This is a very good article on driftwood and the relationship between forests, rivers and the ocean.

I just saw an episode of Blue Planet 2 (excellent) that said that scientists now think that baby sea turtles spend much of their time growing to adulthood on and around a piece of driftwood they find. Without something to rest on, and a source of algae (when they're tiny) or crustaceans/limpets/small fish as they get bigger, they won't live long enough to do open ocean hunting.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary added these words the year I was born. Being during the Big One, WW II, some are expected, but a lot of them like Autism and Garbanzo bean surprised me.
