Coasts in Crisis, Coastal Conflicts
The damage Hugo caused along South Carolina's barrier islands and shore communities clearly shows the importance of good construction and the natural protection provided by a wide, high beach and sand dunes. Folly Beach, south of Charleston, was on the weaker (south) side of the hurricane, but its beaches were already severely narrowed by long-term erosion; homeowners had dumped boulders and concrete rubble on the beach to form a protecting revetment. The revetment proved useless during Hugo. The storm surge (over 3.5 meters at Folly Beach) overtopped the structure, caused major damage to beachfront houses, and totally swept away a popular seafood restaurant. Isle of Palms and Sullivans Island, north of Charleston, suffered substantial damage, but the effects were somewhat lessened by a wide beach and dunes. Houses that survived were built to withstand high winds and flooding, in contrast to homes built to lower standards that were totally destroyed. ... [Read More]
NOAA Ocean Explorer: Investigating the Charleston Bump
The swordfish ( Xiphias gladius ) is perhaps best known for the thrill that it gives sportfishermen, and as a great entrée on the dinner plate of many restaurant goers. The Charleston Bump actually provides nursery habitat for larval swordfish, and it is thought that spawning may occur in the food-laden waters over the Charleston Bump. Fishermen often target the swordfish that feed in the Bump’s productive waters. Ironically, today’s first sub dive was delayed to allow longline fishermen to pull in their gear. ... [Read More]

Market Hall and Sheds
By the mid-18th century Charleston had become a bustling trade center, and the wealthiest and largest city south of Philadelphia. Rice and indigo had been successfully cultivated by gentleman planters in the surrounding coastal lowcountry, while merchants profited from the successful shipping industry. As the relationship between the colonists and England deteriorated, Charleston became a focal point in the ensuing Revolution. In protest of the Tea Act of 1773, which embodied the concept of "taxation without representation," Charlestonians confiscated tea and stored it in the Exchange and Custom House . Representatives from all over the colony came to the Exchange in 1774 to elect delegates to the Continental Congress, the group responsible for drafting the Declaration of Independence; and South Carolina declared its independence from the crown on the steps of the Exchange. Soon, the church steeples of Charleston, especially St. Michael's, became targets for British war ships. A sieg ... [Read More]
