萨佩罗岛，乔治亚州，1997

薄雾飘浮在萨佩罗岛（Sapelo Island）的橡树间，这片人造林位于19世纪全盛期的奥塔玛哈河（Altamaha River）。

根据一篇1998年的国家地理杂志文章所述，奥塔玛哈河每秒可以输送100000加仑（328000公升）的清新的水到大西洋，每年总计输送超过三百亿加仑的水。它的分水岭，是东海岸第三大分水岭，庇护了超过125种珍稀的动植物。







英文注释：
Sapelo Island, Georgia, 1997

A light fog floats through the live oak trees on Sapelo Island, a plantation site during the Altamaha River's 19th-century heyday.

According to a 1998 National Geographic magazine article, "The Altamaha pumps 100,000 gallons (328,000 liters) of fresh water into the Atlantic Ocean every second, more than three trillion gallons annually. Its watershed, the third largest on the East Coast, shelters more than 125 rare species of flora and fauna."
