This is created by the rain shadow effect, the prevailing winds on the windward side pushes the moist warm air up the side of the mountain where it cools and humidity increases. Then the cool air with no moisture sinks down the leeward side of the mountain and warms as humidity decreases (Chu et al. 2002). This creates different environments for a wide variety of species to congregate and live. In Hawaii there are an abundance of different species, like the ethnicities the vegetation is a melting pot of species. Hawaii is known for its incredible native species, but sadly a majority of these species are endangered, extinct or threatened. These species were once thriving in Hawaii, but as invasive species were introduced the native species were outcompeted since the invasive had no natural predators. For example, the Ohia lehu trees, they were once bountiful near the shore line to the high mountain peaks. Due to the introduction of the invasive species the ohia now lives only on high mountain tops and ridges and is no longer found near the shore line. This native plant is also the habitat for many native birds that are now forced to live on higher elevations due to the warming of the planet and habitat availability (Paxton et al. 2016). These factors can determine the natural gradient of different places among Hawaii be it

Mesa Verde National Park, located in Montezuma County, Colorado, was established in 1906 by President Theodore Roosevelt. This United States landmark was designated for the preservation of several Puebloan archeological sites and the vast geologic history exhibited within the 52,485 acres of land occupied by Mesa Verde. The Ancestral Puebloans, or Mesa Verdeans, associated with the archeological sites of Mesa Verde National Park, lived in the Mesa Verde region from the mid-sixth century to the end of the thirteenth century.[3]

When thinking of birds, visualizing them building their nests in cacti certainly isn't the first thing that comes to mind. In the book, The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver, metaphorically everyone is constantly building their nests in cacti, and evolving from their experiences. From living in attics to taking trips across the country with no destination, characters in this book don't live what society considers the “conventional American lifestyle.” Growing and thriving in unexpected and unusual places and ways is nothing but average throughout the book. Taylor, despite unorthodox living arrangements or lifestyle, shows how living things are able to find methods of growing and changing. From great change in location to change within

The issue of slavery has been discussed and debated a great deal throughout history, and has even led to a numerous amount of conflicts between individuals. It is a topic that, although can be difficult to talk about, is ultimately a necessary conversation to have. When going back to look at slavery’s impactful role in Colonial America, there are a great deal of key figures to investigate, in order to draw more information. After all, many of the Founding Fathers are now known to be slave owners, and slaves were vital to the infrastructure of some of the colonies. While there were different forms of captivity that were prevalent in the Atlantic World; I believe it is important to take a closer look at those who based their ideologies off of morality and rational thought, and examine what their opinions were on the enslavement of entire races of people. Therefore, this
