That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Science and policy to manage nitrogen with cover crops—The Maryland experience
Abstract During the 1980s, research showed nitrogen‐stimulated eutrophication was contributing to the Chesapeake Bay's deterioration, and cover crop research shifted from legumes to replace fertilizer, to winter cereals to reduce nitrogen (N) leaching.

Recovery of great blue herons (Ardea herodias) within the Chesapeake Bay
We surveyed great blue herons throughout the tidal reach of the Chesapeake Bay in 2013 and mapped 423 colonies supporting 15,094 pairs. The population has increased more than four‐fold since the mid‐1970s. Colony size has declined. Invasion of colonies by bald eagles may be driving a change in spatial structure.
