We are all familiar with the nursery rhyme, "Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day...", or
the song "Singin' in the Rain." Numerous songs and stories describe our feelings about rain. Why so many?
Because we humans understand how important rain is to our well-being. Rainfall, as part of the

Some plants grow only in water-logged environments. These plants are usually native to wetlands and are important for the sustainability of aquatic ecosystems. Wetland ecosystems are very fragile and susceptible to the toxic dumping of sewage and fertilizer run-off from neighboring farm land. One very common aquatic plant called duckweed inhabits many wetland marshes. Duckweed grows by asexual reproduction and floats at the surface of the water with tiny roots extending into the water below.…
