The fishing community is a social element that is very important in the structure of coastal communities which they had colored cultural characteristics and socio-cultural behavior of coastal communities in particular that of Bagan Deli, Belawan, Medan. This study views their work ethic differences between the shipmen/crew, skipper/captain and ship owner that caused the differences of their social stratification. Using a qualitative method and non-parametric statistical analysis of kolmogorov smirnov, this study results that the work ethic among the crew and skipper there has no differences, whereas between the crew and the skipper with the owners there are differences in higher ethic.

Climate Change Policies

Coastal communities all over the world are experiencing unprecedented alterations from climate change. Unlike what most people would guess, coastal communities have not advanced much in their preparedness for a climate that is changing fast, despite their extensive exposure to climate hazards. If not true worldwide, at least that is what is happening in the majority of small and medium communities in the coast of New England, in the Northeast of US. This article explores data collected in a web survey conducted with city officials of coastal communities in the states of Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine, aiming to verify barriers to address climate change adaptation at the local level. The results of the survey showed many similarities between the challenges experienced by these small coastal communities. We suggest that, in presenting the main themes of the research, including special attention to the barriers encountered, this knowledge can contribute to the creation of a more climate-friendly region, thus helping to design and implement future climate change policies at the local level.

This is the first of two chapters (Chapters 8 and 9) that present the Dartmouth-based fieldwork results from northern New England. Chapter 8 provides a graphical and statistical analysis of the combined data set from central New Hampshire and Maine. This chapter shows that many traditional New England dialect features are receding in northeastern New England, and analyzes the social and phonological factors that play a role in these changes.

Hurricane surge Is a serious and not uncommon event along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts of the United States. The most disastrous display of hurricane forces in recent decades was by Camille, which struck the Mississippi coast in 1969. The storm tide reached 24.6 ft MSL„ Reported storm tides on the Atlantic coast have reached elevations of 15 to 20 ft in Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas and New England. One of the latest coordinated efforts to alleviate losses from hurricanes — supplementing warning services, community preparedness, and evacuation plans— is the Flood Insurance Program.
