Newly applied coal-tar-based sealcoat is dark black, sharply contrasting with the unsealed asphalt parking lot below. Coal-tar-based sealcoat is a potent source of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).

Sealcoat, marketed to protect and beautify the underlying asphalt, sharply contrasts here with the light gray of unsealcoated asphalt pavement. Read more about coal-tar-based sealcoat and PAHs here.

The abrasive action of car tires and snow plows causes sealcoat to wear off. Here, light-colored patches indicate where the sealcoat has worn off and the underlying asphalt shows through.

Coal-tar-based sealcoat, a potent source of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), abrades into fine particles with time. Here, runoff containing abraded particles goes down a storm drain and is delivered to a nearby lake. Read more about coal-tar-based sealcoat and PAHs here.

Ant hill near grassland-forest ecotone near Tebicuary river. This former pasture has not been grazed since an endangered bird species was discovered here half a dozen years ago. The Ñeembucú Region is typified by extensive grasslands and wetlands. Near 26°34’52’’S, 56°49’18’’W. (Guyra Paraguay 2004, Annotated Checklist of the Birds of Paraguay, Paraguay.)

Hollow in living tree in gallery forest of tributary to Tebicuary river. Grey feathers stuck along bottom of entrance suggest that it may be used by a bird. Paraguay is home to at least 589 breeding bird species and 120 migratory bird species. The Ñeembucú Region is typified by extensive grasslands and wetlands.
