2006-08-29<BR>　　Florida, 1973<BR>　　Photograph by Otis Imboden<BR>　　Intense hurricane winds pummel the shoreline. This rotating storm that carries winds of at least 74 miles (119 kilometers) an hour is called a "hurricane" when it develops over the Atlantic and eastern Pacific Oceans. It is a "cyclone" when it forms over the Bay of Bengal and the northern Indian Ocean, and "typhoon" in the western Pacific. <BR>　　(Photograph shot on assignment for, but not published in, "We’re Doing Something About the Weather!" April 1972, National Geographic magazine) <BR>　　<BR>　　猛烈的飓风正袭击着海岸线。这种风速达到74英里(119公里)每小时以上的旋转着的风暴称为“飓风”，其在大西洋和动太平洋的上空形成。如果是在孟加拉海湾及北印度洋上空形成的则称为“龙卷风”，在西太平洋的则是“台风”。<BR><BR><IMG src="http://lava.nationalgeographic.com/pod/pictures/lg_wallpaper/Y0407_50447.jpg"><BR>

　2006-08-26<BR>　　Along the Indian River, Dominica, 1996<BR>　　Photograph by Michael Melford<BR>　　A bois mang tree grows along the banks of the Indian River. With a life span of 150 years, these 100-foot- (30-meter-) tall trees are supported by sinewy, buttressed roots that wind in and amongst themselves. The roots don't just support the riverbank, they are the riverbank, making the ground beyond look like a wall-to-wall carpet of wooden eels. <BR>　　(Text adapted from and photograph shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Dominica: The Caribbean's 'Nature Island'," June 1997, National Geographic magazine) <BR>　　<BR>　　<BR>　　图为一颗长在印第安河边的bois mang树。这些大树已经生长了大约150年，足有100英尺(30米)高，由那些缠结蜿蜒在树林中的强劲有力的树根支撑。这些树根不仅只是支撑着河岸，它们几乎就已经成为了河岸，这使得河边的地上就好像铺满了木头鳝鱼般的地毯似的。<BR><BR><IMG src="http://lava.nationalgeographic.com/pod/pictures/lg_wallpaper/T0488_5.jpg"><BR>

2006-08-24<BR>　　Diepolder Cave, Florida, 1998<BR>　　Photograph by Wes Skiles<BR>　　"No sunlight reaches the bowels of Diepolder Cave, leaving this large chamber—250 feet [76 meters] deep—devoid of life.
