different exhibits, and Zoombezi Bay. Although each are well-known Zoos, Columbus is visited by five times as many people each year, year-round. Similarities are both Detroit and Columbus Zoos have a lot of the same animals, a famous train ride, 4-D theaters, and also different places to eat with dining plans. Both zoos are open year round, and have current discount rates for winter though Columbus Zoo is $3 cheaper. Columbus Zoo also has a 22-acre water park known as Zoombezi Bay. This water park is

abundance in the Chesapeake Bay, however today fishermen are struggling to bring in a bountiful harvest due to the level of pollution. The east coast heavily depends on the food able to be harvested from the Chesapeake Bay. Travel is also a major reason people embark upon the Bay with its easy access to various locations. Humans have over crabbed and overfished the bay seizing chances for the species to replenish themselves. Another problem is the aptly titled dead zones in the bay which is due to excess

Scene in Fig. 1.1., the Chesapeake Bay is substantial in size; at roughly 64,000 miles, it contains roughly fifty rivers and thousands of streams and creeks. It encompasses parts of 6 states, including all of Washington, DC. The Chesapeake Bay is what is known as a watershed, an area that contributes to the drainage to a water body, stream, river, lake or ocean. Rainwater that falls within the 64,000 square miles that is the Chesapeake Bay will subsequently travel through many streams and rivers

Diversity and abundance of scavenger species in seagrass beds in comparison to intertidal flat zonations in estuarine environments. Introduction Scavenger species that live in estuarine environments, are organisms that niche in the trophic structure just before detritivores. The energy and nutrients broken down, is then passed back into the ecosystem, where the detritivores further complete the breakdown process of organic matter. They are opportunists when it comes to their diet, scrounging

control the diurnal variation in salinity and water level in both the seasons (Figure 8c & 8d). Moreover, moderate winds could have affected salinity and water level above the tidal-height either by pushing river-water towards the bay or by introducing shelf-water into the bay (e.g. black boxes in Figure 8) (Huang et al. 2002a; Huang et al. 2002b). Dry Bar and Cat Point salinity stations were located close to river mouth (Figure 1); however, they showed considerable variations in salinity during the

Two specific regions that many historians tend to articulate about. Consisting of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire, the New England region presents many intriguing ways of achieving their goals. Likewise, the Chesapeake Bay, which contain Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina and part of South Carolina, also have their own ways of achieving different goals. While many focus on the differences of each region, others focus on the similarities that each of the regions possess

The Chesapeake Bay is the nation’s largest estuary with six major tributaries, the James, the Potomac, the Susquehanna, the Patuxent, the York, and the Rappahannock Rivers, feeding into the bay from various locations in Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia (Chemical Contaminants in the Chesapeake Bay – Workshop Discussion 1). These areas depend on the Bay as both an environmental and an economic resource. Throughout the last 15 years the Chesapeake Bay has suffered from

THE EVERGLADES: RIVER OF GRASS The Everglades, also known as the River of Grass, is one of South Florida's most treasured areas. It is an area still full of wonder and mystery. The Everglades is lined with a specific type of limestone bedrock formed by tiny organisms called byrozoans. These animals, though not related to coral, act like coral by extracting dissolved limestone from the sea water around them and using it to construct protective chambers in which to live. They then attach to
