Illustration of a ghost forest, which can be caused by sea-level rise, land subsidence, or both. As land subsides along the coast, trees can drown in saturated soils, creating ghost forests. Salt-water intrusion into groundwater can also cause salt-intolerant trees to die.

Permeable pavers are brick-like materials that are manufactured in a variety of shapes. Pavers fit together like tiles and are set with small gaps between them, creating grooves for water to infiltrate the soil beneath. Permeable pavers reduce stormwater runoff volume and flow rate, and increase groundwater infiltration and recharge.

This flicker seemed to be searching the lawn for grubs as it probed the grass with its sharp bill. It is a member of the woodpecker family, and is one of the few woodpecker species that migrate. This photo was taken on the UMCES campus, Cambridge, MD, February 14, 2013.
