Fall Color Around Lake Superior
164 x 120 JPEG
Published September 29, 2007
The forests of northern Michigan and southern Ontario flamed orange as the first trees of the season—maples—began to display their brilliant red and orange fall colors. Veins of green run through the sea of orange where the deciduous forest gives way to deep green pine trees. The most vivid color is concentrated in Canada’s province of Ontario. Located farther south, Michigan’s trees show only a hint of color.

Seasonal Rain Floods Africa’s Sahel
216 x 144 PNG
Africa’s Sahel region, a margin of semi-arid grassland around the southern limit of the Sahara Desert, gets most of its rainfall between June and September. In 2007, the final months of the rainy season brought unusually heavy rainfall to much of the Sahel and the tropical savannas to its south, causing floods in river basins from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean coasts of the continent.
