Articles by Eric Seeger
Reading the Tree Rings
Editorial photographer Greg Kahn specializes in finding the small details that reveal a larger theme in the stories that he shoots. One of his ongoing pursuits has been finding scenes and subjects that show the intersection of climate change, science, nature and people.
Preserving Bobcat Alley
The orphaned bobcat kitten was in critical condition when Nancy Warner rescued her from a garage in September 2022. “She was in really rough shape,” remembers Warner: just four weeks old, weighing under a pound, severely malnourished, riddled with fleas and laboring to breathe with a chest infection. Warner whisked the kitten back to The Last Resort Wildlife Refuge, a nonprofit she’d founded in Hewitt, New Jersey, and placed her into an incubator. The kitten needed warmth and oxygen.
After the Disaster: An Asheville Resident on Cleaning Up After the Storm
Eric Seeger is the deputy editor at Nature Conservancy magazine. He grew up surfing hurricane swells in Florida during the 1990s and 2000s, and has lived the last 18 years near Asheville, North Carolina. He wrote about his experience in the wake of the historic floods and landslides that hit North Carolina and Tennessee in 2024. “As this article was going to press, images of the devasting wildfires in Southern California were hitting the news,” he says.
Communities Unite to Save Papua New Guinea’s Forests from Logging
In the villages of mainland Papua New Guinea, near the town of Madang on the north coast, a struggle to protect the rainforest is underway. Loggers have clearcut large swathes of the rainforest in this region, destroying a valuable resource that local villages depend on for survival. “The forest is our livelihood,” says Lawrence Micah, who has lived his entire 50 years in the village of Simbukanam.
How Do I Upgrade the Version of Android on My Tablet?
The T-Mobile G1, launched in October 2008, was the first major mobile device to use the Android operating system. Only four years later Android had the largest mobile operating system market share, a distinction it continues to hold as of this writing. True, more of those installations are on phones. There are still more tablets using Apple's iPadOS, but Android is making up ground there, too.
The Messerschmitt Bf 110 From Under the Canopy: Poland, the Battle of Britain and After
For all of the 70-year-later speculation about World War II aircraft, few planes get a wider mix of reviews than Germany’s Messerschmitt Bf 110 Zerstorer (Destroyer). It was 2,000-plus horsepower-worth of flying contradictions and strategic design that probably seemed logical before the outset of the war. But as the war drew on, the 110 proved to be unsuited to the role for which it was designed. Instead, it found its strength in the niche roles of battlefield attack aircraft and night fighter.
The Messerschmitt Bf 110 From Under the Canopy: The Russian Front
Today, there are only a few examples of intact Bf 110s still in existence, and there are not many people left who sat under its canopy. Fortunately, we were able to sit down with someone who spent most of the war with this aircraft. “Luther Haarte” flew the first half of the war as a radio operator/gunner, seeing firsthand the Blitz over England – and later fought in Russia. After being wounded twice in Russia, he was grounded.
World Agriculture Network
Eric Klein has been around animals all his life. He grew up on his family’s hobby farm in New Jersey, and he would sometimes do work for other farmers nearby. After college, he worked on a cattle ranch out West, and today he and his wife operate Hidden Stream Farm in Elgin, Minnesota, where they practice sustainable farming and finish grass-fed beef, deep-bedded hogs, and pasture chickens.
Building a Culture of Farm Safety
“The average fatality costs a family farm $1 million dollars,” said Frank Gasperini, president of the Agricultural Safety and Health Council of America. He is a straight-talker whose career involves looking at grim statistics and helping other organizations make a difference.
Making the Most of Every Drop: Research and Technology for Smarter Irrigation - World Agriculture Network
Last year will be remembered by a lot of growers as a time when more water came from below their feet than above their heads. It was an El Niño year, which always promises extreme and erratic weather patterns – and 2016 did not disappoint. According to USDA data, drought touched almost 1,000 counties across the country in 2016. The entire states of California, Nevada, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Alabama fell under drought.
50-plus Years of Center-pivot Irrigation
When Coloradan-turned-Nebraskan Frank Zybach started piecing together his first experimental center-pivot irrigation system in 1947, he was on the cusp of nothing short of starting an agricultural revolution. The rickety contraption was basically a span of pipes only a few feet off the ground, suspended by guy wires, driven by metal wheels, and dragged over the ground by skids. It looked like a Rube Goldberg device for wetting soil.
D-Day: Horace Flack, Margaret Flack, and the USS Harding
For sailor Horace Flack, the war started before he was old enough to enlist. Flack wasn’t 18 years old yet when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. At that time, he was away from his hometown of Hendersonville, N.C., attending college at Virginia Tech – then commonly known as VPI. When they were old enough, he and some friends enlisted together. The young men all chose the Navy, but were each given different duties and destinations.
The Messerschmitt Bf 110 From Under the Canopy: The Me 210, the Me 410, and the End
Today, there are only a few examples of intact Bf 110s still in existence, and there are not many people left who sat under its canopy. Fortunately, we were able to sit down with someone who spent most of the war with this aircraft. “Luther Haarte” flew the first half of the war as a radio operator/gunner, seeing firsthand the Blitz over England – and later fought in Russia. After being wounded twice in Russia, he was grounded.
