power of narrative can be used to dismantle racialization.

abstract:National seashores are cherished public lands with rich environmental, cultural, and historic resources. The Cape Hatteras National Seashore is one such coastal asset that is both bountiful yet vulnerable, with historic lighthouses, critical habitats, and recreational amenities alike facing threats of sea-level rise and continual storm and climate change impacts. Over 3 million visitors to the Seashore in 2021 set an annual visitation record. Historic resources such as the Bodie Island Lighthouse and Ocracoke Lighthouse are among the most visited sites, yet these assets are also among those most vulnerable to flooding, compromised structural integrity, and reduced accessibility. Future challenges to the protection and management of such resources are already being felt in the form of storms, extreme rainfall, and recurrent compound flooding. Such threats are also coincident with increasing visitation and recreational demand. This paper examines the science-based data that are being collected and management efforts underway to inform future planning, intervention, or adaptation to sea-level rise and barrier island evolution. The paper identifies the opportunities for mitigation and adaptation as well as potential environmental tipping points and limits to resilience by assessing the frequency and magnitude of flooding events and shoreline change.
国家海岸是珍贵的公共土地，拥有丰富的环境、文化和历史资源。哈特拉斯角国家海岸(Cape Hatteras National Seashore)就是这样一处既丰富又脆弱的海岸资产，拥有历史悠久的灯塔、重要的栖息地和娱乐设施，这些设施都面临着海平面上升、持续风暴和气候变化影响的威胁。2021年，超过300万游客来到海滨，创下了年度游客记录。Bodie岛灯塔和Ocracoke灯塔等历史资源是访问量最大的景点之一，但这些资产也最容易受到洪水的影响，结构完整性受损，可达性降低。未来对这些资源的保护和管理的挑战已经以风暴、极端降雨和经常性复合洪水的形式出现。这些威胁也与不断增加的游客和娱乐需求同时发生。本文考察了正在收集的基于科学的数据和正在进行的管理工作，为未来的规划、干预或适应海平面上升和堰洲岛的演变提供信息。该文件通过评估洪水事件和海岸线变化的频率和规模，确定了缓解和适应的机会，以及潜在的环境临界点和复原力的限制。

highlights:•Export activity from the southern United States has outpaced exports from the US at large, in addition to exceeding growth in overall southern economic output.•Southern export activities have been spatially uneven and shown signs of volatility, indicating heterogeneous evolutionary paths.•Many southern states continue to serve longtime export partners, markets, yet the export concentration in the top markets has largely diminished over the past two decades.The southern United States has seen explosive economic growth over the past several decades. One component of this growth has entailed rapid (and often widely varying) increases in goods-related exports, with overall growth numbers that have exceeded the US at large in addition to eclipsing overall southern economic output. However, has this growth in internationalization been shared across the region and moreover, do southern states serve similar export markets? Within the contexts of evolutionary economic geography and research on the geographies of exporting, this paper examines the trajectories of goods-related exports across the southern US, particularly in relation to recent shifts in the global economy including during the pandemic. The analyses reveal that export growth and performance are largely uneven in spatial terms, yet many states share leading export markets and also show signs of less dependence on dominant markets. On balance, exports appear to be tied to large, branch-plant production or related to extractive industries. The paper concludes with discussions on whether exports have been beneficial to the region and possible futures for exporting across the South in light of evolutionary changes in globalization.
