Great Dismal Swamp (original) (raw)
Der Great Dismal Swamp ist ein seit 1973 staatlich geschütztes Sumpfgebiet in der Küstenebene der Bundesstaaten Virginia und North Carolina in den Vereinigten Staaten. Das Areal besteht aus rund 500 km² bewaldeten Feuchtgebieten und einem 12,5 km² großen natürlichen See, dem Lake Drummond, in seiner Mitte. Den östlichen Rand des Sumpfes entlang verläuft der 1805 fertiggestellte Dismal Swamp Canal.

(de) The Great Dismal Swamp is a large swamp in the Coastal Plain Region of southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina, between Norfolk, Virginia, and Elizabeth City, North Carolina. It is located in parts of the southern Virginia independent cities of Chesapeake and Suffolk and northern North Carolina counties of Gates, Pasquotank, and Camden. Some estimates place the size of the original swamp at over one million acres (4,000 km2). The current size of the Great Dismal Swamp is around 750 square miles (480,000 acres) (1,940 square km). Lake Drummond, a 3,100-acre (13 km2) natural lake, is located in the heart of the swamp. Lake Drummond is a circular body of water, and is one of only two naturally occurring freshwater lakes in Virginia. Along the Great Dismal Swamp's eastern edge runs the Dismal Swamp Canal. The canal is 22 miles long, and was completed in 1805 to provide a pathway for trade between Chesapeake Bay, Virginia and the Albemarle Sound in North Carolina. The largest water supply for the Dismal Swamp Canal is through Lake Drummond. The Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge was created in 1973 when the Union Camp Corporation of Franklin, Virginia, donated 49,100 acres (19,900 ha) of land after centuries of logging and other human activities devastated the swamp's ecosystems. The refuge was officially established through the Dismal Swamp Act of 1974, and today consists of over 167 square miles (433 square km) of forested wetlands. Outside the boundaries of the refuge, the state of North Carolina has preserved and protected additional portions of the swamp through the establishment of the Dismal Swamp State Park. The park protects 22 square miles (57 km2) of forested wetland. The swamp was a refuge location for The Great Dismal Swamp Maroons, including enslaved people in the Southern states before the American Civil War, and Native Americans who were escaping colonial expansion. Prior to the maroons inhabiting the swamp, it was inhabited by Algonquian-speaking Native American coastal tribes. A 45,611-acre (184.58 km2) remnant of the original swamp was declared a National Natural Landmark in 1973, in recognition of its unique combination of geological and ecological features.

Il est connu pour avoir abrité des communautés d'esclaves marrons entre le XVIIe siècle et la guerre de Sécession (1861-1865). Une réserve naturelle est établie sur son périmètre en 1973. (fr) Het Great Dismal Swamp (letterlijk vertaald “Groot Akelig Moeras”) is een moerasachtige regio op de kustvlakte van zuidoost Virginia en noordoost North Carolina, tussen Norfolk en Elizabeth City, North Carolina in de Verenigde Staten. Het is een van de vele moerassen langs de kust van de Atlantische Oceaan. Essentieel voor het ecosysteem van het moeras zijn de waterreserves, de lokale vegetatie en de vele diersoorten die er leven. Zijn ecologische significantie en zijn rijke geschiedenis maken van het Great Dismal Swamp een unieke wildernis. Het is een van de grootste stukken natuur in het oosten van de Verenigde Staten. Houtkap en vele andere menselijke activiteiten hebben in de afgelopen eeuwen het ecosysteem aangetast. In 1973 werd het opgericht. Het moeras is nu een beschermd natuurgebied met een oppervlakte van 500 km² aan moerasland. , een meer met een oppervlakte van 13 km², bevindt zich in het hart van dit natuurgebied. (nl) Грейт-Ди́смал (англ. Great Dismal Swamp, Dismal Swamp; буквально «Великое мрачное болото», также Ди́смал-Суо́мп) — большое болото в Прибрежной равнинной области юго-восточной Виргинии и северо-восточной части Северной Каролины, между Норфолком, штат Виргиния, и , штат Северная Каролина. Оно расположено в отдельных частях независимых городов Южной Виргинии — Чесапике и Саффолке, а также в округах Гейтс, Паскуотанк, Карритак и Камден на севере Северной Каролины. По некоторым оценкам, площадь первоначального болота составляло более миллиона акров (4000 км²), и оно простиралось от Норфолка, штат Виргиния, до , штат Северная Каролина. Это южное болото, одно из многих вдоль побережья Атлантического океана, в число которых входят болото Эверглейдс и Биг-Сайпресс во Флориде, в Джорджии, Конгари в Южной Каролине и некоторые заливы в обеих Каролинах и в Джорджии. В середине болота расположено естественное , площадью 3100 акров (13 км²). Круглое озеро является одним из двух естественных озер в Виргинии. По восточной окраине болота Грейт-Дисмал проходит , строительство которого было завершено в 1805 году. В 1973 году был основан , после того как корпорация Union Camp Corporation, расположенная во Франклине, штат Виргиния, пожертвовала 49 100 акров земли (199 км²) на его создание. До этого на его территории происходили вырубки, разрушившие экосистему болота. Заповедник был официально установлен указом «Дисмал-Суомп акт» 1974 года, и сегодня его площадь составляет более 112 000 акров (450 км²) лесных водно-болотных угодий. За пределами заповедника штат Северная Каролина создал дополнительные участки заповедника путём основания . Площадь парка составляет 22 квадратные мили (57 км²), на которых расположены лесные угодья.
