Using Black Earth and Remote Sensing - Methods and Guidelines for Analysis of Indicator Species Distribution Using Remote Sensing - Presentation (Legacy 10-416) (2012)
This presentation continues the topic in the "Recommendations for Applying Results to DoD Modeling Initiatives" above. Remote sensing is defined, methods are presented, and interpretation and analysis are discussed. The theses of the presentation are that vegetation types containing high density of archaeological sites should show the highest potential for discovery of previously unknown cultural sites, and remote sensing, especially high-resolution aerial imagery, is useful in efficiently...
Using Black Earth and Remote Sensing - Soil Analysis, Methods and Guidelines - Presentation (Legacy 10-416) (2012)
This presentation defines black earth/soils; describes sampling, lab, and analytical methods; outlines the use of the results in ArcMap (Inverse Distance Weighting spatial interpolation tool), and discusses species and soil mineral contents that may indicate use by Native Americans. The thesis of the presentation is that an integration of the use of vegetative indicator species and black earth has more predictive power than either alone.
Using Black Earth and Remote Sensing of Indicator Plants for Identification of Prehistoric Archaeological Sensitivity and Potential Site Integrity in the Eastern Woodlands (Legacy 10-416)
This project collected soils data at four installations (Fort Drum, NY; Marine Corps Base Quantico, VA, Cheatham Annex of Naval Weapons Station Yorktown, VA, and Dare County Bombing Range of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, NC) to explore the efficacy of black earth as an indicator of Indian activity on the landscape. The project's report includes analysis and major conclusions, which were applied to develop management strategies that can be implemented across a wide range of DoD holdings in the...

The report also provided four recommendations in order to avoid or mitigate project impacts.
VAFB-2009-14: Macrobotanical Analysis of Soil Samples from CA-SBA-658, Santa Barbara County, California (2009)
This document is a report of the results of a Macro botanical Analysis of Soil Samples from CA-SBA-658. This analysis suggests that the inhabitants of site CA-SBA-658 collected plants from Honda Creek, nearby grasslands, and scrub/chaparral to obtain food and firewood. Some of the recovered taxa were also used for medicinal and utilitarian purposes. Extremely poor preservation conditions at both sites have greatly hampered our understanding of how their inhabitants interacted with the plant...
